Studija se bavi istraživanjem međuodnosa socijalne
anksioznosti i prihvaćenosti među vršnjacima, akademskom
samoučinkovitosti i akademskom uspješnosti učenika slovenskih
gimnazija. N = 277 učenika ...(58% djevojaka) od 16 do 17
godina, ispunilo je Ljestvicu socijalne anksioznosti za
adolescente, Sociometrijski test, upitnik "Pogodi tko" te Ljestvicu
akademske samoučinkovitosti. Učenici su odgovorili i na
dodatna pitanja o njihovoj dobrobiti i socijalnoj prihvaćenosti u
razredu. Nalazi su pokazali da većina socijalno anksioznih
učenika pripada sociometrijskoj skupini odbačenih učenika,
koje su njihovi vršnjaci opisali kao anksiozne učenike negativna
raspoloženja. Pokazalo se da socijalno anksiozniji učenici imaju
niži stupanj dobrobiti u razredu i da ih njihovi vršnjaci manje
prihvaćaju. Konačno, viši stupanj socijalne anksioznosti bio je
povezan s nižom akademskom samoučinkovitosti, ali s boljim
akademskim uspjehom u školi.
Izhodišča. Zasvojenost od alkohola je zelo pogosta in kompleksna bolezen. Zasvojeni od alkohola imajo veliko tveganje za pojav sopojavne psihiatrične motnje. Metode. V prvi tovrstni slovenski ...raziskavi smo preverili prisotnost in izraženost simptomatike najpogostejših sopojavnih duševnih motenj pri zasvojenih od alkohola. Vključili smo tri skupine moških: 101 preiskovanca, hospitaliziranega zaradi zdravljenja akutne zasvojenosti od alkohola, 100 abstinentnih preiskovancev in 97 zdravih kontrol iz skupine prostovoljnih krvodajalcev. Za oceno simptomatike smo uporabili vprašalnike AUDIT, Yale-Brownovo lestvico obsesivnosti in kompulzivnosti ter lestvico obsesivno-kompulzivnega pitja, Zungovo lestvico depresivnosti in anksioznosti, Kratko lestvico socialne fobije in Buss-Durkeejevo lestvico sovražnosti. Rezultati. V skupini preiskovancev z akutno zasvojenostjo so bili pomembno bolj izražene obsesivna (p < 0,001) in kompulzivna simptomatika (p < 0,001) ter obsesivno-kompulzivna simptomatika, vezana na pitje alkoholnih pijač (p < 0,001), kot v preostalih dveh skupinah. Pri preiskovancih z akutno zasvojenostjo so bile v primerjavi z abstinenti in zdravimi kontrolami statistično pomembno bolj izražene anksioznost (p < 0,001), depresivnost (p < 0,001) in agresivnost (p < 0,001). Zaključki. Obsesivno-kompulzivna simptomatika, anksioznost, depresivnost in agresivnost so lahko sopojavno vezane na zasvojenost od alkohola. Med zdravljenjem zasvojenosti od alkohola je zato treba pozornost usmeriti tudi na te simptome, saj tako lahko bistveno izboljšamo izid zdravljenja zasvojenosti od alkohola in zmanjšamo tveganje za relaps
Izhodišča. Večina raziskav s področja športnih poškodb se nanaša na specifične značilnosti, ki sprožijo, napovedujejo ali preprečujejo športne poškodbe. Raziskava preučuje možnost napovedovanja ...uspešnosti rehabilitacije na osnovi psiholoških značilnosti poškodovanih športnikov, in sicer spoprijemanja z bolečino, vedenja v procesu rehabilitacije (SIRBS), motivacije za rehabilitacijo, tesnobe kot stanja in socialne opore. Metode. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 68 športnikov po operaciji kolena zaradi resne poškodbe, definirane na osnovi izbranega sistema (1). Rehabilitacijski proces je trajal en mesec ali šest mesecev. Udeleženci so bili psihološko obravnavani pred procesom rehabilitacije in po njem. Rezultati. Rezultati so pokazali, da je uspešnost rehabilitacije večja, če se zmanjša anksioznost in poveča dojemljivost ter zaznata samoučinkovitost in katastrofiziranje. Le za 10 % športnikov lahko rečemo, da je bila pri njih rehabilitacija uspešna. Zaključki. Na osnovi raziskave lahko rečemo, da se konstruktivna vedenja, povezana z rehabilitacijo, povezujejo s psihološko rehabilitacijo poškodovanih športnikov.
