520 |a This study sought to discover whether there is a distinctive value system for Unitarian Universalists which distinguishes them from other religious groups. The Rokeach Values Survey was used to determine the values held by a representative sample of Unitarian Universalists. The study found that such factors as frequency of church attendance, perceived importance of religion, and economic class have almost no influence on their value patterns. Their value system differs from that of Christians, Jews, and persons claiming no religious affiliation. Finally, the study identified a distinctive Unitarian Universalist paradigm of values marked by a high ranking of the terminal values (self-respect, wisdom, inner-harmony, mature love, a world of beauty, and an exciting life) and the instrumental values (loving, independent, intellectual, imaginative, and logical) which, taken together, show an orientation towards competence rather than morality and stress personal realization, individual self-fulfillment, and self-actualization.
