Journal Title: Problems of Psychology in the 21st Century - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study aims to provide an analysis of values and attitudes in a sample of post-graduate students and to provide an assessment of the impact and satisfaction that they had been reported in specifc educational activities for solidarity. This study is framed by the project of educational innovation “A cross sectional study in education for solidarity in the training of psychologists and educators” (PIE 10-127; 2010-2012). Participants were 226 post-graduate students belonging to various specialities of the MSc in Teaching of Secondary Education and High School, Vocational Training, and Teaching Languages, aged between 22 and 49 years. The data obtained demonstrate that the majority of the interviewes strongly agree with aspects of the situation that can be considered stealing, a violent action or the avoidance of conflict. Most students graduate participants do not collaborate with NGOs; who mention the lack of time, the issue not being raised as well as not being involved in any solidarity activity noting as reasons: lack of information, idleness, not having the opportunity presented and not having the funds to do so. In addition, students have found these educational activities for solidarity very satisfactory, for example, the “discussions, work and reflection on the importance of volunteerism and solidarity in the present world” and “design of a solidarity act”.