The current study examined the association of attachment quality to parents to attachment styles and attachment style dimensions in a sample of high-school boys (N=103) and girls (N=181). Parental ...attachment quality was measured by the self-report Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA), whereas attachment styles and dimensions were measured by the self-report Experiences in Close Relationship Inventory - Short form (ECR-SF). The results of multi-group confirmatory factor analyses revealed that the three-factor model of the IPPA and the two-factor model of the ECR-SF were invariant across gender. Furthermore, the ECR-SF did not converge with specific parental attachment quality as assessed by the IPPA. With regard to different aspects of attachment quality, significant differences were only observed between securely and dismissively attached adolescents. It was found that adolescents who classified themselves as securely attached displayed a higher quality of communication and trust to both mother and father, and lower levels of alienation to mother than adolescents who classified themselves as dismissively attached. Furthermore, gender was a significant moderator for the relationship between dismissive and preoccupied attachment styles and father alienation. The findings indicated that the dismissively attached girls rated their father's alienation higher than the dismissively attached boys. By contrast, the boys with preoccupied attachment reported greater levels of alienation from father that did the girls with the same attachment style. PUBLICATION ABSTRACT
Objective. The majority of the literature regarding sports injuries is concentrated on specific characteristics related to sports injuries and injuries at sport activities at all. We strove to ...establish whether the success of the rehabilitation process can be predicted based on numerous psychosocial variables. Methods. Our sample comprised of 68 competing athletes who underwent an operative knee surgery. The rehabilitation process for athletes lasted one or 6 months; all athletes obtained serious injuries by the standards of National Athletic Injury Reporting System (1). The following variables were measured: coping with pain (SIP 15), rehabilitation behaviours (SIRBS), motivation for rehabilitation, anxiety (STAI X1) and social support. A questionnaire that measures the functioning of the knee (2000 IKDC) was taken as an indicator of the rehabilitation success. Participants were tested both prior to and following the process of rehabilitation. Results. Our results showed that the success of psychological rehabilitation could be predicted from changes in certain psychosocial variables (a decrease in anxiety and an increase in susceptibility, self-efficacy and catastrophizing). After the rehabilitation, only 10 % of athletes were able to reach the criteria of a successful physical and psychological rehabilitation. Conclusions. We can conclude that since selected psychological variables were found to have a high loading on psychological rehabilitation there it makes sense to control these variables.

Background. Alcohol addiction is a very common and complex disease. Alcohol addicted patients have a high risk for developing comorbid psychiatric disorder. Methods. In the present study, we explored ...symptom expression and severity for the most common comorbid mental disorders in Slovenian alcohol addicted patients. Three groups of male subjects were included: 101 acutely alcohol-addicted inpatients, 100 former alcohol-addicted subjects and 97 healthy controls from a blood donors group. The following questionnaires were employed: AUDIT, Zung Depression and Anxiety scale, Brief Social Phobia Scale, Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale and Obsessive Compulsive Drinking Scale, and Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory. Results. Acutely addicted patients showed significantly more obsessive (p<0.001) and compulsive (p<0.001) symptoms and also more obsessive-compulsive symptoms of relying on alcohol consumption (p<0.001) compared to the other two groups. Acutely addicted patients showed significantly more anxiety (p<0.001) as well as depressive (p<0.001) and aggressive (p<0.001) traits compared to the other two groups. Conclusions. Obsessive-compulsive, anxious, depressive and aggressive traits can be comorbidities associated with alcohol addiction. Increased attention to these symptoms during the treatment of alcohol addiction could result in better outcome of alcohol addiction treatment and lower relapse rate

Social anxiety often leads to various interpersonal problems. The purpose of this study was to examine the contribution of the need to hide the true self from others and of experiencing positive ...emotions in explaining the friendship quality of socially anxious students. The study was conducted with 630 students from three Croatian universities. The participants filled out the following questionnaires: General data questionnaire, Social Interaction Anxiety Scale, Social Phobia Scale, Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, The Core Extrusion Schema Measure and Friendship Quality Questionnaire. The results of hierarchical regression analysis, after controlling for gender and both types of social fears, indicate that the specific significant predictors of students' friendship quality are the need to hide the true self and the frequency of experiencing positive emotions. Gender is the consistent significant predictor, but does not moderate the relationship between social anxiety and friendship quality. The obtained results are useful in theoretical understanding of self-disclosure and the development of close relationships, and have practical implications that can be useful in therapy for socially anxious people who tend to use the strategy of hiding the true self. PUBLICATION ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to explore the relationship of test anxiety, positive and negative perfectionism and several measures of academic achievement. We also wanted to determine differences in ...levels of test anxiety between adaptive and non-adaptive perfectionists and non-perfectionists. 331 university students filled in the Test Anxiety Inventory (TAI; Spielberger, Gonzalez, Taylor, Algaze, & Anton, 1978), Positive and Negative Perfectionism Scale (PNPS; Terry-Short, Owens, Slade, & Dewey, 1995) and answered to some questions related to academic achievement (average grade, examination passing, self-satisfaction as a student) and grade importance. The results showed positive correlation between test anxiety and negative perfectionism, but no correlation between test anxiety and positive perfectionism. Positive perfectionism was positively related to grade importance and self-satisfaction as a student. Negative perfectionism was positively associated with grade importance, but negatively related to self-satisfaction as a student. A negative relationship was found between test anxiety and all tested measures of academic achievement, which may indicate adverse consequences of its occurrence on academic achievement. Furthermore, the results indicate that non-adaptive perfectionists had higher levels of test anxiety than adaptive perfectionists and non-perfectionists, while there was no such difference between these two groups.

