Abstract

This dialogue explores the concepts of “good” and “good-making properties” as such, and as applied to human beings, with respect to our intrinsic, moral, and other kinds of goodness. There are many different kinds of human goodness, each with its own distinctive good-making properties. All seemingly enduring properties of both persons and things are actually processes in which qualities and relations are constantly being created and recreated from moment to moment. Measuring personal values with the Hartman Value Profile must take account of the fact that human personalities are temporally ordered.
