Abstract
Results from survey research using regression techniques indicate that disagreement over family finances for men was a function of management practices (negative), years married (negative), and wife's employment, with those who had part‐time employed wives reporting more disagreement than those with non‐employed wives. Disagreement over family finances for women was a function of frequency of communication (negative), perceived future financial security (negative), and wife's employment, with full‐time employed wives reporting less disagreement over finances than non‐employed wives. Since the stress and reduced maximization of resources implied by the high percentage of families reporting intense disagreement over finances ultimately affect their well‐being, it is imperative that the skills of financial management and communication be developed through counselling and education.
