# World Values Survey

**Profile:** A canonical global, longitudinal research project exploring people's values and beliefs across many countries. Canonical reference: the World Values Survey official site.

**Role in source:** Suggested as a **cultural training dataset** to help AI agents better reflect diverse global values and **mitigate WEIRD bias** (see [[concept-weird-bias-in-ai]] and [[action-enrich-training-data]]). It is the cultural counterpart to the [[entity-big-five-framework|Big Five Framework]] in the second imperative of the [[framework-seven-imperatives]].
