Fig. 1: Change in global value variation (SD of normalized country means) for each of the 40 WVS items in our analysis.
Each bar represents a correlation coefficient between timepoint and value variation for a given value (value labels are listed on the y-axis). Positive bars indicate that value variation is rising, and that values are diverging. Negative bars indicate that value variation is falling, and values are converging. The fill color indicates the absolute value of the correlation of each item with Welzel’s index of emancipative values8; brighter bars correlate either highly positively or negatively on this index.
