Świat wartości DZIEWCZYNY w opinii uczniów klas gimnazjalnych
The world of values of a GIRL from the perspective of junior high school students

Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to reconstruct a linguistic image of the world of values of a GIRL from the point of view of young users (junior high school students) of the Polish language. The basis of the research constituted the analysis of 265 responses to the question: „What does a girl value and what does not she value?”. An auto-stereotypical perspective (outlined on the basis of female student opinions) presents more often positive values than a hetero-stereotypical one (boys’ responses). The boys reveal a more critical (including, an instrumental) attitude towards a GIRL and her world of values (they consider her a nihilist and materialist). From the point of view of the students of both sexes, the “questionnaire” girl values good behaviour , appearance, and interpersonal relations (which is also connected with sincerity and sense of humour).
