Mapping longitudinal trajectories of personal values in elementary school: Unveiling roles of the classroom
Value transmission is a key societal responsibility, and value education has gained increasing global attention. Although classrooms represent important developmental environments for children's values, comparatively little is known about how different social actors within classrooms contribute to value development. This longitudinal study examined how classmates, teachers, and classroom relationships contribute to children's value development ov…
Children’s personal values and their behavior in the classroom in the early elementary school years: Mapping longitudinal trajectories
This study pioneers the examination of developmental trajectories of children’s personal values and their behavior in the classroom at the start of elementary school, exploring these dynamics of change in younger children. Additionally, we consider the classroom context, being an important but often overlooked setting for children’s value development. In a sample of 1,184 Swiss children ( Mean age at T1: 6.82 years) who self-reported their values…
How Far Into the Future Can Values Predict Behavior? It Depends on Value Importance
When people say a value is important to them, does it have consequences years later? Recent research found that among people who hold a value to be highly important, there tend to be strong relations between that value and behavior. But does this effect persist over time? The current research found that highly important values correlate with behavior, 1 and 2 years later, significantly more strongly than less important values, using a sample of A…
A Fundamental Difference in the Nature of Personal Values and Personality Traits Revealed Through Different Patterns of Stability Across Their Distributions
OBJECTIVE: Personal values and personality traits are both important aspects of personality, but much is still unknown about the fundamental differences between the constructs, including how their patterns of temporal stability compare. This paper investigated patterns of intra-individual stability in both values and traits. METHOD: Quantile correlations were estimated between each of the 20 refined personal values and the same values 2 years lat…
Biculturals’ personal value change in everyday intercultural movements
Wishful perceiving: A value-based bias for perception of close others
Why do people not perceive their close others accurately, although they have ample information about them? We propose that one reason for such errors may be bias based on personal values. Personal values may serve as schemas defining what people see as positive, and thus affect perceptions of others' behavior, values, and traits. We propose that, in close relationships, people see others as sharing their own values. Six studies ( N = 2,225; four …
The relationship between young children’s personal values and their teacher-rated behaviors in the classroom
There has been little research on the relationships between children’s personal values and the behaviors that express such values in the school context. In the present study, we examined for the first time with children at this young age, the relations between values and their value-related behaviors, i.e., supportive, disciplined, learning-oriented, and achievement-oriented, in the primary school context. The sample consisted of 952 primary scho…
Effects of Nature Values and Regulatory Fit of Message Framing on Message Evaluation and Actual Pro-Environmental Donations
Messages are often tailored to individual differences, as fit is believed to influence behavior. We examine the effects of regulatory fit (i.e., matching promotion/prevention message framing to people’s promotion/prevention orientation) and the priority that individuals attribute to nature values, on the evaluation of climate change messages and donations to pro-environmental charities. We measured participants’ ( n = 570) regulatory focus on ens…
Changes in Personal Values in Pandemic Times
The COVID-19 pandemic has had immense impact on people’s lives, potentially leading individuals to reevaluate what they prioritize in life (i.e., their values). We report longitudinal data from Australians 3 years prior to the pandemic, at pandemic onset (April 2020, N = 2,321), and in November–December 2020 ( n = 1,442). While all higher order values were stable prior to the pandemic, conservation values, emphasizing order and stability, became …

The role of psychologists in international migration research: Complementing other expertise and an interdisciplinary way forward
This research note addresses the current and potential future role of psychologists in the study of international migration. We review ways in which psychologists have contributed to the study of migration, as well as ways in which psychological scholarship could be integrated with work from other social science fields. Broadly, we discuss four major contributions that psychology brings to the study of international migration-studying migrants' i…
Fitting motivational content and process: A systematic investigation of fit between value framing and self‐regulation
OBJECTIVE: Values are often phrased as ideals that people seek to approach, but they can also be conceptualized as counter-ideals that people seek to avoid. We aimed to test whether individuals endorse more strongly values that are framed in line with their predominant self-regulatory motivation, using individual difference scales in promotion/prevention (Higgins, 1997) and in behavioral approach/inhibition (Carver & White, 1994). To address this…
Does the Value Circle Exist Within Persons or Only Across Persons
This study tests whether the Schwartz (1992) value circle exists within individuals, not only across individuals, thereby providing evidence for the within‐person rationale underlying the value circle. We analyze responses from five samples (a representative sample in Britain, a general population sample in the United States, and university students in Britain and Iran) varying in value measures of the Schwartz value theory (SVS, PVQ40, PVQ21). A…
Parent-child value similarity in families with young children: The predictive power of prosocial educational goals
Value transmission from one generation to the next is a key issue in every society, but it is not clear which parents are the most successful in transmitting their values to their children. We propose parents' prosocial educational goals as key predictors of parent-child value similarity. Accordingly, we hypothesized that the more parents wanted their children to endorse values of self-transcendence (helping, supporting, and caring for others) an…
Should ratings of the importance of personal values be centered
Personality Traits and Personal Values: A Meta-Analysis
Personality traits and personal values are important psychological characteristics, serving as important predictors of many outcomes. Yet, they are frequently studied separately, leaving the field with a limited understanding of their relationships. We review existing perspectives regarding the nature of the relationships between traits and values and provide a conceptual underpinning for understanding the strength of these relationships. Using 6…
The Roles of Values, Behavior, and Value‐Behavior Fit in the Relation of Agency and Communion to Well‐Being
Four studies examined whether agency and communion values, behaviors, or an interaction between values and behaviors (value‐behavior fit) would predict well‐being. In addition, Study 2 examined whether agency and communion goals, behaviors, or goal‐behavior fit would predict well‐being. In all four studies, participants completed online questionnaires containing measures of agency and communion values, behaviors, and well‐being. In Studies 1 and …
Reciprocal Relations across Time between Basic Values and Value‐expressive Behaviors: A Longitudinal Study among Children
The current study examines the reciprocal relations between children's values and value‐expressive behavior over a sixth‐month period. Three hundred and ten sixth‐grade students in Italy completed value and value‐expressive behavior questionnaires three times in three‐month intervals during the scholastic year. We assessed Schwartz's (1992) higher‐order values of conservation, openness to change, self‐enhancement, and self‐transcendence, as well …

