The World Value Survey allows you to toggle across three different dimensions of values in society: Materialism/Postmaterialism (MATPOSTR), Survival/Self-Expression (SURSE) or Traditionalism/Secular-Rationalism (TRADSRAT). Use the scroll-down menu to select which dimension of values you would like to display. You can then choose to display the World Value Survey results as a product of different Run-Result-Files found to the right of the variable scroll-down list.
You can advance the value you have chosen through time by clicking on the advance. In order to move backwards through time, click on Regress. In order to change between countries/regions and groupings, simply click on country/region or grouping. Other options allow you to Save and Print your graph.
