有三项关于非食物囤积的研究报告。 研究结果支持囤积量表的信度和效度。此外,研究结果表明囤积行为的一些特征。在大学生和社区志愿者中,囤积与优柔寡断、完美主义(特别是适应不良的评价性关注)和强迫症状有关。囤积者倾向于购买额外的东西,以免被发现没有必要的物品,他们在钱包,口袋和汽车中携带更多的“以防万一”物品。儿童期和青少年期开始出现囤积症。囤积者比非囤积者有更多的一级亲属过度储蓄,囤积者结婚的可能性更小。没有证据表明囤积与物质匮乏有关。有人提出了一个模型,将囤积概念化为一种与优柔寡断和完美主义有关的回避行为。 储蓄可以让囤积者避免做出扔掉东西的决定,以及伴随着这个决定的担忧(担心犯了错误)。此外,它还可以让囤积者避免与珍惜的财产分开时的情绪反应,并增加控制感。
Three studies of nonfood hoarding are reported. Findings support the reliability and validity of a Hoarding Scale. Furthermore, the findings indicate a number of features of hoarding behavior. Hoarding was associated with indecisiveness, perfectionism (especially maladaptive evaluative concern) and obsessive compulsive symptoms among college students and community volunteers. Hoarders tended to buy extra things in order not to be caught without a needed item, and they carried more 'just-in-case' items in purses, pockets and cars. Onset of hoarding was childhood and adolescence. Hoarders had more first degree relatives who engaged in excessive saving than nonhoarders, and hoarders were less likely to be married. There was no evidence to suggest that hoarding was related to material deprivation. A model was suggested which conceptualizes hoarding as an avoidance behavior tied to indecisiveness and perfectionism. Saving allows the hoarder to avoid the decision required to throw something away, and the worry which accompanies that decision (worry that a mistake has been made). Also, it allows hoarders to avoid emotional reactions which accompany parting with cherished possessions, and results in increased perception of control.
