Abstract

Education level is probably one of the main determinants of importance certain value orientations.This work aims to identify the most obvious and clearly traced links between the value orientations of Russians andthe level of education. The analyzed materials of sociological surveys strongly support the idea that different levelsof education influence value attitudes; as for the thesis that higher levels of education contribute to the transitionfrom materialistic to post-materialistic values, this idea also finds confirmation, but only partially, since in a numberof cases it is impossible to draw confident conclusions due to the peculiarities of the formulation of the question.As a first approximation, it seems that in modern Russian society for people with a high level of education it is morecorrect to speak not about the transition to post-materialistic values, but about a combination of traditional andpost-materialistic values.
