Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the relationship between left-right self-identification and political beliefs mediated by values. A total of 1,038 people participated in the study. The study used the Political Beliefs Questionnaire and the Polish version of the S.Schwartz’s Portrait Value Questionnaire. Self-identification with right-wing views correlated positively with conservatiness and left-wing views correlated positively with self-transcendence, orientation to change and self-enhancement. Conservativeness mediates the relationship between self-identification and fundamentalism, lowering the negative correlation between these variables. The more the negative relationship between left-wing self-identification and conservativeness increases, the more the relationship between self-identification and religious fundamentalism decreases. The analysed values mediate the relationship between left-wing self-identification and political beliefs. The observations made confirm the need to take into account values when analysing political beliefs.
