Meaning of Money (Mom): Exploratory Investigation of the Relevance of Generative Theory of Money (GTM) in South Africa

This research examined the cultural Meaning of Money (MOM), as measured by psychometric questionnaires. It reported on a study of young people in Limpopo, Sovenga, South Africa, where over ninety-seven undergraduate students completed six different measures of the mMeaning of Money (MOM). The result indicated that the different measures had high significant correlation, implying that they were measuring similar, generic, or common dimension of the MOM belief; whereas there were no clear relationship between age, religion, parents income and place of residence; females tended to score lower than males; blacks tended to receive higher scores than white; highly educated tended to receive lower scores than less educated; people who voted in the very recent national election tended to receive higher scores than those who did not. The meaning of money, as measured by money metaphor scale was highly, significantly correlated with need for power, environmental subjugation, good nature of human, evil nature of human, Machiavellianism, irritation-, materialistic value, power distance, masculinity; but received low correlation with political value. Indeed, of all statistical predictors, materialistic value is the strongest predictor of the meaning of money in the South African sample. Overall, this sample of young students appeared to have high MOM scores as measured with MMS.
