The present study examines the short-term changes and longitudinal relations between adolescents' materialism and prosocial behavior toward family, friends, and strangers over a year. A total of 434 Chinese adolescents (mean age at Time 1 = 11.27; 54% girls) participated in the two time points. From 6 grade to 7 grade, boys' and girls' materialism increased, whereas their prosocial behavior toward family, friends, and strangers declined, despite the stable trend in boys' prosocial behavior toward strangers. Furthermore, a cross-lagged model was conducted and the results showed that, adolescent materialism was associated longitudinally with decreased prosocial behavior toward friends and strangers, but not toward family. However, earlier prosocial behavior toward family, friends, and strangers were not associated with subsequent adolescent materialism. The findings point toward an understanding of materialism as a precursor rather than an outcome or byproduct to prosocial behavior.
本研究考察了青少年物质主义与对家庭、朋友和陌生人的亲社会行为在一年内的短期变化和纵向关系。共有 434 名中国青少年（第一次测量时的平均年龄为 11.27 岁，其中 54%为女孩）参与了这两个时间点的研究。从六年级到七年级，男孩和女孩的物质主义水平都有所上升，而他们对家庭、朋友和陌生人的亲社会行为则有所下降，尽管男孩对陌生人的亲社会行为呈稳定趋势。此外，还进行了交叉滞后模型分析，结果表明，青少年的物质主义与对朋友和陌生人的亲社会行为呈负相关，但与对家庭的亲社会行为无关。然而，早期对家庭、朋友和陌生人的亲社会行为与随后青少年的物质主义无关。这些发现表明，物质主义可以被理解为亲社会行为的前因，而不是结果或副产品。
