Value-conflicts lie at the very ischolar_main of an individual's identity, they are extremely difficult to resolve and descalation of the conflicts become an essential need for the welfare of mankind because they hold the seed of personality disorganization and inversely related to adjustment. Conflict regarding intrapersonal and interpersonal value preference starts occurring from late childhood, while it becomes more prominent among adolescents as they are more prone to various types of conflict. The present research has made an attempt to study value preferences and value-conflict among college students of Ludhiana district.

Values refer to wider notion of collective identity:religious values, attitudes towards materialism,moral beliefs and a sense of collectie awareness and are a broader and more encompassing concept. Values are ideas, opinions and attitudes about the core content of human civilization and socialization. Under the influence of globalization, openness, information coming from the media and contact with other cultures, traditional values are changing. The globalization processes also affect local communities with their traditional values. These changes are creating confusion and disbelief especially in the minds of the younger generation. The current state of globalization, modernization, political and cultural diversity is causing imbalance in the proportion of the common concept of values. This study presents the sociological analysis of the changing value system and its effects on society, especially on the youth. The main objectives were to explore the major value changes and its implications on the society due to rapid development of globalization along with other change agents. Changes were reflected in the existing value system through the process of globalization, modernization and media communication. Besides this young people are particularly vulnerable to this change due to many reasons such as freedom of choice, growing materialism,blind imitation to western culture and changing family structure.Keywords

Spiritual intelligence has a significant influence on the quality of life and it goes without saying that adolescence is a sensitive period which requires specific training to make a brighter future and be exposed to the difficulties. The present investigation aimed to explore the levels of spiritual intelligence among male and female adolescents and its association with selected socio personal factors. The sample comprised of400 college going adolescents (equally distributed over locale & gender; 200 rural & 200 urban; 200 males & 200 females) in the age range of 18-20 years belonging to intact families. The sample was randomly drawn from government and private colleges of rural and urban Ludhiana. The Roqan Spiritual Intelligence Test by Zanuddin and Ahmed was used to assess the spiritual intelligence of the respondents. It comprised 78 items distributed over six dimensions. The results of the study revealed that locale wise, there was no significant difference among adolescents while, gender wise analysis revealed significant difference in dimensions of interself, spiritual actualization and value orientation. Female adolescents were found to be more inclined towards spirituality in comparison to male adolescents. It was also found that gender was significantly associated with interself andbiostoria dimensions.Keywords
