WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Value Attitude Toward Children Scale Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure is used to evaluate adults’ value-based attitudes toward children in applied settings. The Value Attitude Toward Children Scale is intended to capture the extent to which children are regarded as autonomous individuals and as an intrinsic, terminal value rather than primarily in relation to an adult’s social role.
The instrument includes 10 items and typically requires about 2 minutes to complete. It may be used as a rapid screening tool or as an adjunct to broader assessment when working with parents, educators, or other caregivers. The Value Attitude Toward Children Scale is attributed to Clyde Kluckhohn and Milton Rokeach.
