Scenario could be used to evaluate individuals' values, preferences, and attitudes about special issues or content as a data collecting approach in research. The aim of this study is to investigate the participants' preferences and values about particular situations. The participants consisted of 104 senior elementary education students at the education faculty. In order to collect the data, five scenarios were presented to students and then asked them to write how they behaved when they experienced the situation in the scenario. After collecting students' responses, content analysis were used to examine students' preferences and ranked from highest to lowest. The results indicated that almost half of the students in this study had attitudes and tendencies towards cheating. However, the majority of the students expressed honestly to share with their parents. On the other hand, they expressed that they were willing to help as a witness to investigate to find truth in case of that it was not their business. The importance of the study investigated has a crucial indication for future of society to be order and dynamisms
