The experience of the cross-cultural investigation of valuable orientations of students of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia)

Abramova, M.A.

Abstract

The author submits a brief review of the existing methods of the cross-cultural study of personal values. The study of these materials allow her to choose a special method for carrying out investigation on differentiation of values of students of Yakutia, as well as to substantiate such choice. After the example of using the method of structurological typologization applied by Schwarz, the results of testing values orientations of students of the Yakutsk City are analysed. As one of the problematical aspects of investigation, the conflict of generations relative to domination of the material and spiritual values is chosen. The attempt to determine the place of money and material wealth in the system of the strategical and technical values of the youth is carried out with taking into consideration the peculiarities of the ethnocultural approach.
