“…Through this investigation, it seems that Mezirow's (1994Mezirow's ( , 1998Mezirow's ( , 2007 theory of transformative learning is fully applicable in a didactic teaching approach to bioethics focused on concerns over moral dilemmas in terms of designing moral education strategies (Pantaléon, Chataigné, Bonardi, & Long, 2019).…”

“…Furthermore, Gary (n.d.) noted that values can motivate an individual to pursue positive social behaviours (e.g., solidarity, cooperation, and altruism) that favour the functioning of society (Rohan & Zanna, 2001). According to Pantaléon, Chataigné, Bonardi, & Long's (2019) results, age is a predictor of values priorities-more than the degree of self-centredness: the older the person is, the more he valorises collective values compared to individual values.…”

“…They have an abstract nature, which makes it possible to distinguish them from norms and attitudes (Sagiv et al 2017). For Schwartz (2012), values are defined as objective and transitional, desirable and of variable importance, which serve as a conductor guide in people's lives (Pantaléon et al 2019). The priorities of each individual start from their individual differences and are significantly related to real behaviors, i.e., pro-social, antisocial, environmental, political, consumer, and intellectual behaviors (Schwartz and Bardi 2002).…”

“…The priorities of each individual start from their individual differences and are significantly related to real behaviors, i.e., pro-social, antisocial, environmental, political, consumer, and intellectual behaviors (Schwartz and Bardi 2002). Pantaléon et al (2019) show that the more people are altruistic, the more importance they attach to self-transcendence and the less importance to self-promotion. On the other hand, the more self-directed they are, the more importance they attach to self-promotion and the less importance they attach to self-transcendence.…”

“…This association between values and religion can be established in two different ways: directly or indirectly. The association is designated as direct, when the transmission of religion occurs through socialization, namely within the family context, being considered as part of a more global transmission of values (Oman 2018). In turn, it is called an indirect association when individual differences, whether the characteristics are different from others as well as the specific personality, predispose individuals to be, remain, or become religious (Beckford 2019).…”

Values are guiding constructs of social action that connote some actions as desirable, undesirable, acceptable, and unacceptable, containing a normative moral/ethical component, and constituting a guide for actions, attitudes, and objectives for which the human being strives. The role of religion in the development of moral and ideal behaviors is a subject of concern and object of theoretical and empirical debate in various sciences. Analyzing sociodemographic and religious variables, the present work aimed to understand the contribution of religious variables to the explanation of Schwartz’s human values and to identify an explanatory model of second-order values, i.e., self-transcendence, conservation, self-promotion, and openness to change. This study was carried out with a representative sample of the Portuguese population, consisting of 1270 participants from the European Social Survey (ESS), Round 8. Benevolence (as human motivational value) and self-transcendence (as a second-order value) were found to be the most prevalent human values among respondents, with the female gender being the one with the greatest religious identity, the highest frequency of religious practices, and valuing self-transcendence and conservation the most. Older participants had a more frequent practice and a higher religious identity than younger ones, with age negatively correlating with conservation and positively with openness to change. It was concluded that age, religious identity, and an item of religious practice contribute to explain 13.9% of the conservation variance. It was also found that age and religious practice are the variables that significantly contribute to explain 12.2% of the variance of openness to change. Despite the associations between psychological variables (values) and religious ones, it can be concluded that religious variables contribute very moderately to explain human values. The results obtained in this study raised some important issues, namely, if these weakly related themes, i.e., religiosity and human values, are the expression of people belief without belonging.
