The World Values Surveys were designed to provide a comprehensive  
measurement of all major areas of human concern, from religion to  
politics to economic and social life and two dimensions dominate the  
picture: (1) Traditional/ Secular-rational and (2) Survival/Self- 
expression values. These two dimensions explain more than 70 percent  
of the cross-national variance in a factor analysis of ten indicators- 
and each of these dimensions is strongly correlated with scores of  
other important orientations.
