Homework: Rokeach Values Survey

Developed by Milton Rokeach in 1973, the purpose of the Rokeach Values Survey is to classify human values and help individuals better understand what is important to them. Values themselves are not seen, instead one can see the behaviors associated with what people value.

There are two types of values in this survey:

Question A. Terminal Values: Terminal values represent desired end states. Something a person would like to achieve in their own lifetime. Examples would be true friendship, mature love, national security, world peace, salvation, a comfortable life. Terminal values are achievable items.

Question B. Instrumental Values: Instrumental values represent "modes of behavior."In other words, they are means of achieving your terminal values. (Think of these values as instruments by which you accomplish your terminal values). Examples include ambition, love, self-control, politeness, honesty, independence. The focus of instrumental values is on acting in a manner to achieve the value.

Complete a Rokeach Values Survey for yourself by ranking the RokeachValues listed in the table below in order of importance. Focus on only one set of values at a time.

Question A. Ranking Terminal Values: Begin by focusing only on the list of terminal values. Select the value that is most important to you. As you go through the list of terminal values, rank each value from most to least importance for you with 1 being most important and 18 being least important to you. Work through the list of terminal values until all terminal values are assigned a ranking.

Question B. Ranking Instrumental Values: When you have finished ranking your terminal values, proceed to the list of instrumental values, and rank each in the same way as your terminal values with a ranking of 1 for the most important instrumental value, and 18 for the least important instrumental value.
