Summary/Abstract: An appropriately formed pedagogical context for learning in the family and in upbringing-educational institutions enables successful socialization of young people and the internalization of values promoted by those social groups. Research was carried out on a sample of 1039 students studying various professions. This research determined that among young people the most important family values nurtured in their families and which they wished to pass on to future generations were predominately: love, religiousness, responsibility and to a smaller extent obedience, diligence, tolerance, respect and education.Amongst the values which should be nurtured at school, research participants emphasized: responsibility, diligence, cooperation, tolerance, independence, persistence, self-confidence and obedience. There is a higher likelihood that certain values will be internalized when these same values are supported by the family and upbringing-educational institutions as direct representation of the values which society supports in general.
