Morphology
The noun phrase combines 'value' (a guiding belief) and 'orientation' (a prevailing attitude) in a directly compositional way, so the overall meaning of a set or direction of values follows naturally from the parts. This construction and logic are cross‑linguistically common and would be understandable to a B1 learner who knows both constituent words.
Etymology
Value orientation comes from the image of a compass: values are like points on a compass and orientation is the direction you face. So it means the set of beliefs about right and wrong that 'guide' a person's actions.
