The features of the relationship between money attitudes and interpersonal interaction in young men and young women
Introduction. There is an opinion in our society that if a person attaches great importance to money, he/she experiences difficulties in building close relationships. The reason is the opposition of material values to spiritual values, which implies the idea of their incompatibility. However, there is a lack of research that would set itself the task of proving this statement. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of the relationship between money attitudes and interpersonal interaction in young men and young women. Materials and methods.

Rukavishnikov) was used to study interpersonal interactions. The U-Mann-Whitney criterion and the Pearson correlation criterion were used as methods of statistical data processing.
