Cilj je ovoga istraživanja ispitati odnos između atribucija pretilosti i stavova prema pretilim osobama kod studenata medicine te ispitati moderira li učestalost i kvaliteta kontakta s pretilim osobama ranije navedeni odnos. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 360 studenata medicine, od toga 261 studentica i 96 studenata prosječne dobi od 21,88 (SD = 2,12) godina. Istraživanje je bilo online, a sudionici su ispunjavali pitanja vezana uz demografske podatke, skalu atribucija uzroka pretilosti, skalu stavova prema pretilim osobama, kao i pitanja o učestalosti i kvaliteti kontakta s pretilim osobama. Dobiveni rezultati pokazuju da je atribucija uzroka pretilosti unutarnjim faktorima povezana s negativnijim stavovima prema pretilim osobama. Učestaliji i kvalitetniji kontakti povezani su s pozitivnijim stavovima prema pretilim osobama. Nisu dobivene značajne interakcije između atribucija uzroka pretilosti i kontakta na stavove prema pretilim osobama. Dobiveni rezultati komentirani su u kontekstu efekata koje negativni stavovi studenata imaju na pretile osobe te važnosti kontakta kao sredstva za smanjenje tih negativnih stavova., The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the attributions of obesity and attitudes towards obese people in medical students and to examine whether the frequency and quality of contact with obese people moderates this relationship. The study involved 360 medical students, 261 female students and 96 male students, with an average age of 21.88 (SD = 2.12) years. The survey was online, and the participants filled out questions related to demographics, the causes of obesity scale, anti-fat attitudes scale, as well as questions about the frequency and quality of contact with obese people. The obtained results show that the attribution of the cause of obesity by internal factors is associated with more negative attitudes towards obese people. More frequent and high-quality contacts are associated with more positive attitudes towards obese people. No significant interactions were obtained between attributions of causes of obesity and contact on the attitudes towards obese people. The obtained results are commented in the context of the effects that students' negative attitudes have on obese people and the importance of contact in reducing these negative attitudes.

Partnerska prevara je sve češća među mladim odraslim osobama, osobito u zapadnjačkim kulturama gdje se pokazalo da ona može biti štetna za vezu i za dobrobit oba partnera. Stvarna ili percipirana prijetnja partnerskom prevarom može rezultirati negativnim posljedicama u vezi poput partnerskog nasilja (Whisman i sur., 1997). Prevara je široki pojam koji u sebi nosi različite oblike poput emocionalne, seksualne, kombinirane, a u novije vrijeme i online prevare. Istraživanja prevare se vrlo često usmjeravaju na ispitivanje kako stavovi i namjere prema počinjenju prevare utječu na samo ponašanje prevare. Uz to se ispituju i brojne druge varijable poput osobina ličnosti, zadovoljstva vezom pa i sociodemografske varijable dobi, spola, religioznosti i razine obrazovanja. Cilj ovoga rada bio je ispitati ulogu stava, percipirane ponašajne kontrole, subjektivnih normi, zadovoljstva vezom i osobina ličnosti na namjeru za počinjenjem prevare u romantičnim vezama te razlike u stavovima prema prevari, u namjeri za počinjenjem prevare i u samom ponašanju prevare s obzirom na spol, razinu obrazovanja i religioznost. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 359 ispitanika (238 žena i 121 muškarac), dok je raspon dobi ispitanika sezao od 18 do 74 godine (M =32.98, SD = 12.69). Rezultati su pokazali kako su stavovi prema prevari, percipirana ponašajna kontrola i subjektivne norme značajni prediktori namjere za počinjenjem prevare u romantičnim vezama. Uz to ispitane su i razlike u stavovima prema prevari i namjeri za počinjenjem prevare s obzirom na spol, razinu obrazovanja i religioznost te je dobiveno kako muškarci imaju pozitivnije stavove prema prevari i veću namjeru za počinjenjem prevare nego žene, nisko obrazovani pojedinci imaju pozitivnije stavove i veću namjeru za počinjenjem prevare nego visoko obrazovani, a manje religiozni pojedinci imaju pozitivnije stavove prema prevari, ali razlika u namjeri s obzirom na religioznost nije pronađena. Također u ovom istraživanju nije dobivena povezanost između zadovoljstva vezom i namjere za počinjenjem prevare te osobina ličnosti sa zadovoljstvom vezom i namjerom za počinjenjem prevare. Rezultati ovog istraživanja pružaju dokaze za teoriju planiranog ponašanja za specifično ponašanje prevare, spolnim razlikama koje se konzistentno pokazuju kroz istraživanja te da zadovoljstvo vezom nije povezano uz stavove prema prevari i namjeri za počinjenjem iste., Infidelity in romantic relationships is a common occurence in modern relationships, especially in western cultures where it has been shown that it can be harmful for the relationship and wellbeing of both partners. Real or percieved threat to partner infidelity can result in negative outcomes such as partner violence (Whisman et al., 1997). Infidelity is a wide term that can come in a variety of different forms such as emotional, sexual, combined, and nowadays even online infidelity. Infidelity research often focus on how attitudes and intention of committing infidelity can affect actual behavior of infidelity. Besides that, other variables are also being associated with infidelity, some of them being personality facets, relationship satisfaction and sociodemographic variables like age, gender, religiosity and education level. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of attitudes, perceived behavioural control, subjective norms, relationship satisfaction and personality facets on the intention to commit infidelity in romantic relationships, and differences in attitudes towards infidelity, intention to commit infidelity and the actual behaviour of infidelity regarding gender, education level and religiosity of respondents. There were total of 359 respondents in this study (238 women, and 121 men). The age of respondents ranged from 18 to 74 years old (M = 32.98, SD = 12.69). The results have shown that attitudes towards infidelity, percieved behavioural control and subjective norms were all significant predictors of intention to commit infidelity in romantic relationships. Differences in attitudes towards infidelity, and intention to commit infidelity regarding gender, education level and religiosity were also examined where the results have shown that men have more positive attitudes towards infidelity and higher intention to involve in infidelity behaviours than women. Additionally, people with lower education level have had more positive attitudes towards infidelity and higher intention to commit infidelity behaviours than people with higher education level, but no differences were found in intention to commit infidelity regarding religiosity. No significant correlation between relationship satisfaction and intention to commit infidelity, or between relationship and intention to commit infidelity was found. The results of this study give evidence for the theory of planned behaviour regarding the specific behaviour of infidelity, gender differences that have consistently been shown in similar research, and the result that relationship satisfaction is in fact not in correlation with the intention to commit infidelity in romantic relationships. Contribution of personality facets in explaining intention to commit infidelity could not have been examined in this study, which supports inconsistency of research in this field.

