Sažetak

This paper presents and analyzes the attitudes of university students on presence, characteristics, causes and ways to overcome the crisis of morality. The aim of this study was to determine whether and how students recognize the presence of a morality crisis in our society, as well as the causes of this phenomenon. Also, the intention of the authors of this paper is to determine students' attitudes about the connection between morality crisis and the role of school, family and other social institutions. In particular, it highlights the role of the family, schools, media, and their mutual cooperation in moral education. Furthermore, one of the aims of this study was to determine the extent to which students are consistent in their moral actions. This paper presents and explains verbally expressed students' attitudes about moral issues, as well as data obtained by empirical research. The general impression is that the students are aware of the presence of morality crisis, of the main characteristics and causes of the crisis, as well as partial ideas about ways of coping with it. However, the dominating attitudes of students are fear, pessimism, uncertainty and distrust in their own abilities. Also, a significant number of students, according to their attitudes, express inconsistency in their moral actions.
