Second, the analysis of the difference in the interpersonal relationship based on their general characteristics revealed differences based on gender, grade, monthly income (allowance), monthly expense, items of expenditure, and hobby.

본 연구는 성인대학생과 일반대학생의 물질주의 가치관 및 대인관계의 상관관계를 알아보고 두 집단을 비교하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 전국에 재학 중인 성인대학생 228명, 일반대학생 216명을 대상으로 SPSS Statistics 25.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 첫째, 성인대학생과 일반대학생의 일반적 특성에 따른 물질주의 가치관의 차이를 알아본 결과, 성별, 종교, 학교형태, 학년, 한 달 월급(용돈), 한 달 지출금액, 지출항목, 취미에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 성인대학생과 일반대학생의 일반적 특성에 따른 대인관계의 차이를 알아본 결과 성별, 학년, 한 달 월급(용돈), 한 달 지출금액, 지출항목, 취미에 따라 차이가 있었다. 셋째, 성인대학생과 일반대학생의 물질주의 가치관과 대인관계의 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 넷째, 성인대학생과 일반대학생의 물질주의 가치관은 대인관계의 하위요인에 모두 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 이상의 연구결과는 성인대학생과 일반대학생 구분 없이 물질주의 가치관이 대인관계에 부정적인 영향을 미친다는 점을 시사한다.
