13 Abstract CONCEPTUALIZING HOARDING BEHAVIOR AMONG ELDERLY WOMEN: A MIXED-METHODS APPROACH By Susan J. Murdock, M.S.W. A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Virginia Commonwealth University. Virginia Commonwealth University, 2006 Dissertation Committee Chairperson: Joseph Walsh, Ph.D. School of Social Work Hoarding in the con~munity involves substantial cluttering and impaired functioning, often exposing the hoarder to extensive health and safety risks. This research, based on Functionalism social theory, explores the three elements of hoarding-relentless acquisition, intense possessiveness of objects, and a reluctance to discard possessions-as a sociocultural phenomenon. The mixed methods methodology entailed a quantitative study involving a survey completed by 134 adult protective services workers throughout Virginia and a qualitative study of five randomly-selected adult protective services workers who volunteered for in-depth interviews. Findings revealed that adult protective services workers come in contact with very severe cases of hoarding, with over two-thirds of the cases cited having extremely xii
14 hazardous, unsafe, and cluttered living conditions. Similar to other research studies, hoarding was most prevalent among elderly women and the most common objects hoarded included printed materials such as newspapers, magazines, and junk mail. Factor analyses resulted in three factors with high loadings and correlations, particularly the factor that associates hoarding with a relentless need or desire to acquire more possessions. Content analyses of the qualitative data found that workers recognized several ways in which hoarding was functional, including emotional attachment to possessions, reducing stress, and providing meaning and identity. The mixed methods approach demonstrated that adult protective services workers tend to ascribe mental illness explanations to many hoarding cases, often equating hoarding to an addiction, although other published research finds only a nebulous connection between mental illness and hoarding behavior. Tliis research corroborates other studies that find that belief systems underlie hoarding behaviors, particularly how hoarders' possessions provide comfort and security; possessions are considered functional, valuable, and irreplaceable; and that the owner is responsible for maintaining control over possessions. The findings of this study have implications for social work practice and treatment models.... Xlll
15 Hoarding Among Elderly Women PROBLEM STATEMENT Introduction Hoarding is a universal issue that is insufficiently understood and poorly represented in empirical research, with most of the literature focusing on a psychiatric or psychological perspective. This dissertation represents an attempt to understand hoarding among elderly women within a broader framework, particularly the way in which hoarding is functional. The study is from the perspective of adult protective services (APS) workers because they, more than any other profession, have the unique experience of observing hoarding within the home. The general viewpoint of this dissertation is that hoarding is not an aberration so much as an overzealous attachment to possessions. Definition of Hoarding The definition of hoarding as "the acquisition of, and failure to discard, large numbers of possessions that have little use or value" (Frost, Steketee & Green, 2003, p. 323) is typically utilized in journal literature. The definition focuses on a cognitivebehavioral explanation to hoarding--relentless acquiring and reluctance to dispose--while other definitions focus on the resulting impairment in terms of functionality of the house or focus on the large quantity and uselessness of objects. For example, the definition utilized by Steketee, Frost, and Kim (2001) illustrates how hoarding impairs the hoarder's ability to use and navigate through the home:
