Abstract

The main objective of this article is the analysis of the family institution of young university students, belonging to the Faculties of Educational Sciences, Business and Sciences at the University of Granada. First of all, we review the state of the art regarding the plural concept of family in our society. Then we explain the general characteristics of our research work to focus on the study and analysis of the family in these young students. From the results obtained in our research work we can describe the axiological hierarchy of university students, marked by ecologic, moral and affective values as well as the strong family valuation, especially the mother, followed in importance by the father, brothers, sisters and grandparents. Finally, based on the data of our research, we propose some educative guidelines.
