Description The paper deals with leisure time activities of fifteen- through nineteen-year-old adolescents, values that they accept, and their locus of control. A time snapshot of a day and a list of most important values have been obtained and described by questionnaire method supplemented with interviews. Groups of adolescents who tend to spend time in a similar way are identified. These groups are compared from the perspective of accepted values and perceived locus of control. Differences between male and female respondents and among various types of their school are analysed. Possible causes of findings and acquired information about the life of the current generation of young Czechs are discussed.
