Value Clarification Tests: Mama & Baba

The document presents two tests, "The Mama Test" and "The Baba Test", to help clarify one's values when making decisions. The Mama Test involves asking if one's mother would be proud of an action, while the Baba Test asks if one would be embarrassed if children saw the action. It concludes that if a person cannot determine their values using these tests, they have lost their humanity and conscience.

Judging Value System?

The Mama Test:


Whenever you need value clarification, ask yourself, "If my mama were to see me doing whatever I am doing would she be proud of me and say "Attaboy!" or would she hang her head in shame?" The clouds will clear rather quickly and you will get your answers easily.

Judging Value System?


The Baba Test:
Whenever you are doing, whatever you are doing, wherever and with whomever, at home or at work, alone or with someone, if values are in question, ask yourself, "If my children were to see me doing what I am doing right now, would I want them to see it, or would I be embarrassed?" Again the clouds will clear rather quickly and you will get your answers.

Judging Value System?


If these two tests don't clarify a person's values, then that person is no longer a human being and has no conscience left.
