The document discusses various classifications and types of values. It summarizes Rokeach's value survey which separates values into two categories: terminal values, which are desirable end-states or goals; and instrumental values, which are preferable modes of behavior to achieve terminal values. It also outlines value classifications by Z.K Sajaranjiwallah based on biological, intrinsic and instrumental values, and by Eduard Spranger based on theoretical, economic, aesthetic, social, political and religious values. Finally, it lists different types of values such as aesthetic, material, personal, social, behavioral, spiritual, moral values as well as traditional Indian values and constitutional values.

are internalized through the process of conditioning,
learning or socialization and that become subjective
preferences, standards, and aspirations”.

TERMINAL VALUES
Terminal Values refer to desirable end-
states of existence. These are the goals that
a person would like to achieve during his
life time.These values vary among different
groups of people in different cultures.
eg : true friendship, equality, freedom etc.
INSTRUMENTAL VALUES
Instrumental Values refer to preferable
modes of behavior. These are preferable
modes of behavior, or means of
achieving the terminal values.
eg : love, honesty,politeness, intellect,
logic etc.
Social psychologist Milton Rokeach developed a value classification system, Rokeach
Value Survay(RVS). It consists of two set of values, 18 individual value items in each.
