“…Our Ohio lottery program results differ from those in the study by Walkey et al 10 and Lang et al 12 but corroborate more recent studies. 11 , 46 , 47 The segmented regression approach in the study by Walkey et al 10 does not involve the comparison of treated and control units and, as such, cannot account for factors external to the time series. 48 , 49 Lang et al 12 did not match the covariates in deriving the synthetic control.…”

“…An interrupted time-series analysis of daily vaccinations in Ohio did not find a meaningful association of lottery incentives with vaccine uptake. 10 Two recent reports on Ohio’s vaccine lottery program 11 , 12 differ in their conclusion. The available studies are limited to a single state, and the results may not be generalizable to other states, which likely differ in key contextual factors related to public health.…”

Key Points Question Have vaccine lottery programs in the United States been associated with increases in the COVID-19 vaccination rate? Findings This cross-sectional study of 403 714 adult participants in the Household Pulse Survey and state daily vaccination rates found that vaccine lottery programs were associated with an increase in COVID-19 vaccination rates overall and in some states but not in others. Meaning These findings suggest that policy makers should take the heterogeneous response to vaccine incentive lottery programs into account when implementing similar policies.

“…However, financial behaviours and attitudes among women were more positive than men despite the better financial knowledge among men, in line with the previous findings [ 15 ]. This could be because the linkage of knowledge with behaviour and attitude is not always evident [ 36 , 37 ]. In addition, we find that the unexplained parts account for the gender gaps, as traditionally, women tend to be more risk averse and have the higher propensity to save [ 38 – 41 ].…”

Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the association between financial literacy and age as well as gender differences in financial literacy. Methods We analyse a sample of 25,000 individuals from ‘The Financial Literacy Survey 2016’ conducted by the Central Council for Financial Services Information (Bank of Japan). The analysis focuses on the relationship of age and financial literacy as well as that of age and self-rated financial knowledge. To consider factors accounting for gender differences in financial literacy, we use the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition method. To further our understanding of financial literacy, we conduct additional analyses on financial behaviour and attitude. Results Although age is associated with increased financial literacy (Men, β: 0.249, standard error [SE]: 0.030; Women, 0.354, SE: 0.026), the growth rate decreases among the older respondents (Men, β: -0.002, SE: 0.000; Women, -0.003, SE: 0.000). However, the association between age and self-rated financial knowledge among men moves in the opposite direction (Age, β: -0.021, SE: 0.009, Age2, β: 0.000, SE: 0.000). Furthermore, female respondents are likely to be less financially literate than their male counterparts (β: -0.586, SE: 0.095) due to gender differences in the distribution of the factors that affect financial literacy (specifically education), their responses to financial literacy, and the interactions of these effects. In contrast to knowledge-based financial literacy, financial behaviour and attitudes among women are more preferable to those among men, namely, more premeditated. Conclusion Financial literacy increases until about one’s early 60s, after which it declines, while confidence in financial literacy reflects the inverse trend, especially among men. Additionally, men are more financially literate than women; however, these differences could be mitigated through education. Meanwhile, financial behaviour and attitudes among men are less premeditated. Thus, policies are needed that can help older adults with their financial decision-making, enhance women’s financial literacy, and improve men’s financial behaviours and attitudes.

“…During the COVID-19 pandemic, these policies range from free Krispy Kreme donuts, to staterun lotteries (Walkey, Law, and Bosch 2021;Brehm, Brehm, and Saavedra 2021;Barber and West 2021), to workplace requirements that require vaccination (Klompas, Pearson, and Morris 2021). These policies are aimed to address the primary external benefit of COVID-19 vaccination's impact on COVID-19 transmission.…”
