WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
A Method for Studying Value Relationships Based on Proverbs Test

Proverb-Based Assessment of Value Attitudes Test

metaphorsmoralityvalues

This measure uses forced-choice judgments between paired, opposing proverbs to sample respondents’ value-related attitudes. The Proverb-Based Assessment of Value Attitudes is intended to elicit preferences that may reflect guiding beliefs about self, other people, and broader life orientations. It is attributed to Milton Rokeach.

The instrument consists of 24 items and typically requires about 5 minutes to complete. Responses are reviewed for patterns of endorsement across proverb pairs, and results from the Proverb-Based Assessment of Value Attitudes are interpreted as indicators of relative value emphases rather than as a comprehensive evaluation of personality or clinical status.