Komunikacija je proces razmjene informacija između dionika, stoga ne iznenađuje činjenica da se život svakog pojedinca s vremenom mijenja pod utjecajem informacija. Informacije, kao dio našeg ...habitusa, omogućuju pojedincu da bude agilniji kako u svakodnevnom življenju tako i poslovnoj sferi. Jedna od značajnih utjecaja na proces primanja i procesuiranja informacija je pojava interneta. Cilj je ovoga rada prikazati da je upravo internet povećao dotok informacija koje osoba može apsorbirati i da kao takav utječe na promjene u društvu. Također, radom se ukazuje da se preopterećenje informacijama povećava na poslu i izvan posla, što se odražava i utječe na svakodnevnii život.Uslijed bujice informacija dolazi i do osjećaja informacijskog zamora koji predstavlja sindrom odnosno apatiju, ravnodušnost te mentalnu iscrpljenost koje proizlaze iz izloženosti prevelikoj količini informacija /1/. Ovim su radom na temelju istraživanja na prigodnom uzorku od 164 ispitanika potvrđene hipoteze da se informacijska tjeskoba razlikuje s obzirom na dob sudionika. Budući da internet zauzima sve značajniju ulogu među svojim korisnicima upućuje se na značajke uporabe. Kao eksplicitni pokazatelj je sinergija korištenja interneta i posjedovanje znanja u primjeni IKT-a.
Ciljevi rada bili su ispitati
učestalost negativnih zdravstvenih ponašanja (konzumiranje alkohola, cigareta i
kave) te ispitati povezanost između osobina ličnosti i tjelesne aktivnosti i izraženosti
...simptoma depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa. METODE: Korišteni su sljedeći
mjerni instrumenti: (a) upitnik općih podataka koji je sadržavao
sociodemografska obilježja te pitanja o životnim navikama (konzumiranje
alkohola i cigareta); (b) Skala depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa (DASS); (c)
Big Five upitnik osobina ličnosti (BFI); (d) Međunarodni upitnik o tjelesnoj
aktivnosti (IPAQ). REZULTATI: Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju kako značajno veći
broj studenata ne konzumira cigarete nego što ih konzumira (χ2=10,05, p<0,01), dok
najveći broj studenata alkohol konzumira rijetko ili vikendom (χ2=32,93,
p<0,001). Kod studenata koji ne konzumiraju alkohol utvrđena je granično
viša razina anksioznosti (t=1,63; p=0,053). Rezultati regresijske analize
ukazuju na statistički značajan učinak neuroticizma na izraženost simptoma
depresivnosti (B=2,52, p<0,001) i anksioznosti (B=3,09 p<0,001) kod
studenata. Osobina ličnosti otvorenost prema iskustvima doprinosi većem stresu
studenata (B=0,1, p<0,001). Sjedilački način života utječe na pojavu
anksioznosti (B=0,001, p<0,05). ZAKLJUČAK: Prema dobivenim rezultatima
možemo zaključiti da neuroticizam doprinosi pojavi simptoma anksioznosti i
depresivnosti, otvorenost prema iskustvima većem stresu, dok sjedilački način
života doprinosi višoj anksioznosti studenata.
AIMS: The aims of the study were to
examine the frequency of negative health behaviors (alcohol, cigarette and
coffee consumption) and to examine association between personality traits and
physical activity with the symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress. METHODS:
The following measures were used: (a) a general data questionnaire containing
sociodemographic characteristics and questions about unhealthy life habits
(alcohol and cigarette consumption); (b) Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale
(DASS); (c) Big Five Personality Trait Questionnaire (BFI); (d) International
Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). RESULTS: The results indicated a
significantly higher number of students who did not consume cigarettes (χ2=10.05,
p<0.01), while the largest number of students consumed alcohol infrequently
or on weekends (χ2=32.93, p<0.001). Marginally higher levels of anxiety were
found in students who did not consume alcohol (t=1.63; p=0.053). The results of
regression analysis indicated a statistically significant effect of neuroticism
on the intensity of depressive (B=2.52, p<0.001) and anxiety (B=3.09
p<0.001) symptoms in students. Openness to experiences contributed to higher
student stress levels (B=0.1, p<0.001). Sedentary lifestyle affects the
occurrence of anxiety (B=0.001, p<0.05). CONCLUSION: According to the
obtained results, we can conclude that neuroticism contributes to the appearance
of symptoms of anxiety and depression, openness to experiences to higher stress
levels, while a sedentary lifestyle contributes to higher anxiety of students.
