Values are purposes of which importance is desired differently and goals beyond situation that shape the lives of individuals (Güngör, 2000 : 84) . They are also common ideas, purposes, fundamental moral principles and beliefs accepted right and necessary by the majority of a social group or community in order to maintain and sustain its own existence, unity, functioning and maintenance (Kızılçelik and Erjem 1994: 99) . Defining what individuals consider important; values indicate desires, preferences, and desired or undesired situations (Erdem, 2003 : 56) . It is possible to multiply these definitions however although several definitions have been made for values an exact and unique definition has not been agreed on. Generally values are desired opinions and rules accepted by society in terms of directing human behavior for good.  \nThis study was prepared on the basis of thesis study titled “The Evaluation of Secondary School Students’Attitudes towards Social Values In Terms of Gender.”  \nFichter stated that these three factors must be  \nconsidered examining social values:  \n1. The object itself which is an actual value,  \n2. The capacity of the object fulfilling social requirements, 3. People’s appreciation for this object due to their satisfaction and the capacity to satisfy (Özensel, 2003: 225) .  \nBesides behaviors, values are closely related to belief, judgment, purpose, attitude, and purpose concepts. While giving shape to these concepts they also give shape to values concept and contribute to its boundaries and aspects. There is mutual relationship between them. Basically although values are associated with beliefs and attitudes they are more inclusive than both beliefs and attitudes (Demircioğlu and Tokdemir, 2008) . The features of the value can be specified as:  \n1. Values are connective phenomena adopted by individuals or society.  \n2. They are criteria believed to be for the good of  \nindividuals and fulfill social requirements of the society.  \n3. They are judgments not only regarding consciousness but feelings and excitements as well.  \n4. Values are prompts that direct behavior that takes place in the consciousness of individual.  \n5. The difference between values and norms is that: norms have more general and abstract qualification while values include norm (MNE, 2004) .  \nIn thi","cbCaiguDud9HvR7t","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiguDud9HvR7t","pdf",164613,"English","# Introduction\n## Concept of values and related definitions\n## Features and hierarchy of values\n## Social approval and values development","[{\"question\":\"What is the study’s main purpose?\",\"answer\":\"To investigate values education by revealing secondary school students’ attitudes toward social values and examining how those attitudes are influenced by gender.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the data collected and how many students participated?\",\"answer\":\"A quantitative research method was used.
