?:abstract
  • Inglehart’s short postmaterialism index uses partial ranking of four items to classify respondents within three classes, i.e. a materialist, a postmaterialist and a mixed category. An appropriate technique for validating this index is a latent class choice model. Analysing data from the Eurobarometer surveys with this approach confirms the existence of a postmaterialist class. However, a materialist class cannot be identified irrevocably. Rather, an ‘authoritarian’ or ‘conservative’ latent class has to be distinguished from an ‘economic materialist’ latent class. As such, there is empirical evidence for theoretical arguments that have been raised in the past, even within the restricted framework of the Inglehart thesis. Furthermore, I demonstrate that the cohort variable is unrelated to the ‘economic materialist’ latent class, putting strain on adherents of the scarcity hypothesis. Education proves to be the key covariate of ‘economic’ materialism, whereas cohort differences are pronounced in the case of ‘maintaining order in the nation’. Country differences also shift depending on the latent class model that is selected. (xsd:string)
