Abstract
A sample of 49 Iranian students studying in American colleges were divided into a less acculturated and a more acculturated group, based on a median split of their scores on Hannassab's Acculturation Scale. Using Schwartz's Value Survey, values of Iranian men and women ( ns = 19) were compared to values of 45 American men and women studying in the same U.S. colleges. Significant group differences in the ratings given to the value domains of power, benevolence, security, conformity, and tradition were observed. Also as expected, the mean acculturation scores of the Iranian students were significantly correlated with the number of years they had spent outside of Iran.
