Abstract:
Research has shown that television viewing cultivates a materialistic worldview in children. However, other socialization factors may also influence children materialism. The results of two studies (initial study plus direct replication, N = 818) of parent-child dyads with 14- to 17-year-old children support the first path but not the second: The relation between parent TV viewing and child materialism is mediated through parent materialism. Child TV viewing is positively correlated with child materialism, but is nonsignificant when parent materialism is controlled.
