چکیده [English]

Values are guide for attitudes in life and are the main motivators of behavior. The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Ethical Values questionnaire. In this study, 300 Iranian students participated through an online call. The instruments were the Persian version of the Ethical Values Assessment questionnaire (Padilla & Jensen., 2016), Flourishing scale (Diner, 2010) and Professional Ethics (Cadozier, 2002). The results of face, content and structure validity analysis showed the optimal validity of the scale. Findings from factor analysis confirmed the 3D factors of the scale. The model fit indices were in good condition. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the whole scale was 0.85 and for the dimensions of autonomy, Community and divinity were 0.77, 0.65 and 0.91, respectively. The convergence of the ethical values score with the professional ethics and flourishing score was confirmed. Based on the findings, the psychometric properties of the Ethical Values Scale in Iranian society are appropriate and its use in psychometric evaluations and research is recommended.
