A multistage sampling was used: in the first stage students from all denominational schools were included, then students from the assigned non-denominational schools, while in the second stage we included students from the 9th and 11th grades (N=1927). A questionnaire was used as a data collection instrument. We were interested to find out which educational sector boasted most prominently the dimensions of autonomy and conformity values and whether they correlate with the decision-making process regarding the choice of school type.application/pdfparenting valuesschool choicedenominational schoolnon-denominational schoolfolyóiratcikkOpen Accessby the authorshttps://doi.org/10.37441/cejer/2023/5/2/13272Central European Journal of Educational Research25CEJER2677-0326
