title: Differences in Schwartz's value survey between high and low scorers on the ECOSCALE.
abstract: The hypothesis that High ECOSCALE and Low ECOSCALE groups would have different value profiles was tested using 319 introductory psychology students (187 women and 132 men). The participants completed the ECOSCALE and Schwartz's Value Survey for partial course credit, after which the means of the two groups were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses of variance on Schwartz's Value Survey. Analysis indicated that the groups scoring high and low on the ECOSCALE had significantly different Value profiles, which supported the hypothesis. In addition, the High ECOSCALE group scored significantly lower on the Power scale and significantly higher on the Universalism and Benevolence scales.
