(absolute) values
Explanation:
I would simply use values here. There is a slight possibility that the absulute values might be meant. If whatever is measured here might be negative or a vector, it would make sense to take its absolute value before displaying it in the fashion described. Otherwise, or if you aren't sure what is measured, simply translate as values.
