Life values

This is the PVQ-RR: 57 short statements about what matters to you. Rate how much each one is like you. The result is read as a ranking, not a score — your answers are centred within you, so absolute numbers are never compared to other people. Humility and the power/achievement distinction are flagged where the evidence is weaker. Set aside about 15 minutes; you can stop and resume later.
