Resumo: Analyzing the behaviors, values and attitudes of youth allows us to make a merciless examination of our time, helping to understand the tangled roots of our collective experience, so that, when analyzing their options, we are not only studying the present time, but also to envision the future of our society. Having said that, the present study aims to analyze the practices, values and attitudes of young people in order to better understand their current evaluative and religious tendencies. Through a quantitative methodology, students at the University of Minho were surveyed, aged between 18 and 35 years. From the conclusions it appears that young people look for more individualistic and less social occupations, allowing them moments of personal satisfaction. Regarding their religious and evaluative dimension, it was found that little or no participation in religious services and that they show high levels of justification for certain behaviors, appearing to react openly to practices that are normally disapproved of by society. Environmental Protection, Racism and Xenophobia and Gender Violence are the current topics that deserve greater concern on the part of young university students.

Exposto isto, o presente estudo visa analisar as práticas, valores e atitudes dos jovens de forma a melhor compreender as suas atuais tendências valorativas e religiosas. Através de uma metodologia quantitativa, inqueriu-se estudantes na Universidade do Minho, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 35 anos. Das conclusões depreende-se que os jovens procuram atividades de ocupação mais individualistas e menos sociais, possibilitando-lhes momentos de satisfação pessoal. Quanto à sua dimensão religiosa e valorativa, verificou-se que pouco ou nada participam nos serviços religiosos e que manifestam níveis elevados de justificação para determinados comportamentos, aparentando reagir abertamente a práticas que, normalmente, são desaprovadas pela sociedade. A Proteção do ambiente, o Racismo e a xenofobia e a Violência de género constituem os temas da atualidade que merecem maior preocupação por parte dos jovens universitários.El análisis de los comportamientos, valores y actitudes de los jóvenes nos permite hacer un examen implacable de nuestro tiempo, ayudándonos a comprender las raíces enmarañadas de nuestra experiencia colectiva, de modo que al analizar sus elecciones no sólo estamos estudiando el tiempo presente, sino que también vislumbramos el futuro de nuestra sociedad. Por ello, el presente estudio pretende analizar las prácticas, los valores y las actitudes de los jóvenes para comprender mejor sus tendencias valorativas y religiosas actuales. A través de una metodología cuantitativa, se encuestó a estudiantes de la Universidad de Minho, de entre 18 y 35 años. De las conclusiones se desprende que los jóvenes buscan actividades ocupacionales más individualistas y menos sociales, que les posibilitan momentos de satisfacción personal. En cuanto a su dimensión religiosa y de valores, se constató que participan poco o nada en los servicios religiosos, y que manifiestan altos niveles de justificación de ciertos comportamientos, pareciendo reaccionar abiertamente ante prácticas que normalmente son desaprobadas por la sociedad. La protección del Medio Ambiente, el Racismo, la xenofobia y la Violencia de Género son los temas de actualidad que merecen una mayor preocupación por parte de los jóvenes universitarios.Veritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaMadureira, SaraDuque, EduardoVázquez, Durán2022-10-25T16:50:28Z2022-07-012022-07-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/39179eng1982-558710.21723/riaee.v17i3.17199000882946900033info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:44:41Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/39179Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:32:01.565520Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
