Interviewers' perceptions of impression management in employment interviews (2014, methodology): “We consider these results to be sufficient to conduct our analyses, since lack of invariance mainly limits the interpretations for mean comparisons (which we do not use), but not for correlation and regression analyses (which we use) (Davidov et al., 2008).”
Values at Work: The Impact of Personal Values in Organisations (2019, background): “…concern for others: Expressing concern and care for those with whom one has frequent contact (benevolence) or displaying acceptance, tolerance, and concern for nature, and for all people regardless of group FIGure 2. the content and structure of human values (Davidov et al., 2008, p. 425).”
MEASUREMENT INVARIANCE OF A REFINED VALUES SCALE 1 Running Head : MEASUREMENT INVARIANCE OF A REFINED VALUES SCALE The Cross-National Invariance Properties of a New Scale to Measure 19 Basic Human Values . A Test across Eight Countries (2014, methodology): “This made it possible to identify all 19 values without having to unify any values (ct., Davidov et al., 2008).”
Personal values and prosocial behaviour in strategic interactions: Distinguishing value‐expressive from value‐ambivalent behaviours (2013, methodology): “Furthermore, the similarity of the empirical structure of the instrument with the theoretical structure shown in Figure 1 has been tested and confirmed (e.g. Bilsky, Janik, & Schwartz, 2011; Davidov et al., 2008).”
Testing for Approximate Measurement Invariance of Human Values in the European Social Survey (2018, methodology): “Several studies tested the measurement invariance properties of the PVQ-21 scale using ESS data (Davidov 2008, 2010; Davidov, Schmidt, and Schwartz 2008).”
Refining the theory of basic individual values. (2012, background): “This is a substantial improvement over findings in earlier research (e.g., Davidov et al., 2008).”
How the interplay between consumer motivations and values influences organic food identity and behavior (2018, positive): “The semi-annual European Social Survey’s 21-item value instrument was used for measuring the four Schwartz values ( conservation , openness to change , self-enhancement , and self-transcendence ) (Davidov et al., 2008).”
The Comparability of Measurements of Attitudes toward Immigration in the European Social Survey Exact versus Approximate Measurement Equivalence (2015, positive): “…such variations might distort responses to the extent that scalar equivalence is not supported, particularly in cross-national data but also within countries, especially when there are language or cultural differences among groups (see, for example, Davidov et al. 2008; Meuleman and Billiet 2012).”
Value Orientations From the World Values Survey (2016, background): “…(Knutsen, 2010; Maseland & van Hoorn, 2011).36 Our views on this question closely track a consensus in the measurement literature as expressed by Davidov, Schmidt, and Schwartz (2008), who noted that “one should not compare the mean importance of . . . values across . . . countries” if value…”
Parenting Style, Child Emotion Regulation and Behavioral Problems: The Moderating Role of Cultural Values in Australia and Indonesia (2020, background): “Third, the current study did not test measurement invariance, an assessment of whether the measurement instruments accessed the same constructs across different countries (Davidov et al., 2008).”
Happy to Help? Exploring the Factors Associated with Variations in Rates of Volunteering Across Europe (2010, methodology): “The Schwartz human values have been found to have equivalent meaning across countries in the ESS (Davidov et al. 2008) and are therefore suitable for our analysis.”
Can we Rate Public Support for Democracy in a Comparable Way? Cross-National Equivalence of Democratic Attitudes in the World Value Survey (2011, methodology): “This framework allows researchers to test empirically for measurement invariance across groups when the factor is compared across groups using multiple group confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) (for further details, see, e.g., Bollen 1989; for an application, see, e.g., Davidov et al. 2008).”
A comparison of the invariance properties of the PVQ-40 and the PVQ-21 to measure human values across German and Polish Samples (2012, methodology): “A shortened version (21 items) of Schwartz’s measurement instrument has been included in the semiannual European Social Survey (ESS) since 2002.”
