Antecedents and Consequences of Materialistic Values: A Systematic Literature Review

Keywords: Materialistic Values

Abstract: Using a systematic literature review technique, authors analyze and develop an understanding of the antecedents and consequences of materialistic values being studied within literature. Out of 1,191 articles, 191 articles are thoroughly analyzed pertaining to the scope of the study. Even though materialistic values have been discussed in literature, this stream of literature lacks in the context of work setting and thus far no reviews have been conducted focusing on materialistic values in the organizational context. This paper thus looks to consolidate the literature into theoretical frameworks. In addition, the authors propose theoretical developments along with the future research directions.
