Abstract

In this research the author starts from the two hyptheses that rapid changes and contemporary reality bring fear of the future to which not even students are immune, and that among students we can recognize different value orientations in relation to the past, present and future. From a sample of 189 students of Pedagogy and Teacher Education Department, it is observed that over 80% of them show certain degree of fear, whereas a factor analysis has presented that the fear is latently generated by three components: contemplation of the future, global processes and taking over the responsibility for one's own long-term goals.
