The vehicle employed to explore this issue is a model of basic values that point to personal and cross-cultural roots of tension in interpersonal relationships and assists individuals in mastering such tension. The model was developed by Marvin Mayers and first published in 1974 in his Christianity Confronts Culture... Since 1974, Mayers has extensively refined the model and further elaborated its application in Christian ministries.</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Sherwood G.
