Abstract

We designed Value Awareness Measurement (VAM) to know how much design students know about human values and how they estimate their awareness of this concept. VAM is a questionnaire with four scales: Scale-1: participants’ self-report about being aware of human values, Scale-2: participants’ general knowledge about human values, Scale-3: participants’ value awareness, and Scale-4: participants’ opinions about the importance of human value awareness in everyday life. To test VAM, we used this questionnaire before and after an introductory workshop about human values with HuValue tool. The results showed a significant effect of the workshop on three out of four scales, which means our questionnaire can measure human value awareness.
