        abstract = {A research in the Belagavi District examined 
the role of academic exposure and cultural 
determinants influencing stock market awareness 
among management students in a sample survey of 100 
respondents. Field data collection utilized a structured 
questionnaire on the various aspects of stock market 
understanding, financial literacy, investment behavior, 
and decision-making factors. Data analysis utilized MS 
Excel, T-Test, and IBM SPSS software and yielded 
meaningful findings on the stock market concept 
understanding among students, financial education 
exposure, real-life experience in investment, and 
cultural beliefs influencing investment. Findings 
revealed a moderate to high degree of awareness of 
basic stock market concepts, reflecting the theoretical 
knowledge of the students while reflecting limited 
practical application. Academic exposure in the form of 
courses and financial workshops was the prime factor 
in developing stock market understanding. Traditional 
investment options within families, including real estate 
and gold, influenced the investment behaviors of the 
students, resulting in a conservative approach towards 
stock market involvement. The study emphasized the 
addition of experiential financial learning experiences, 
expanding financial literacy programs, and investment 
education advancement to equip students with the 
necessary confidence and abilities to engage in 
successful stock market participation.},
