Abstract: One recurring theme in personality psychology is the argument on the congruence between values and behaviors. The following modes consist in relevant researches: values serve as direct predictors of behaviors; various mediator and moderator influence the relationship between values and behaviors, such as life styles, attitude or personality. The goal hierarchy model suggests that specific objectives connect values to behaviors; while the construal level theory puts forward that the effect of values on behaviors depends on psychological distance; the self-worth orientation theory believes that self-worth systems direct behaviors as well; from the perspective of the neo-socioanalytic model, value is one of the personality domains, it influences behaviors with other domains. The further researches would focus on the application of value lexicon and the relationship between value conflicting and behavior decision, some investigations on the Chinese cultural background and the establishing of specific model.
