Material Consumption Comparison

Material Consumption Comparison is a construct within the study of upward social comparison that specifically refers to the evaluation of one's own material possessions, lifestyle, or consumption patterns relative to those of others perceived as superior in socioeconomic status, serving to distinguish itself from other forms of social comparison by focusing explicitly on tangible and economic indicators of success.
