 Values
• Values are a person's individual
expectations for their own future in
relation to their family, job, friends,
group, community, and country as a
whole.
• Traditionally, it was practiced and
eventually it became a part of our culture.
 Values
• Children learn, grow, and function in the
world based on the values that their
families teach them. These beliefs
influence how a youngster develops as
an adult in society and how they spend
their lives.
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK FOR
VALUES DEVELOPMENT
This chapter offers a framework for
developing values using a variety of
theories and viewpoints.
The ideas offered comprise:
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK FOR
VALUES DEVELOPMENT
1. Human values as ideals, which
determine our priorities and direct our
behaviors.
2. Human ideals as they reflect different
levels of needs.
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK FOR
VALUES DEVELOPMENT
3. Human pursuit for the ultimate and highest
values as they relate to the spiritual nature
of man.
4. Human desire much of which is
unconscious.
5. Human ideals as pursued individually and
collectively.
HUMAN VALUES, PRIORITIES AND
BEHAVIORS
• Our values can be found in the priorities that
direct our choices and deeds.
• According to Brian Hall, "values are the beliefs
that give meaning to our lives and are
represented via the priorities we pick and the
actions we take regularly and consistently."
 HUMAN IDEALS REFLECT
DIFFERENT LEVELS OF NEEDS
• The values that give our lives meaning mirror
the many degrees of requirements. Maslow
(1993) asserts that there are at least five sets of
goals connected to a person's physiological,
safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-
actualization requirements.
MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

Physiologic needs.
• The body's basic demands for
food, water, rest, sleep, and other
biologic necessities to maintain
health and fitness.
 MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

Safety needs
 A general concern for global security
against environmental threats,
violence, and dictatorship.
 Being certain of having sufficient
resources.
 MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

Love and belongingness needs.

 Having a healthy, caring, and
loving relationship with one's
significant ones.
 MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

Esteem needs
 Self-respect that is firmly based on ability,
success, and other people's regard.
 When one's demands for self-esteem are met,
they experience a sense of value, strength, and
aptitude as well as a confirmation of their
usefulness and importance in the world.
 MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS

Self-actualization
 Becoming more what one is, and what
one is potentially capable of becoming.
 The person is basically satisfied in all
his her needs, and functions to the
fullest and healthiest creativeness.
LEVELS OF VALUES
We may then classify values in two
levels:
 Foundation Values, and
 The Ultimate Values.
 LEVELS OF VALUES

Foundation Values
• Relate to the satisfaction of the basic or
fundamental for the life to be sustained and to
achieve a relative state of health.
• The foundation needs which are classified as
physiologic, safety, love and belongingness,
esteem must be met to attain health.
 LEVELS OF VALUES

Foundation Values
• Health is multidimensional; involves the
biological, physiological, social and
spiritual realms and it is essential to self-
actualization.
 LEVELS OF VALUES

Ultimate Values
• Maslow defined self-actualizing 
people as those who work at what they were m
eant to do, something they love to do, so that t
hework- joy duality in them is erased.
