This study examines the influence of mental accounting, financial attitudes, financial knowledge, and financial self-efficacy on the financial behavior of diligent students in using fintech. This study differs from previous research because it uses a sample of students who already have a business and often use fintech. Data collection was carried out through the distribution of questionnaires to respondents. This study found that financial attitudes and self-efficacy had a significant effect on financial behavior, while financial knowledge had no significant effect on financial self-efficacy and mental accounting. Mental accounting significantly affects financial attitudes, financial behavior, and financial self-efficacy. These findings prove the importance of mental accounting in increasing the confidence and effectiveness of students who often use fintech and have a business in making financial decisions. This research contributes to developing the theory of planned behavior in the context of financial behavior. It reveals that financial literacy does not necessarily increase financial self-efficacy and mental accounting, especially among students who often use fintech and are just starting a business.

This research is motivated by the low level of financial welfare among lecturers, which is influenced by the complexity of economic factors, financial behavior, and the development of financial technology. In the context of Muslim society, variables play a very important role in shaping financial satisfaction, especially if mediated by healthy financial behavior. The approach used is Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with the PRISMA protocol, which includes a literature search on the Google Scholar database using the Publish or Perish tool and Bibliometric and VOSviewer analysis of publications during 2014–2024 as many as 127 articles. The four independent variables have a positive influence on financial satisfaction, either directly or indirectly through financial behavior, with sharia financial literacy and financial technology occupying the most dominant position. The integration of the four variables in a single model makes a theoretical contribution to the development of a conceptual framework that integrates cognitive, behavioral, technological, and religious value dimensions. In this paper, the variable of qona'ah attitude is used which is rarely used in the concept of financial satisfaction. This study is mainly in data sources that only include open access literature in the 2014–2024 timeframe, which has the potential to ignore important findings from paid articles or publications prior to that period. For further research, it is recommended to test this mediation model in cross-border and cultural populations, as well as the exploration of the integration of other psychological variables such as financial self-efficacy.

The emergence of financial technology has resulted in the rapid expansion of digital financial services and products that are accessed and delivered through digital channels. However, such technology has also exposed changes in the financial behaviors of the millennial generation. Hence, this article analyzes how digital financial literacy impacts financial behavior in the Jordanian millennial generation. A survey method was performed with 627 individuals of millennial generations from several cities in Jordan. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was conducted to estimate the relationship between the research variables. The findings revealed that digital financial literacy with its dimensions, i.e., digital knowledge, digital experience, digital skills, and digital awareness had a positive impact on financial behavior. This article depicts the level of digital financial literacy among Jordan's millennial generation. Therefore, it suggested a set of recommendations revolving around developing and promoting financial education programs for Jordanian millennials in collaboration with educational institutions, government agencies, and financial institutions.

One of the main goals of every individual or household is to achieve financial well-being. Previous research has shown that various factors influence financial well-being. This research aims to develop an integrated family financial welfare model by examining various factors that affect it. This study uses data of 1,158 households taken using an online survey. The data is analyzed using a structural equation model. The results show that financial experience, financial knowledge, financial status, and marital status directly affect financial well-being. Financial behavior significantly mediates the influence of financial behavior, financial knowledge, and locus of control on financial well-being. Furthermore, marital status strengthens the effect of financial knowledge on financial well-being, but it does not strengthen the effect of financial experience on financial well-being. This study suggests that the Government and financial authorities need to improve further the effectiveness of financial literacy and financial inclusion programs and campaign for a more frugal life among households to avoid financial difficulties.
