Abstract
To explore the relationship between value preference of college students and emotional adjustment, 209 students were given a test measuring 9 values, 5 relating to either dependency or individualism. Self-interpretation, Self-actualization, Achievement were the individualistic values, Relationship and Support were the dependent values. Based on the Kleinmuntz scale and the Goldberg index, Ss were divided into four adjustment levels. Using a 2 × 4 analysis of variance for each of the 9 values, and a trend analysis for those with significant main effects, 3 values relating to dependency or individualism differed significantly among the adjustment groups, Self-interpretation, Relationship, and Achievement. There was a significant linear trend for each value, indicating an increase in adjustment level as preference increased for the two individualistic values and a decrease in level as preference increased for the dependent value. A comparison of adjustment groups' most frequently preferred value yielded results consistent with these findings. The results suggest that there is a relationship between value deviance and adjustment.
