Human Values, Purpose & Meaning 2025 (Dataset)
A de-identified open dataset of 507 adults, capturing how people understand their core personal values, sense of meaning, life direction, fulfilment, behavioural alignment, and emotional wellbeing — and how these relate to digital environments and AI influence.
Measures include clarity of values, meaning and purpose indicators, fulfilment, alignment vs misalignment, self-trust, distraction from values, digital/AI influence on decisions, and emotional wellbeing.
