“…Fifth, other variables, which have been shown to be important predictors of savings in adulthood (e.g., household income, household size, net worth, or home ownership), have not been consistently controlled for in studies on young people (Furnham, 1999;Warnarr & Van Praag, 1997).

However, research using an experimental design with random assignment to reduce potential selection bias may be one of the best ways to examine the relationship between young people's savings at different time points (Engel & Schutt, 2005;Rosenbaum, 2002b).…”
