In this paper, we derive a relation of new kind between certain character values of symmetric groups in terms of so-called maya diagrams. We also investigate a relation between our result and Bernstein's creation operators for Schur functions, and consider analogous relations for projective characters of symmetric groups through creation operators for Schur $Q$-functions. We also consider analogous relations for characters of Brauer algebras and walled Brauer algebras.
