The Personal Values Questionnaire is based on the theory of personal values developed by the social psychologist Shalom Schwartz and colleagues and which has been empirically tested in more than 80 countries.
At the end of the questionnaire you will receive an automatically generated personal values assessment. This can help you understand: which personal values are most important to you, and how your values differ from an average EU citizen.
This self-assessment tool is part of an initiative by the European Commission's Joint Research Centre to help policymakers in the European Institutions and EU Member States deliver better policies by knowing their own values priorities and potential blind spots.
No policymaker? You can of course take the self-test just the same.
