摘要

目的本研究旨在通过将金融知识与数字支付意识相关联、研究媒体焦虑和金融安全以及性别分析,调查 COVID-19 大流行对意大利消费者支付行为的影响。设计/方法/途径在 2021 年 11 月至 2022 年 2 月期间对 836 名意大利公民进行了在线调查,通过考虑行为特征和金融知识的各个方面,调查了消费者对无现金支付的态度。分析结果表明,对感染 COVID-19 的恐惧和金融知识水平对意大利人的支付行为有直接影响,两者的权重完全不同。由于媒体传播有关该流行病的消息而产生的恐惧间接影响了消费者的非现金态度。性别多组分析的初步结果显示,非现金支付在男性和女性亚群中是相同的。它研究了 COVID-19 大流行对人们支付选择的影响,评估了他们的知识,并考虑了媒体引发的焦虑的影响。通过将这些因素结合在一起,该研究从性别角度进行了分析,从而让人们了解在大流行病期间金融行为是如何形成的。

Cashless payment: behavior changes and gender dynamics during the COVID-19 pandemic

Purpose

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the consumer payment behavior in Italy by correlating financial literacy with digital payment awareness, examining media anxiety and financial security, and including a gender analysis.

Design/methodology/approach

Consumers’ attitudes toward cashless payments were investigated using an online survey conducted from November 2021 to February 2022 on a sample of 836 Italian citizens by considering the behavioral characteristics and aspects of financial literacy. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses and to determine whether the model was invariant by gender.

Findings

The analysis showed that the fear of contracting COVID-19 and the level of financial literacy had a direct influence on the payment behavior of Italians, which was completely different in its weighting. Fear due to the spread of news regarding the pandemic in the media indirectly influenced consumers’ noncash attitude. The preliminary results of the gender multigroup analysis showed that cashless payment was the same in the male and female subpopulations.

Originality/value

This research is noteworthy because of its interconnected examination. It examined the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on people’s payment choices, assessed their knowledge, and considered the influence of media-induced anxiety. By combining these factors, the study offered an analysis from a gender perspective, providing understanding of how financial behaviors were shaped during the pandemic.
