NEFE Research Team Announces Distribution Strategy on Comprehensive Scale Validation Project

Share:
 

NEFE continues to commit time and resources toward providing the research community tools to improve their analysis and conclusions. The next project is the release of outcomes of a scale validation project led by NEFE’s Research Team.

For nearly two years, NEFE worked with subject matter experts to examine the numerous existing scales used to measure financial education data. The entire journey of this work is the subject of a year-long release of content throughout 2024, which includes work through NEFE’s communication channels and well-respected external resources.

“The need to determine which scales to utilize in our field has been under-examined and under-explored, which makes it the perfect project for NEFE to undertake. This work will allow our colleagues and partners to have the most reliable and impactful tools to move the field forward.”

Joshua Caraballo, Psy.D., NEFE’s managing director of research
