Değerlerin Kuşaklar Arası Değişimi: Ankara Örneği

Abstract

The subject of this study is to examine process of value change across generations at Ankara sample. The results demonstrate that value change across generations comes to pass slowly and in the long term this change would be massive.The second result demonstrate that value orientations of generations has been changing and are quite consistent across generations and in the directions expected. Causes explaining the change at value priorities of generations are neither exactly socio-demographic factors nor arethey merely religiosity. Instead, both age, education, income as well as religiosity are the strong effects to understand the change of values as a guiding principles across generations.The third result in this research indicates that common culture compromises on common (fundamental) values but not to be differentiated in terms of the gender and belief factors(perspectives) in Ankara sample.
