'Reification' may refer to:
★ Reification (computer science), making a data model for a previously abstract concept.
★ Reification (fallacy), fallacy of treating an abstraction as if it were a real thing.
★ Reification in Gestalt psychology, where an object is perceived as having more spatial information than is actually present in the original stimulus.
★ Reification (knowledge representation), used to represent facts that must then be manipulated in some way.
★ Reification (linguistics) in natural language processing, where a natural language statement is transformed so actions and events in it become quantifiable variables.
★ Reification (Marxism) (German: ''Verdinglichung''), the consideration of an abstraction or an object as if it had living existence and abilities; at the same time it implies the ''thingification'' of social relations.
