Psychological Theories of Values Development                                                                       

Implication of Development

• in individuals, knowledge, or good character because it makes him a desirable person.

• example in Economics, money is value, because it is used to buy needed goods.

• example in Society, Education is a value, because it improves the socio-economic status of the people.

A value is "something intrinsically valuable or desirable." It is "something that has worth, utility or importance."

                                                                                                what are values, or what is a value?

    Values drive how we judge and help us make decisions and live in the real world with other people.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Your character is defined by values. And your core values are the result of your behavior. Aristotle said it best:                                                                                                      “Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting in a particular way.”
