Summary/Abstract: If the family is considered to be a part of the foundation of each society, marriage is one of the basic prerequisites for the survival and functioning of the necessity to research attitudes regarding marriage. Including even those members of the population who find themselves in the "antechamber" of this institution. In this paper the author presents research findings concerning these attitudes obtained on three occasions (1971, 1981, 1991) on a sample of Istrian graduates. In addition to that, the author presents the analysis of attitudes towards premarital sexual life of the same examinees. And, finally, he displays data regarding sexual experience ("sexual participation") of Istrian graduates from 1981 and 1991. These findings prove that sexual revolution has had great influence on young people in Istria. In spite of AIDS.
