In June 2002, a descriptive questionnaire survey concerning acquirement of 13 items of consciousness and values was conducted towards children/students (n = 511) in three regions (the urban, rural and mountainous regions) of northern Thailand. In addition, the other survey concerning parents' (n = 98) hope their children/students to acquire was also conducted in the urban and rural areas. The results were statistically analyzed. Regional differences are remarkable in the lower grades, but disappear in the higher grades. In the lower grades they are presumably affected by regional culture. On the other hand, in the higher grades they are presumably caused by the effect of student's common sense (e.g. general knowledge, logical thinking, wider perspective as Thai citizens). The traditional values are mainly recognized in the mountainous village, lower grades, and parents in the rural area. The advanced values are seen in the city, higher grades, and parents in the urban area. The rural town and middle grades show intermediate characteristics. Meanwhile, children/students possess individual values, but their parents possess groupism. The parents consider that their children/students acquire such consciousness and values as needed in a group society. As compared with their parents' consciousness and values of the 1979 and 2002 surveys, the percentage of 'Politeness and neatness' reduced, since 'Feeling of responsibility' and 'Patience' increase in 2002. A gradual change is recognized between the two periods in the consciousness and values which parents want their children/students to acquire.
