41. One (financial well-being) model fits all? : testing the multidimensional subjective financial well-being scale across nine countriesAngela Sorgente, Žan Lep, Maja Zupančič, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: A multidimensional model of emerging adults’ subjective financial well-being was proposed (Sorgente and Lanz, Int Journal of Behavioral Development, 43(5), 466–478 2019). The authors also developed a 5-factor scale (the Multidimensional Subjective Financial Well-being Scale, MSFWBS) intending to measure this construct in the European context. To date, data using this instrument have been collected in nine countries: Austria, Canada, Finland, India, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, and Turkey. In the current study, data from these countries were analysed to test the validity of this model internationally. In particular, using an international sample of 4,475 emerging adults, we collected the following kinds of validity evidence for the MSFWBS: score structure, reliability, generalizability, convergent, and criterion-related evidence. Findings suggest that the MSFWBS (1) yields valid and reliable scores, and (2) works well in individualistic and economically developed countries, producing comparable scores. Implications for researchers and practitioners are discussed.

42. Predicting satisfaction with money management and life satisfaction in parents of emerging adult studentsMaja Zupančič, Žan Lep, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Many parents cope with the prolonged financial dependence of their emerging adult children and problems arising from sharing a household, which may challenge parental satisfaction with money management (SMM) and life satisfaction (LS). We created and tested a conceptual model of potential pathways to parental SMM and LS. Data were collected in a sample of 482 student–parent pairs via an online survey that included adjusted questionnaires on financial functioning (Shim et al., Journal of Youth and Adolescence 39:1457–1470, 2010) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., Journal of Personality Assessment 49:71–75, 1985). Relying on the model of financial satisfaction from the student perspective (Sirsch et al., Emerging Adulthood 8:509–520, 2020), we proposed pathways of the family SES, financial parenting (explicit teaching and financial behavior; parent report; 22.8% fathers), and parent–child financial relationships (student report; Mage = 19.94; 45.2% males) to parental SMM and LS. We also anticipated intermediate relations of financial parenting with the students' self-reported financial learning outcomes (cognitive and behavioral/relational). The SES, proactive parental financial behavior, and favorable parent–child financial relationships predicted parental SMM and LS. Financial parenting was linked to the student's positive financial learning outcomes, but only financial knowledge further influenced the financial relationship with their parents. The findings suggest the benefits of successful parental financial socialization for both the offspring's finance-related outcomes and their parents' satisfaction.

43. Vertikalni okvir za poučevanje govornega nastopanja v osnovni šoli za celovito oblikovanje govork in govorcevJanja Žmavc, Mojca Cestnik, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: V prispevku obravnavava predlog za poučevanje govornega nastopanja v osnovni šoli. Kot eno ključnih točk poudariva pomen procesnega in celovitega usvajanja govornega nastopanja v okviru osnovnošolske vertikale, ki ga osvetliva skozi obravnavo nekaterih skupnih točk med antičnim modelom retoričnega izobraževanja in sodobnimi konceptualizacijami govornega sporazumevanja. V drugem delu predstaviva nekatera problemska mesta v veljavnem učnem načrtu, skupaj s tristopenjskim okvirom za poučevanje govornega nastopanja. Meniva, da tako zamišljen pristop omogoča uspešnejše razvijanje zmožnosti suverenega in avtentičnega javnega nastopanja.

48. Is the order of learning numerals universal? : evidence from eight countries and six languagesLee Copping, Peter Tymms, Gabriela Aleksic, Tiago Bartholo, Sarah J. Howie, Mariane Koslinski Campelo, Christine Merrell, Maša Vidmar, Helen R. Wildy, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Cramman et al. (2018) proposed that numerical symbol identification may constitute a universally predictive measure of early mathematical development. While a broad pathway to learning number symbols is unsurprising, lack of systematic variation in acquisition order relative to factors such as teaching, age, country, progression stage, is. This study evidences unidimensionality of measurement of the order of ability clusters of numbers, showing that variations are minor across eight countries and, importantly, six instructional languages. This invariance suggests early symbol identification could represent a universal measurement which could a) instructionally inform teaching and learning of classroom mathematics, b) work predictively as an educational research tool and c) offer a foundation for valid international comparisons of the mathematical development of children. Tentatively, this study suggests numerical symbol identification may be a universal measure to assess mathematical cognition in early years education that is unaffected by language of instruction, gender, time of assessment and country.

49. What makes me happy and what worries me? A crossnational comparison of stressors and resources for stress relief among youthMichaela Wright, Franziska Reitegger, Manja Veldin, Maša Vidmar, Katarzyina Borzucka-Sitkiewicz, Marcin Gierczyk, Katarzyna Kowalczewska-Grabowska, Barbara Gasteiger-Klicpera, 2024, original scientific article Abstract: Numerous evidence-based programs aim to promote youth mental health. Unfortunately, however, they often fail to engage the target group and lack cultural sensitivity. The present study addresses these issues by using a participatory approach to look at variations of stressors and resources for stress relief among students (12-15 years) in three European countries. Two participatory workshops were conducted in three schools in Austria, Poland and Slovenia, with a total of 81 students participating in the first workshop, and 83 in the second. This study presents the findings derived from two distinct participatory activities wherein participants reported their stressors (Relevant Topics activity) and resources (Photovoice activity). Overall, the study revealed remarkable similarities in stressors and resources across the three countries, but differences were also identified. Stressors relating to interpersonal relationships, school, and self-concept were common themes. While concerns regarding health, future, and global issues were less frequently mentioned, they remained persistent across all countries, an indication of their growing relevance amid today’s multiple crises. Animals, sports, and relationships emerged as the most frequently reported resources. Creative arts and expression, music, and calm activities like reading, and spending time in nature were also frequently cited. Notably, engagement with digital devices or social media emerged neither as a common stressor nor as a notable personal resource. The findings will be used to inform the content development of a culturally sensitive digital mental health promotion program, covering salient topics comprehensively while ensuring diversity awareness.
