title: Instrumentality--terminality values in relation to age.
abstract: Terminal and instrumental value preference was investigated by asking young adults and older adults to respond to a modified version of the Rokeach Value Survey. Terminal and instrumental values were almost identical among the age and sex groups. Thus, the present data provide no evidence to support the hypothesis that older adults have a higher priority for terminal values than do young adults.
