Abstract	How parents and adolescents perceive each other's life values is a key to understanding successful value transmission. In the value socializations literature, it has been proposed that parents' values become internalized when children correctly perceive their parents' values and decide to adopt them as their own. In the current study, we propose that interpersonal value perception of broader life values is characterized by a perceptual bias--projection--which propels adolescents to perceive their parents' values to be similar to their own, and propels parents to perceive their adolescents' values to be similar to theirs. This cross-sectional study examined 518 dyads of adolescents and their parents. Adolescents rated how important different humanistic, environmental, and achievement values were to them, and how important these values were to their parents. Parents similarly rated how important these values were to them and to their adolescents. Using structural equation modeling, an interpersonal value perception model was constructed that estimated how much parents and adolescents projected their own values when perceiving each other's values. The results supported the idea that both parents and adolescents substantially project their own values when perceiving the others' values, and that they perceive the others' values with low accuracy. We discuss our findings in light of value socialization in both research and practice. (As Provided).
