SummaryThe Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ) is a 30-item self-report instrument developed by Graham, Haidt and colleagues (2011) to measure the degree to which people rely on five intuitive moral foundations: Care/harm, Fairness/cheating, Loyalty/betrayal, Authority/subversion, and Sanctity/degradation. It is the standard operationalization of Moral Foundations Theory, which argues that political and cultural moral disagreements arise from differing weights placed on these foundations.The Schwartz Value Survey (SVS) operationalizes Schwartz's (1992) theory of basic human values, which identifies ten (later refined to nineteen) motivationally distinct values organized in a circular structure along two axes: openness to change versus conservation, and self-enhancement versus self-transcendence. It is the most widely used cross-cultural values instrument and underlies much research on the value basis of political ideology.
