[Profiles of youths in modern society and health risks].
The youngsters are clearly conditioned by the society where they live, though they may feel apart. These youngsters have benefited from more educative and material resources than generations before, and their vital and social itinerary will depend, in great part, from the behaviours and attitudes acquired during adolescence and youth. They have not been formed in austerity and determination. They mainly value the near and the present. Courses of action more determined by the emotional than by the rational. While tolerant, they have selfish traits with self-contradictions between end- and instrumental values (effort, dedication, compromise), and certain indifference for the religion. Finally, they are demonstrate solidarity in specific situations.
