It was determined the general structure of students’ motivation and value orientation according attending physical education classes by each university particularly. There was performed comparable analysis of significance ranking of the motives to attend physical education classes and also generalized differences between females and males in the choice of motivation priority. It was determined that 57,9% of students that have been taking part in the questionnaire, think that priority motive to attend physical education classes is to get credits from the course, while body strengthening has second priority place (47,9%).
