“…The Schwartz value model has shown to be a solid guide to studying cross‐cultural and cross‐sectional similarities and differences in value priorities (e.g., Doise, Spini & Clémence, 1999; Silfver, 2007; Verkasalo, Lönnqvist, Lipsanen & Helkama, 2009). Schwartz (1994) sought to formulate a universally applicable classification system of value types, inclusive of their contents.…”

The aims of this study were, first, to re-address the issue of empathy among people with autism conditions; second, to explore the relationships between empathy and values among autistic populations and controls; and third, to explore the capacity for moral agency among those affected by autism. We compared responses of an Asperger group (N = 41) and a control group (N = 139) to measures of self-reported empathy (Davis's IRI) and value priorities (Schwartz's PVQ). Control group results were largely in line with previous studies, such that empathy subscales of perspective taking and empathic concern showed their strongest positive and negative relations to the Schwartz self-transcendence/self-enhancement dimensions. Results for the Asperger group showed that although on the one hand there were self-reported difficulties in perspective taking and the cognitive recognition of affect, and that on the other hand there were less connections between the empathy and value measures, there was nevertheless a comparable prioritization of moral values. Conclusions suggest that different people may acquire moral values through different mechanisms.

“…The Schwartz Value Survey has been used on many occasions also in Finland, a country close to Estonia both geographically and culturally. Therefore, we expected the Estonian adolescents to be similar to their Finnish peers with boys valuing Power and Achievement higher than girls, as it was reported by Verkasalo, Tuomivaara and Lindeman (1997) as well as by Silfver (2007) in her more recent cross-cultural comparison of Finnish and Peruvian adolescents.…”

The aim of the present study was to compare the Estonian senior high school students' value priorities in cohorts of 2000 and 2009. A questionnaire based on five value types from the Schwartz Value Survey (Schwartz and Bilsky 1987) -Self-direction, Achievement, Conformity, Power, and Tradition -was used for data collection. The study revealed a significant increase in the importance of Self-direction, Conformity and Tradition during the last decade, while Power and Achievement did not reach statistically significant difference across cohorts. At the same time, the hierarchical structure (the values' respective rankings) had remained the same -values related to Self-direction and Achievement were most important, and Tradition least important for the respondents. Values related to Achievement were found to be more important to boys in gender comparison. The results of the study are compared to the results obtained by earlier research on values and discussed in the context of societal change.

“…Emotional states such as guilt and shame are also strongly nuanced by culture and gender-differentiated socialization (Efthim et al, 2001;Silfver, 2007;Furukawa et al, 2012), so presumably the number of images obtained for these emotions was very low. In the case of sense of humor, it also seems to be influenced by cultural and generational differences (Olsson et al, 2001;Martin, 2007), gender (Wu et al, 2016), individual aspects through various cognitive processes, motivation and previous affective implications (Kuiper et al, 1995) and contextual factors (Booth−Butterfield and Booth−Butterfield, 1991).…”

PROJECTA: An Art-Based Tool in Trauma Treatment

2020

Artistic images, of a universal nature and validated by global culture, are carriers of an emotional potential that can be used for therapeutic purposes in cultural centers as well as in clinical spaces. Esthetic studies reveal the mobilizing power in their contemplation and the capacity to bring out personal stories with healing potential. The general objective of this paper is to design and validate the PROJECTA instrument, consisting of the therapeutic use of artistic images to approach trauma or difficult conditions in therapy, by means of the association between art images and emotions, feelings or states of mind related with a traumatic experience. A mixed approach of investigation with a concurrent triangulation design has been used for the integration of qualitative and quantitative results, where qualitative research outweighs quantitative, but both have been QUAL → quan sequentially developed. The study was carried out in two phases. The first was a systematic review of the literature. The second, divided into five steps, consisted of the validation of artworks and the associated emotions with the participation of students, experts in art therapy, psychologists and educators through focus groups, interviews and an online questionnaire. The analysis techniques were qualitative and quantitative. A set of 220 artistic images linked to emotional states were proposed by experts in education, psychology and art therapy, and validated through an online questionnaire. The respondents included 228 students and professionals and for 64.55% of these images a consensus of over 80% was obtained. These images and their associated emotions were again reviewed by a confirmatory focus group. Finally, 92 artistic works were linked to primary, secondary and tertiary emotions such as love, joy, victory, surprise, balance, sense of humor, anger, sadness, fear, and emptiness. In addition, there are mobilizing images that have not been related to any emotion because of the polysemy of their meanings. It concludes that PROJECTA is a visual art therapy tool that provides professionals with a resource that helps facilitate the identification, expression or demonstration of emotions or feelings related with trauma, and in challenging situations of vulnerability, psychological discomfort or post-traumatic stress.
