Abstract
ABSTRACT Cross-cultural research reveals that indicators for macro-level modernization cannot unequivocally be related to the vivid cultural distinctiveness of youths and adults. In this article German and Dutch survey data (Jugend '92 and SOCON '90 respectively) are used to further assess influences of youths cultural features in both countries. These influences are indicated with the concept of youth centrism and the cultural features are indicated with a selection of attitudes which are common in both surveys, and which can be confined to a factor measuring a hedonistic type of individualism. LISREL-analyses are employed first to trace and evaluate common models, and next to make gender, age and educational group comparisons for both countries.
