The aim of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the term value as a common research topic and consequently point out how it should be reflected in a research design. There is an outline of such a design in the third part of the paper. The authors do not follow the common understanding of values as central beliefs. Instead, following Brožík's ideas, they consider them the outcome of the evaluation of relationships to different concrete or abstract objects around us. The content of this paper focuses on the values of a person, rather than a general understanding of the term. It offers the notion of values as the result of our everyday experience and therefore, it does not discuss the a priori existence of values. It rather focusses on how one's values (less and more central) are formed.