Value stability and change during self-chosen life transitions: Self-selection versus socialization effects
Three longitudinal studies examine a fundamental question regarding adjustment of personal values to self-chosen life transitions: Do values fit the new life setting already at its onset, implying value-based self-selection? Or do values change to better fit the appropriate and desirable values in the setting, implying value socialization? As people are likely to choose a life transition partly based on their values, their values may fit the new …
Cultural Values Predict Coping Using Culture as an Individual Difference Variable in Multicultural Samples
Three studies establish the relations between cultural values and coping using multicultural samples of international students. Study 1 established the cross-cultural measurement invariance of subscales of the Cope inventory Carver, Scheier, & Weintraub, 1989) used in the article. The cultural value dimensions of embeddedness versus autonomy and hierarchy versus egalitarianism predicted how international students from 28 (Study 2) and 38 (Study 3…
The Dual Route to Value Change: Individual Processes and Cultural Moderators
Understanding value stability and change is essential for understanding values of both individuals and cultures.Yet theoretical thinking and empirical evidence on this topic have been scarce. In this article, the authors suggest a model outlining processes of individual value change. This model proposes that value change can occur through automatic and effortful routes. They identify five facilitators of value change (priming, adaptation, identif…
The structure of intraindividual value change
Values are assumed to be relatively stable during adulthood. Yet, little research has examined value stability and change, and there are no studies on the structure of value change. On the basis of S. H. Schwartz's (1992) value theory, the authors propose that the structure of intraindividual value change mirrors the circumplexlike structure of values so that conflicting values change in opposite directions and compatible values change in the sam…
Interactive Effects of Traits on Adjustment to a Life Transition
A longitudinal design was used to test theoretically derived interactive effects of traits on adjustment to relocation 1, 8, and 15 months after relocation of elderly women. Openness interacted with Neuroticism and with Extraversion in affecting changes in distress after relocation by amplifying the basic emotional tendencies of Neuroticism and Extraversion. These were delayed effects, occurring only 15 months after relocation. Openness also inte…
Values and Behavior: Strength and Structure of Relations
Three studies address unresolved issues in value-behavior relations. Does the full range of different values relate to common, recurrent behaviors? Which values relate more strongly to behavior than others? Do relations among different values and behaviors exhibit a meaningful overall structure? If so, how to explain this? We find that stimulation and tradition values relate strongly to the behaviors that express them; hedonism, power, universali…
Value Hierarchies Across Cultures: Taking a Similarities Perspective
Beyond the striking differences in the value priorities of groups is a surprisingly widespread consensus regarding the hierarchical order of values. Average value hierarchies of representative and near representative samples from 13 nations exhibit a similar pattern that replicates with school teachers in 56 nations and college students in 54 nations. Benevolence, self-direction, and universalism values are consistently most important; power, tra…
Influences of Adaptation to Communist Rule on Value Priorities in Eastern Europe
The basic value priorities prevalent in Eastern Europe are studied in a cross‐national comparison. Analyses of the implications of adaptation to life circumstances under communist regimes lead to the hypotheses that East European samples are likely to attribute especially high importance to conservatism and hierarchy values and low importance to egalitarianism, intellectual and affective autonomy, and mastery values. The same hypotheses apply to …

Relations among Sociopolitical Values in Eastern Europe: Effects of the Communist Experience
Studies of values around the world have revealed that a world at peace, social justice, and equality (universalism values) are ordinarily opposed motivationally to social order and national security (security values). We first establish that these sociopolitical values exhibit an unusual pattern of compatibility in East European samples from eight countries (N = 2770). This pattern suggests a shared meaning for the sociopolitical values similar t…
