Study 2 yielded more evidence for the internal consistency and
one-factor structure of the GQ-6. As in Study 1, people who
indicated that they tended to experience gratitude—as measured
with both the GQ-6 and the gratitude adjectives scale—were
considerably higher in positive affectivity and well-being. Moreover,
they reported being more forgiving when other people anger
or hurt them and more spiritually minded than did their less
grateful counterparts. Study 2 is particularly noteworthy because it
demonstrates that the correlates of the grateful disposition are
essentially the same in adults as in university students.
The consistent findings from Studies 1 and 2 led us to consider
two other potential correlates of the grateful disposition: materialism
and envy. We expected that the disposition toward gratitude
would be negatively related to materialism because grateful people
probably do not focus on acquiring and maintaining possessions
and wealth; rather, they would be expected to focus on savoring
the positive experiences and outcomes—both material and nonmaterial—
that they have already experienced. Thus, we expect
that people could be both dispositionally grateful and strongly
materialistic only with great difficulty. Moreover, a focus on the
acquisition and consumption of material goods as a source of
happiness is to some extent incompatible with the strong orientation
to other people that grateful people manifest through their
high levels of Agreeableness and other Agreeableness-related
traits.
In a related vein, gratitude is probably somewhat incompatible
with envy, which is a negative emotional state characterized by
resentment, inferiority, longing, and frustration about other people’s
material and nonmaterial successes (Parrott & Smith, 1993).
Grateful people, who tend to focus on the positive contributions of
others to their well-being, probably devote less attention to comparing
their outcomes with those of other people and experience
