Abstract :
Values are abstract concepts of worth — what we think is good or important. They guide the way we feel and act about certain ideas, things, situations and people. They are principles which guide decisions and actions. Values are formed through experiences over time. A value in itself is neither good nor bad. We are influenced every day by our values. The feelings and attitudes that we have about the relative worth or importance of things make up our values. Deteriorating moral values are becoming a serious problem among the secondary school children. There are several factors which put immense influence for value inculcation in the students. The present paper aims to study those factors which are responsible for deteriorating moral values among the secondary school children. The study has been conducted on the 100 students of 4 different secondary schools of Patna. A self made value questionnaire was administered upon the students to find out the factors which influence their moral values and the result drawn that they are influenced by many sources — including parents, friends, teachers, the media and internet.
