Includes bibliographical references (leaves 45-47). The aim of this study is to determine whether the Schwartz universal value types are the same for South African students compared to other international studies. A total of 136 students completed the Schwartz Values Survey across three academic study years. The survey reports respondent values and the extent of their religiosity on a Likert-scale. The measure for internal consistency reliability for eight of the ten motivational value types is good, with poor reliability scores for Stimulation and Security. No statistically significant difference presents across the student academic years. The motivational value type Tradition is consistent with a high degree of religiosity. Hedonism is consistent with a low degree of religiosity. 2014-07-31T12:31:20Z 2014-07-31T12:31:20Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5824 eng application/pdf Organisational Psychology Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
