Description
Summary:This study aimed to develop the Basic Values Survey, diagnosis version (BVS-D), gathering evidence of its construct validity (factorial and convergent validities and reliability). The functional theory of human values was taken into account, identifying its subfunctions and three values to represent each one. Participants were 210 school and university students in Joao Pessoa (PB), at a mean age of 18.3 years (SD = 2.94), mostly female (61.4%). They answered the BVS-D and demographic questions. In order to know factorial validity evidence of the instrument, confirmatory factor analyses were performed, and to assess the internal consistency, three indicators were used. Results supported the appropriateness of its version with 54 items, showing evidence of construct validity. In conclusion, this instrument showed appropriate psychometric parameters, which justifies its use in further studies and professional practice of psychologists. Keywords: Values, functions, measure, validity, diagnosis.
