'A Theory of ethnical Value Orientations: Explication and Applications. Shalom H. Schwartz, social psychologist and author of a scheme of pagan treasure orientations has done question on universal value and how they exist in a wide variety of contexts. Most of his work turn to broad questions about values, such as: how be individuals’ priorities affected by social experiences, how do individuals’ priorities bias their behavior and choices, and, how do value priorities influence ideologies, attitudes, and actions in political, religious, environmental, and other domains.Through his studies, Schwartz concluded that ten types of universal values exist: achievement, benevolence, conformity, hedonism, power, security, self-direction, stimulation, tradition, and universalism. Schwartz also tested the possibility of  spiritualism as an eleventh universal value, but demonstrate that it did not exist in all cultures. Schwartzs value theory and instru ments are part of the biannual European Social Survey.His work presents a theory of cardinal-spot ethnic value orientations that form three heathenish value dimensions. applies it to understanding relations of culture to meaningful societal phenomena. In this theory we can husking Shwartz’s conception of culture, a conception of the prescriptive value system that underlies social practices and institutions. He derived seven value orientations that are useful for describing and comparing societies. His research is based on analyses of data across 75 countries.Using the cultural orientations, Shwartz generated a worldwide empirical occasion of 75 national cultures that identifies 7 transnational cultural groupings: West European, English-speaking, Latin American, East European, South Asian, Confucian influenced, and African and Middle Eastern. There are short discussed cultural characteristics of these groupings. Also I’ve found  the examples of socioeconom ic, political, and demographic factors that give rise to national differences on the cultural value dimensions, factors that are influenced by culture.\r\n'
