Fair point. To me, I think the term 'value' feels concrete, but evidently it's confusing the point for you. What term would you use, other than 'fundamental underlying psychology?'
"Preference" might be better in connotation, although equivalent in denotation. People outside of Less Wrong tend to think of the utility of a clean house as more of a 'preference' and the utility of a human life as more of a 'value'.
I'll second orthonormal and suggest "preference" (although "value" seems just as good).
emotional response?
