Values can be investigated at the individual or group level, just like other cognitive structures. To put it another way, societies, cultures, and other social groups have values-based norms, priorities, and rules that specify what people should do in order to act in a proper, moral or valued way. Currently, the study of values is more specifically concerned with the situations in which values influence behaviour. In doing so, the study elaborates on the ramifications of creating value education in various domains.

The research aims to compare the differences in these correlations between the two groups and formulates a series of hypotheses to test these differences. The study employs a Descriptive Survey method with a sample of 151 undergraduate students from the Purulia district of West Bengal, selected through random sampling. Data is collected using Choi and Feinberg's 'Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability Scale', and the coefficient of correlation is calculated for various pairs of variables. The study also evaluates the difference in correlation between dichotomous variables like stream (artsscience). The major findings indicate that arts and science undergraduate students exhibit remarkably similar correlations between LOHAS and health-related variables. These correlations remain consistent and do not significantly differ between the two groups. The relationships between health-related variables, such as physical fitness, mental health, emotional health, spiritual health, environmentalism, and social consciousness, also show comparability for both arts and science students. This suggests that there are no substantial distinctions in how these aspects of well-being and sustainability are perceived or interrelated among the two student populations.
