Summary/Abstract: This research aimed to investigate the individual importance of certain social values in the context of the complex processes of Romania’s integration in the European Union. Based on the questionnaire applied in three high schools in Arad, we observed how young people relate to social norms and values, as well as the concordance/discrepancy between desirable and real attitudes. The responses of given by the subjects enabled the creation of correlations and associations between different attitudes and behaviors, and also allowed us to draw conclusions to improve the educational efforts undertaken to this end.
