Moral Alignment Questionnaire (MAQ-27)

Normative and Psychometric Statistics
STRONG N=890 α=0.751 49Countries

Moral Alignment Questionnaire (MAQ-27) normative dataset currently contains 890 participant records collected between Jun 9, 2026 and Jul 6, 2026 .

This psychometric dataset currently includes 890 anonymous participant responses collected through voluntary participation. The observed mean score was 58.64 with a standard deviation of 10.15, indicating moderate score variability within the sampled population. Internal consistency reliability analysis demonstrated acceptable reliability (Cronbach alpha = 0.751). Observed skewness (-2.07) and kurtosis (6.92) were examined as indicators of distribution quality. The current score distribution exhibited notable departures from normality and should be interpreted cautiously until additional normative data are collected.

Item Analysis Interpretation

Item–total correlations were generally strong across the assessment, indicating that most items contribute effectively to the measurement of the underlying construct. The analysis identified12 itemsthat may benefit from future review.

Items Recommended for Future Review
  • Q2 (r = 0.28)
    I try to help others even when it is inconvenient.
  • Q3 (r = 0.26)
    Doing the right thing matters more than personal gain.
  • Q12 (r = 0.08)
    Duty is more important than personal feelings.
  • Q13 (r = 0.09)
    I avoid taking extreme positions.
  • Q15 (r = 0.21)
    Maintaining balance is important to me.
  • Q17 (r = 0.16)
    I act spontaneously rather than planning carefully.
  • Q19 (r = -0.14)
    Strict authority is necessary even if people suffer.
  • Q21 (r = -0.03)
    I value efficiency more than compassion.
  • Q22 (r = 0.14)
    I mainly focus on protecting my own interests.
  • Q23 (r = 0.14)
    I would manipulate someone if it helped me succeed.
  • Q24 (r = -0.02)
    Morality is less important than personal advantage.
  • Q27 (r = 0.09)
    I act on impulse without considering consequences.
The lowest item–total correlation was observed for Q19 ("Strict authority is necessary even if people suffer."; r = -0.14), indicating comparatively weaker alignment with the overall construct.

Normative Data Notice

A total of 890 participant responses were available for this assessment. Dimension-level norms were calculated using 855 valid response records. Approximately 35 response record(s) were excluded from dimension-level normative calculations due to incomplete response patterns.

Limitations

Normative statistics are derived from voluntary participation and may not represent all populations. Reliability estimates, percentile norms, and dimension statistics should be interpreted in the context of the current sample and may change as additional responses are collected.
