Article Synopsis
- The study explored how financial literacy and behavior affected health-related quality of life during COVID-19 among low-income workers in Malaysia.
- Researchers surveyed 1,186 respondents using a self-administered questionnaire, finding the majority were employed, earned less than RM 2500 monthly, and had no chronic medical conditions.
