- 요약All people interact with material objects and reckon with their impact on their lives. Current popular culture has a myriad of ways to describe the relationship between people and things. However, studies in psychology and consumer research focus mainly on the role of materialism. Researchers have primarily considered materialism to be either a personality trait (Belk, 1985) or a value (Richins & Dawson, 1992). Materialism research has generally found materialism to be a negative trait or value, leading to negative impacts on well-being (Dittmar et al., 2014). Conceiving of the relationship between people and objects as inherently negative may bias the outcomes of research on said relationship. In order to combat this bias toward a negative view on materialism, Shrum et al. (2013) proposed a functional definition of materialism which focuses on its use in allowing individuals to create and maintain their sense of identity. In addition to assisting in identity formation, other roles for possessions have been described which explore other ways individuals interact with objects: to seek meaning, to have experiences, to facilitate relationships, to learn, to explore values, to explore the self and identity, to remember, to serve a function, and to consider existential questions. Studies of the relationship between people and objects may benefit from organizing such diverse studies under an umbrella concept. This dissertation proposes one possible construct, called material orientation. Material orientation is the way individuals interact with material possessions. This dissertation describes a study using semi-structured interviews to identify possible commonalities in the ways participants interact with meaningful objects in their lives. The study identified six material orientations: relational, memory, object, utilitarian, emotional, and existential.
