Abstract
Personal Values are the reflection of the highest principle of mind and thought, and
can even be said to be a part of spiritual domain of the individual. They play a very
important role in the motivation of adolescents to varied behaviours. This study was
done on 90 students to evaluate their religious, social, democratic, aesthetic,
economic, knowledge, hedonistic, power, family prestige and health values. The results
did not show any differences between male and female students on any of these
values. This shows that no gender difference exists in ethical beliefs and both male
and female use almost similar processes for evaluation of ethical situations.
