Abstract

The article presents the results of the study of the subject area related to the attitude of young people to the preservation of spiritual and moral values. We carried out a multilevel analysis of the process of formation of spiritual and moral values of the younger generation. The theoretical prerequisites of the empirical part of the study are based on a brief review of the literature; it is reflected in the information blocks of the toolkit. To study the attitude of young people (to the preservation of spiritual and moral values in the regional community) 3 information sections were identified as part of the questionnaire survey. 1st section – opinions of young people about family and marriage relations; 2nd section – preservation of traditional values of the people and the country; 3rd section – attitude to religion and participation in helping others. The survey database was processed in the SPSS Statistics program (version 23). The assessment of the attitude of young people (to the preservation of spiritual and moral values in the regional community) makes it possible to use information to improve the spiritual and moral education of young people by such social institutions as education, social protection of the population, culture and youth policy. The results of the study contribute to the information and analytical support of programs for the socio-cultural development of the territories of the South of Russia and the sustainable development of the regional community.
