Abstract

The Turkic peoples, one of the oldest nations in the world, have made invaluable contributions to human civilization with their historically rich system of national, spiritual and moral values, and have always maintained their identity with their unshakable commitment to sublime and pure ideals. The successful harmony of the progressive traditions of the East with the values of the West in our spiritual culture also has an impact on the formation of national self-consciousness in the younger generation, bringing together different worldviews and cultures in our national thinking.
Therefore, every Turkish youth must be aware of their psychological past in order to understand themselves correctly, and thus apply to the ethno genesis and ethno psychological past of their people in order to know what moral and psychological qualities they have and how their people are progressing. From this point of view, the epos "Book of Dede Korkud" is our source of reference in the formation of national self-consciousness in Turkic-speaking peoples and the correct formation of national spirit in the young generation in modern times.
The results of research on the formation of national self-awareness in the younger generation have practical importance in relation and attitude to young people in the family and society.
