    (Universidad EAFIT, 2025) León Cardona, Thomas; Gutiérrez Gutiérrez, Brayan; Cruz Castañeda, Vivian
    Financial education from an early age is fundamental, as it allows for efficient management of economic resources, reduces poverty, and improves social well-being. In the Colegio Seminario Menor de Nuestra Señora del Rosario and Instituto Universitario de Caldas in Manizales, a diagnostic survey was conducted on 115 eleventh-grade students to identify their sociodemographic characteristics and learning opportunities in the area of finance. To address this problem, a financial capacity index was designed, which was correlated with the main demographic variables of the sample through a multiple regression model. In addition, a methodological guide for financial education was constructed with a pedagogical approach based on learning through technological tools. The guide was adapted to the needs of the students to encourage the appropriation of the topic in a real context. This initiative will benefit not only students in their school stage but also in their adult life, promoting a financially literate society.

    Value segmentation of adolescents: a performance of appearance
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2018-05-04) Ceballos L.M.; Bejarano M.
    An understanding of youth culture is fundamental for attracting new consumers. However, few qualitative studies have analysed adolescent fashion consumer behaviour. Utilising a dramaturgical framework, this qualitative research aims to understand the adolescent’s relationship to fashion by identifying the values guiding adolescent social performance. The ethnographic study proceeded with 16 participants between the ages of 13 and 18 from various socio-economic strata in Medellín, Colombia. Four value segments were used to describe these teens’ performances: Trendy, Undercover, Luxury Pink, and Free Style. The values of these adolescent consumers prioritised ‘being well respected’, ‘a sense of belonging’, ‘excitement’, and ‘fun and enjoyment of life’. Findings indicated that while some of these emerging market adolescents adhered to global generalisations made about teenagers, certain specific contextual influences were found to express their values and, by extension, their fashion wants. Additional theoretical contributions were found by examining differences in the expression of values across value segments. © 2017, © The Textile Institute and Informa UK Ltd 2017.

    Objective. To identify subjective experiences when consuming cannabis in a group of young adults in Medellín (Colombia). Conceptual References. The concepts of marijuana/cannabis; subjective experiences; pleasure and discomfort; social, labor, and academic consequences of cannabis consumption; and the vicissitudes of young adults are described. Method. Qualitative study whose main instrument is a semi-structured interview applied to 8 cannabis consumers in Medellín, Colombia. Results: the obtained results allowed to identify that the causes of consumption are related to the social sphere due to casual invitations from close people, also that there are both experiences of pleasure and discomfort, although they tend to be more pleasant like listening to music, euphoria, and greater relaxation; and that the consequences, although not seen in the short term, are generated in the long term and affect memory, coordination, or concentration. Conclusions: cannabis consumption occurs for different reasons and has different consequences, which depending on the moment they are analyzed, can be positive or negative, being more positive in the short term and more negative in the long term.
