ABSTRACT
Values are constituents of philosophers’ objective world. Differences of opinion arise about the particular occasions of value, the particular perceptual and conceptual objects with which different kinds of value are associated. The common nature of value experience is sufficient to secure almost universal agreement on the general analysis of values, although differences arise everywhere as to the particular exemplification of them. Values may be said to possess certain intrinsic differences and also extrinsic differences. These extrinsic characters are the duration of the value experience; its permanence, or capacity for repeated enjoyment; its propinquity, the nearer being the more attractive; and its inclusiveness, or tendency to bring other values in its train. The recognition of the subjectivity of the relationship of values to other data serves as sufficient explanation of differences of opinion as do exist on the abstract characteristics of value.
