Parental attitudes to pocket money/allowances for children

Article Abstract:

The demographic and psychographic predictors of specific parental attitudes towards pocket-money allowances for their children are considered. It was found that parents are cautious, egalitarian and rather protective. There was a considerable degree of consensus regarding encouraging children to save and the fact that amounts given should rise linearly with age.

The relationship between work and economic values

Article Abstract:

The results of a survey of 275 British adults revealed political beliefs to be the best predictor of economic values and work beliefs. The study also identified social comparison as a predictor of those values and beliefs. The results suggest that individuals' socio-economic belief systems, the free-enterprise system, for example, are coherent.
