Analysis

The Values Fulfillment Scale is used to assess the extent to which individuals feel that their personal values are fulfilled within the context of their work environment or their broader life. This scale typically examines the alignment of personal values with daily habits, satisfaction derived from the fulfillment of values, and the impact on well-being.

Purpose

The purpose of the scale is to provide a measurement of the degree to which individuals feel their values are present and fulfilled in their lives. This tool helps identify areas where values may not be met and supports the development of strategies to better align activities and choices with personal values.

Calibration

Calibration is usually carried out through questions rated on a Likert scale, such as from “1 = Strongly disagree” to “5 = Strongly agree.” The analysis of the results helps to understand the degree to which personal values are being fulfilled and highlights areas that may require attention or changes in order to improve satisfaction and well-being.
