About These Figures
Every figure on this page is a share of completed assessments on Personalvalu.es, read from the same aggregates as the Global Values Research. The appearance rate is how often inner harmony is among a participant's ten most important values. It is not a score, and a difference between groups describes the participants in them without explaining it.
How the aggregates are built, and why some countries and groups are left out, is set out in the methodology. Month-by-month figures for every value are in the monthly archive.
