Sažetak
Values are a part of each individual’s personality, the starting point for making their opinions and creating their attitudes; they regulate individual’s actions and acceptance or rejection of social norms.
Values are developed within the framework of authentic living community and are formed by personal choices and actions of individuals. Values play an important role in governing the behavior of individuals. This paper portrays the analysis of basic life values and the results of empirical research regarding the intergenerational transfer of values from parents to children attending senior levels of the Tucepi Elementary School. Research used the original instrument by authors Crace and Brown “Assessment of values that guide behavior and influence decision-making” (1996). The results indicate there is an intergenerational transfer of values: responsibility, independence, creativity, material security and personal care. Signifi cant statistical difference between children and parents was established in the assessment of value significance: self-realization (successfulness), belonging, ecological awareness, solidarity, health, modesty, traditional/family values, knowledge (learning) and spirituality. Positive correlation between values was established: ecological awareness and health, ecological awareness and spirituality, spirituality and health, modesty and knowledge. The existence of negative correlation was established between satisfaction with life and belonging and traditional values. Negative correlation was established between life satisfaction and belonging and traditional values. The analysis did not show correlation between employment of parents and their estimation of life satisfaction. Results have shown the children are more satisfied with their life than the parents.
