What are the values of today’s teenagers? What are the patterns and aspirations that guide them? Adolescence is a stage in the life cycle in which the set of values that guide choices and behavior is formed. This construction is closely related to the social and cultural context of reference. In post-modern societies, adults no longer pass on to young people their conceptions of the world and life, and the great ideologies that influenced past generations no longer exist. In this situation, adolescents find themselves without a compass, which creates the conditions for them to experience different and multiple forms of discomfort and malaise.

Abstract
What are the values of today’s teenagers? What are the patterns and aspirations that guide them? Adolescence is a stage in the life cycle in which the set of values that guide choices and behavior is formed. This construction is closely related to the social and cultural context of reference. In post-modern societies, adults no longer pass on to young people their conceptions of the world and life, and the great ideologies that influenced past generations no longer exist. In this situation, adolescents find themselves without a compass, which creates the conditions for them to experience different and multiple forms of discomfort and malaise.Pubblicazioni consigliate
