An Empirical Study of the Relationship Between Young Adults Consumers Characterized by Religiously-Oriented Family Communication Environment and Materialism
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between young adult consumers who are characterized by a particular family communication pattern at home, and their level of materialistic values. The data was collected through self-administered questionnaires. A general profile of the respondents is discussed in the study, and the sample consisted of 956 respondents. The majority of the respondents were Malays followed by Chinese and Indians. The proportion of female respondents was higher than the male respondents. Most of the respondents were single and in the age group of between 19-29 years old. Pearson correlation was employed to examine the associations between the main constructs of the proposed model. Specifically, it was found that the correlation coefficient between materialism and socio-oriented family communication, concept-oriented family communication and religiously-oriented family communication were positive and significant. Internal consistency reliability assessment using Cronbach coefficient alpha revealed that all the four dimensions had high reliability. The implications, significance and limitations of the study are discussed. Key words : Materialism, socio-oriented family communication, concept-oriented family communication, religiously-oriented family communication, young adults. RESUME : L’objectif de cette etude est d’examiner la relation entre les jeunes adultes consommateurs qui sont caracterises par un schema de communication de la famille notamment a la maison, et leur niveau de valeurs materialistes. Les donnees ont ete collectees par le biais questionnaires autoadministres. Un profil general des repondants est discute dans l’etude, et l’echantillon se composait de 956 repondants. la majorite des repondants ont ete suivis par les Chinois Malais et les Indiens. la proportion de repondants de sexe feminin etait plus eleve que les repondants de sexe masculin. la plupart des repondants etaient celibataires et dans le groupe d’âge des entre 19-29 ans. de correlation de Pearson a ete utilise pour examiner les associations entre les constructions principales du modele propose. Plus precisement, il a ete constate que le coefficient de correlation entre le materialisme et de la communication de la famille socio-orientee, la communication familiale oriente concept et religieusement-communication axee sur la famille sont positifs et significatifs. evaluation de la fiabilite interne coherence a l'aide du coefficient alpha de Cronbach a revele que tous les quatre dimensions ont une grande fiabilite. le implications, la signification et les limites de l'etude sont discutes. Mots cles : Materialisme, La communication familiale socio-orientee, La communication familiale oriente concept, La communication familiale d’orientation religieuse, Les jeunes adultes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
