This thesis used the results of two nationwide studies to describe the values associated with youth in the counter culture and to compare these values with those of other youth and adults in the general population. The purpose of this description and comparison was to determine if there is a significant difference between the values of counter cultural youth and those of other segments of the population.Results of the study showed that the group of young, well-educated protestors sampled had large percentages of liberals in four value areas. It was suggested that this group represented a vanguard of the counter culture. Additionally, the results indicated that among collegeeducated adults up to the age of forty there were above average percentages of liberals. These results give tentative indication that the counter cultural values studied were notlimited to youth.
