摘要:AbstractThis study examined values important for parents of primary school students. Data was collected using Schwartz's Portrait Values Questionnaire, which included Power, Achievement, Hedonism, Stimulation, Self-direction, Universalism, Benevolence, Tradition, Conformity and Security values. Schwartz's Portrait Values Questionnaire, which consisted of 40 articles, was translated into Turkish by Demirutku.The instrument was administered to the parents of primary school students. The participant schools were selected according to the socio-economic conditions. The sample of this study included 238 mothers, 151 fathers and 13 other relatives (e.g. grandmother, grandfather, uncle, aunt).Responses given by the parents were examined, and means and standard deviations were calculated accordingly. The data, then, was compared with parametric tests (e.g. t -test and Anova). The data obtained was compared to each other in terms of kinship, age, occupation, education level, and students’ grade level. As a result, the study concluded that families embraced similar values, and these values did not change significantly in terms of age, occupation, education level, and students’ grade level.
