competencias financieras, educación financiera, adventistas, brecha de género, inclusión financieraResumen
El estudio analiza las competencias financieras de los miembros de la iglesia adventista de origen hispano y anglosajón en la Asociación del Gran Nueva York (GNYC) en 2023. Mediante un enfoque cuantitativo y comparativo, los resultados revelaron diferencias significativas en las competencias financieras entre ambos grupos, influenciadas por factores como género, nivel educativo, ingresos y lugar de nacimiento. Se destaca que los hombres y los participantes con mayor nivel educativo e ingresos
muestran mejores competencias financieras. Los hallazgos subrayan la importancia de la educación financiera para reducir las brechas observadas y mejorar la inclusión financiera en poblaciones diversas.
