Test de valores: un instrumento para la evaluación

Abstract

The interest that values currently arouse finds an answer in the present Spanish education system. If education has to transmit values to the person it is necessary to know their starting point and to know to what level they reach the proposed objectives. To make an initial evaluation and compare it on successive occasions with previous situations would be a useful indicator as much as to establish the objectives of education with respect to values as to evaluate the progress of the pupils in the acquisition of the proposed values. It is necessary, then, to have the means to discover the values which a person thinks are important. In the present study we offer the professionals in education an instrument with which to evaluate the values produced in agreement with a model of integral education.
