Abstract

The purpose of the study was to understand the individual and collective values of the university students of the Francisco Morazán National Pedagogical University of Honduras, from Schwartz Theory, who proposes 10 types of value (power, achievement, hedonism, self-direction, stimulation, universalism, benevolence, tradition, compliance, security).The Schwarz Values Questionnaire (CVS) was administered to 321 students attending different academic levels in their respective study courses. The findings indicate similarity between the structure of values that Schwartz’s theory proposes and the ten types of value of this population. In addition, the importance they attach to collective values in relation to individual values was identified, which is a contribution in the knowledge of this construct.
