Bibliolater 📚 📜 🖋<p>🔴 **Unpacking the effects of materialism on interpersonal relationships: A cognitive approach**</p><p>“_Three studies (N = 1389) employing correlational and experimental methodologies showed that materialism leads to heightened expectations and standards for a significant other, which are associated with poorer interpersonal outcomes. Specifically, materialism heightens the ideal standards that one has for a close other around achievement (e.g., ambition) and positive image (e.g., attractiveness), which are linked to higher conflict and lower relational satisfaction._”</p><p>Moldes, O.
