Abstract | "Purpose; Consistent with dual-process models of behaviour, Miles (2015) has shown that Schwartz' basic values can provide a valuable framework for empirically analysing the role of values and cultural contexts in driving human behaviour. We contribute to this line of research by distinguishing individual values from macro-level values, as well as from other micro and macro conditions, in order to test whether individual values shape women's work-family orientations in ways predicted by Hakim's preference theory.; Design/methodology/approach; We make use of the second round of the European Social Survey (ESS) collected in 2004, where a battery of questions on human values and work-family preferences were posed, and apply a multilevel approach to take into account national cultural and economic conditions across 25 European countries.; Findings; In line with the dual-process model and preference theory, we show that internalized values, particularly conservatism, shape work-family orientations much more than national social and cultural conditions; in addition, the effect of women's education on work-value orientations is stronger in countries with more conservative national cultures, suggesting that education may help women overcome social barriers in the choice of their work-career preference.; Originality/value; While values may shape work-family orientations differently in non-European or less affluent cultures, these findings reveal the importance of bringing values back into the analysis of individual preferences and behaviours towards the labour market."
