| Summary: | A comparison of children´s values
(from 10 to 12 years old) was made between
children from Mexico and France. It was based
on 202 Mexican and 118 French children,
enrolled in fifth and sixth grade of elementary
school. For this the Valdez Medina (2001)
instrument was used. The applications were
made in collective form in the classrooms.
Results show that there are differences in the
values that guide a child´s life, finding that
Mexican children are oriented by working
values, in contrast to French children who are
guided by altruistic values. By comparing the
values in relation to sex for each culture, it was
possible to observe that Mexican girls consider
themselves to be more educated than boys.
Also, in the case of France, it was interesting
to observe that guys are more effective and
practice good manners more than girls, which
contrasts with what was observed |
