Using structural equation modeling (SEM), this study examines how adolescents’ rated importance (talk) and enactment (walk) of extrinsic values (wealth, beauty, and fame) and intrinsic values (affiliation, self-acceptance, and community) relate to their well-being and risk-taking. An online questionnaire was filled out by 647 adolescents (57.1% girls), aged between 14 and 17 years old (M_age = 15.5 years). Talk intrinsic values were positively associated with well-being, whereas talk extrinsic values were non-significantly related to it. As for the walk measures, we found an interaction between extrinsic and intrinsic values in the prediction of well-being. Extrinsic values enactment and well-being were positively related among adolescents reporting lower intrinsic values enactment, but not among adolescents who reported higher intrinsic values enactment. Finally, using either talk or walk measures, only extrinsic values were associated with higher risk-taking behaviors.

这项研究使用结构方程模型（SEM），研究了青少年的外在价值（财富，美丽和名望）与内在价值（归属，自我接纳和社区）的额定重要性（言语）和行为（行走）与内在价值（归属，自我接纳和社区）之间的关系他们的福祉和冒险精神。年龄在14至17岁之间（M_年龄）的647名青少年（57.1％的女孩）填写了在线问卷 = 15.5年）。谈话内在价值与幸福感呈正相关，而谈话外在价值与幸福感无显着关系。至于步行量度，我们在预测幸福感时发现了外在价值和内在价值之间的相互作用。外在价值观的制定和幸福与报告内在价值制定的青少年之间呈正相关，但与内在价值观的制定较高的青少年无关。最后，使用谈话或步行措施，只有外部价值与较高的冒险行为相关。
