Abstract

This research enables to know the impact of the Transversal Axis of Ethics and Values, in the development of
interpersonal values in the students of the first and eight cycle of a private university. The aforementioned axis
is complementary to the academic education in aspects related to values like solidarity, leadership, support,
among others; and it has as the objective to contribute to human education. For this research it was used the
Survey of Interpersonal Values of Leonard Gordon, applying it to a sample of 366 students from different
professional schools from the 1st and VIII cycle of studies; from which 232 students correspond to the first cycle
and 134 students correspond to the eight cycle.
The main obtained results clearly show that the Transversal Axis of Ethics and Values has influenced in the
development of compliance and recognition in the students of different professional schools. The VIII cycle
students show a more analytic attitude toward conventional social rules. The 1st cycle students show a greater
necessity to be recognized and admired by others. The values of support, independence, benevolence and leadership
do not present significant differences between the groups of students from the 1st and the VIII cycle; but it is
observed a slight increase in the values of independence and leadership in favor of the VIII cycle students.
The results by gender point out that for male students the scale that presents significant differences is the one
from recognition. For the female students the scales with differences are the ones from compliance and recognition.
