Description
Summary:This study designed and validated a novel instrument that is useful for analyzing values at different levels (moral, social, individual, spiritual, and multicultural). A questionnaire was designed and validated with 1,702 participants using structural equation modeling (SEM). This methodology allows for latent analysis, which is consistent with the use of a multivariate regression to relate response patterns to a set of existing factors that are not directly observed, thus obtaining four factors related to social, cultural, transcendental, and emotional values, where the values must be based on the holistic development of a human being, combining all the dimensions that make up an individual. This resulted in a valid and reliable instrument with psychometric characteristics that make it suitable for establishing values in multicultural populations.
