Summary/Abstract: Research carried out in a group of first years students of study (N = 302) concerned theimportance of social orientation of self (according to the concept of Singelis, Triandisand co-workers) and experience gained in college in the areas corresponding to theseorientations for the satisfaction of the study. The results showed that in the researchgroup horizontal orientations dominated vertical. The important determinants of satisfactionwith studies both in women and men were positive experience in the field ofhorizontal collectivism (supporting peer relationships) and horizontal individualism(autonomy), but immediately those orientations were not determined the satisfaction.Vertical orientations and experience related to them were irrelevant for satisfaction inwomen, while in men the orientation of vertical individualism disrupted (weakly) theachievement of satisfaction.
