1 INTRODUCTION Values are frequently conceptualized in the psychological literature as abstract ideals that people cherish as important guiding principles in their lives (Rokeach, 1973; Schwartz, 1992). However, while research shows that the amount of importance people attribute to values is linked to, for example, attitudes (Hanel et al., 2021) or behavior (Sagiv & Roccas, 2021), value importance is only weakly and inconsistently associated with well-being (Boer, 2017; Nezlek, 2022).
