Abstract

A value is a belief, a mission, or a philosophy that is meaningful. Whether one is consciously aware of them or not, every individual has a core set of personal values. Values can range from the commonplace, such as the belief in hard work and punctuality, to the more psychological, such as self reliance, concern for others and harmony of purpose, (John 2009). Values are the nexus to future progress. It is the call of the Divine to the minds of men to seek a better life to pursue ultimate delight and fulfilment in life, (Momen, 2009). The present study was formulated to investigate the values of adolescent girls of Imphal West of Manipur and Coimbatore city of Tamil Nadu to see the differential pattern in values. By looking at people from different culture and ethnic groups, researchers can learn which aspects of development are universal and are culturally determined,(Papalia et al 2007). Explore and compare the values of the selected girls of Imphal west and Coimbatore city in relation to selected variables was the objectives of the research. Key Words:values, adolescence, adolescent girls, cross cultural study Policy
