The Role of Value Orientation and Love to Money with Belief to the Justice

Belief to the justice has been associated with the ethical and humanity values for several reasons. Furthermore, human’s interests to the economical and material issues determine the human’s belief orientation about existence or non-existence of justice in the world. This research was administered with the purpose of exploratory analysis about relationship between value orientation and love to money with just and unjust world beliefs among males and females in Esfaham city. From statistical populations which were Esfaham inhabitants, 700 people (350 males and 350 females) were selected using multi-stage sampling. Research method was path analysis. The questionnaires of research were: belief to the just and unjust world with 20 items, love to money with 17 items (with four subscales including importance, success, motivator and richness) and value orientation with 20 items (with four subscales including universalism, achievement, power and benevolence). Data was analyzed by using path analysis. The results revealed that on male’s belief to the just world, success, universalism and benevolence and on female’s belief to the just world, success and achievement have direct significant path coefficients (P<0.01 or P<0.05). But about belief to the unjust world, results showed that among males, only universalism and among females only importance, success and motivator of money have reverse significant path coefficients (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Research evidences revealed that in males, value orientations and love to money have different relation with belief to the just and unjust world than females. The implications of paths, on the basis of path diagram have been discussed.
