        Financial literacy is believed to play an important role in understanding investors’ behavior both in advanced and emerging stock markets.  While previous studies have shown a positive association between improved financial literacy levels and the quality and performance of investors’ decisions, the dynamics of this process has not been adequately examined. This study develops an empirical model explaining the decision-making process that integrates the impact of investors’ financial literacy, emotions, and risk perceptions on investment decisions focusing on the financial markets of the Islamic Republic of Iran, mainly represented by the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). In particular, a three-dimensional process is used to provide a more robust measure of financial literacy represented by financial attitude, financial behavior and financial knowledge covering both basic and advanced financial knowledge levels. Using a large data set on investment behavior at the TSE in 2016, we find, unlike previous studies, no evidence on the impact of financial literacy on investors’ risk perception in Iran. On the other hand, financial literacy, risk perception and emotions collectively and significantly affect investors’ decisions at the TSE. We further find some evidence of gender specific effects.

        Purpose: Despite the numerous exploratory, conceptual, and empirical investigations that have been conducted in the fields of economics, finance, business, and management on financial behavior and literacy, no comprehensive science mapping has been presented to date. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify trends in the research field through the synthesis of knowledge structures.Methodology: A bibliometric investigation was conducted on a selection of 1,138 documents in the realm of financial literacy and financial behavior, utilizing a scientific search strategy implemented on the Web of Science database during the 1995-2022 period. The study was carried out using Biblioshiny, a web-based application that is part of the Bibliometrix package designed in R-language. The software's automated workflow facilitated the identification of distinguished journals, authors, countries, articles, and themes, and enabled the conduction of citation, co-citation, and social network analyses.Findings: The findings indicate that financial literacy and behavior have developed as an interdisciplinary domain over time. Initially, researchers concentrated on demographic and socioeconomic factors, but the domain later expanded to encompass themes such as behavioral and psychological constructs that impact financial behavior. This research not only unveils the conceptual framework of the domain but also its intellectual and social structure. The study offers valuable insights into areas that require further research.Originality / Value: In the past, a great deal of theoretical and practical research has been carried out on financial literacy and behavior in various countries, covering diverse fields such as economics, finance, psychology, and consumer behavior. One of the major contributions of this study is that it integrates and unites scattered literature in this area, and identifies important sources, authors, and documents, while examining the link between financial literacy and financial behavior.

        Social development is the process of creating fundamental transformations with the aim of social integration, social cohesion, and accountability of facilities brokers and powerful organizations, which can have economic consequences due to its multidimensional nature. Among these consequences, we can refer to the category of financial stability. In addition, financial inclusion and financial literacy are two other concepts that can be related to financial stability. In this regard, in this research, the short-term and long-term effects of financial literacy, financial inclusion and social development on financial stability in 17 OPEC member countries including Algeria, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Solomon Islands, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Ecuador, Angola, Venezuela, Nigeria, Gabon, Guinea, Congo and Indonesia are covered during the years 2010 to 2023. In order to analyze the data, the panel data regression method with the autoregression approach with PARDL distribution breaks has been used. The findings of the research showed that the promotion of social development can have a positive and strengthening role in the financial stability of the studied countries in the short and long term. Other findings showed that financial inclusion had a negative effect in the short term, but a positive and significant effect on financial stability in the studied countries in the long term. It was also observed that finally, financial literacy has been able to improve financial stability in the studied countries both in the short term and in the long term. Based on this, it is concluded that social development, due to its broad dimensions, as well as financial inclusion and financial literacy, should be considered as effective factors on financial stability in the countries under review, both in the short term and in the long term. There should be an opinion. Manuscript profile
