ABSTRACT

Values are internalised cognitive frameworks that help people make decisions by instilling a feeling of fundamental moral standards, a sense of priorities, and a propensity to interpret the world and recognise patterns. Values can be investigated at the individual or group level, just like other cognitive structures. To put it another way, societies, cultures, and other social groups have values-based norms, priorities, and rules that specify what people should do in order to act in a proper, moral or valued way. Currently, the study of values is more specifically concerned with the situations in which values influence behaviour. In doing so, the study elaborates on the ramifications of creating value education in various domains.

Keywords: Contemporary Society, Values, Value and Society, Value and Education, Societal Domains.
