The study covered 190 young inhabitants of the city, who in 1993 were 15-16 years old. The objective was to show the behaviour of the youth towards the parents; the key issue being what kinds of behaviour there are, whether they are of a recurrent nature or whether they are subject to changes, how distinct the changes are and what their direction is. The results lead to the following conclusions. (1) The structure of behaviour of young people inhabiting the Polish-German border town towards the parents is complex and complicated. The behaviour which favours establishing proper relations with the parents are accompanied by behaviour which impedes enhancement of such relations. (2) The behaviour of the youth being examined towards the parents is of a principally recurrent (stable) character. The shifts noticed in the examinations consist in a relatively imperceptible strengthening of the sign related to a given behaviour.plArtykuł
