Both 3 and 4
No ceremonialism or etiquette is involved in exploiting food resources or using chattels recognized as belonging to others
No intracommunity use of privately owned food resources and/or chattels permitted; therefore no ceremonialism
No or few privately owned food resources and/or chattels
Some ceremonialism or etiquette is involved in gaining access to the food resources or the use of chattels recognized as belonging to others; e.g., invitations are extended, use is requested, affines are expected to use the resources and/or chattels, and so forth

Both 2 and 3 obtain, neither clearly predominates
Both 3 and 4 obtain, none clearly predominates
Food and/or chattels are predominantly distributed on a balanced or equal basis, i.e., donors and recipients reverse roles on a fairly equal basis and contribute and receive food and/or chattels more or less equally
Food and/or chattels are predominantly distributed on a generalized basis, i.e., people in the local group possess or have access to much more food and/or many more chattels than people in another local group. A pattern obtains where the possessors of plenty are generalized donors and those who possess less are generalized recipients. The recipients do not reciprocate to the donors in amount
Food and/or chattels are predominantly distributed on a negative basis, i.e., people in the local group possess or have access to much more food and/or many more chattels than people in other local groups. A pattern obtains where the possessors of plenty provide for the needy as the exigencies dictate; but the needy recipients, in turn, pay back as negative donors a greater quantity of food and/or chattels to the original donor than they received (The return payment may be deferred for a season or more
Negative reciprocity (as in #4) in which the local group is the negative recipient of food and/or chattels from a group that possesses plenty (or from several groups), rather than being the possessors and donors of plenty themselves
There is no reciprocity between or among extralocal groups
