Abstract
Rokeach's Value Survey Scale was administered to seventh and eighth grade students attending Catholic ( n — 61), Episcopalian ( n — 113), Friends ( n = 29), and Public ( n — 40) Schools. The four-group stepwise discriminant function carried out found that seven value rankings maximized the minimum Mahalanobis distance between group pairs: self-controlled, salvation, social recognition, national security, courageous, equality, and obedience. Two statistically significant functions were derived, Concern for Eternal Life and Recognition Reliability and Acceptance. The scale correctly classified 56% of the students in all groups with 70.5% of the Catholic, 46.9% of the Episcopalian, 47.5% of the public school and 75.9% of the Friends students correctly classified. The composite rankings were then compared with the 13-yr.-old age-group rankings reported by Rokeach.
