The basis of the research was an assumption that due to apparent sexualization of television content, it is legitimate to querry how this may impact adolescents attitudes. As studying attitudes is rather complex, the author primarily focused on analyzing relationships between attitudes and TV viewing, be it in terms of TV consumption or programme preferences. Secondary goal was to look at other possible predictors of attitudes, such as religiousness of parents, parentsáttitudes , adolescents´alues and their bondage to church. The results confirmed the impact of TV viewing on the attitude disapproving of premarital sex in such sense that the more TV viewing, the weaker negative attitude to premarital sex is. Other important predictors were found, e.g. religiousness of parents and their attitudes, conformity and adolescents´ bondage to church.