Način na koji nam je određeni problem predstavljen značajno utječe na naše stavove i proces odlučivanja. Budući da smo konstantno izloženi masovnim medijima, moguće je da ćemo biti mete propagande. Različitim prezentiranjem društvenih i inih pitanja mediji mogu oblikovati javno mnijenje putem različitih propagandnih tehnika. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati utjecaj efekta oblikovanja, odnosno promjene naslova i ključnih riječi u novinskim člancima na stavove ispitanika prema migrantima u kontekstu europske migrantske krize. U istraživanju su sudjelovala 102 učenika četvrtih razreda Gimnazije Karlovac, 78 ženskog i 24 muškog spola. Dobiveni rezultati pokazuju da su ispitanici koji su izloženi pozitivno oblikovanom članku u drugom mjerenju imali pozitivnije stavove prema migrantima, a ispitanici koji su izloženi negativno oblikovanom članku u drugom mjerenju imali negativnije stavove prema migrantima. Također, desničarsko autoritarniji ispitanici imali su negativnije stavove prema migrantima. Takvi nalazi upućuju na važnost djelovanja medija i nedovoljne kritičnosti javnosti prema tome. Neki od faktora koji su uzrokovali promjene u stavovima mogu biti percepcija prijetnje, utjecaj na emocije, moralna kategorizacija, socijalna poželjnost i prethodna izloženost sličnom sadržaju., The way in which a certain issue is presented to us heavily affects the way we think and make decisions. Since we are constantly surrounded by mass media, we may become victims of propaganda. The media can present social issues in different ways and therefore shape public opinion with different propagandist techniques. The aim of this research was to examine the framing effect, i.e. how changes of headlines and key words in newspaper articles affect examinee’s attitudes towards migrants in the context of European migrant crisis. High school seniors, more precisely 102 students from Gimnazija Karlovac, 78 female and 24 male, took part in this research. The results show that the examinees who read a positively framed article showed more positive attitudes towards migrants in the second examination and the examinees who read a negatively framed article showed more negative attitudes towards migrants. Also, examinees who scored higher on right-wing authoritarianism showed more negative attitudes towards migrants. These results indicate the importance of media influence and a lack of public criticism towards the media. Possible factors that caused changes in attitudes were the perception of threat, targeting the emotions, moral categorization, social desirability and previous subjugation to the presentation of similar content.

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati razlike u stavovima prema IKT-u i upotrebi tablet računala u nastavi, u percipiranoj vrijednosti škole, ciljnim orijentacijama, školskom uspjehu izadovoljstvu nastavom, između učenika ovisno o korištenju iPad-a u nastavi, kao i to imaju li stavovi prema IKT-u i tabletu u nastavi, ciljne orijentacije te percipirana vrijednost škole efektna zadovoljstvo nastavom i školski uspjeh učenika, s obzirom na korištenje iPad-a u nastavi.U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 177 ispitanika od petog do osmog razreda Osnovne škole Vežica u Rijeci, a provedeno je u sklopu projekta Psihologijski aspekti korištenja informacijskokomunikacijskih tehnologija u osnovnoškolskom obrazovanju. Rezultati istraživanja su indicirali da su pozitivni stavovi prema korištenju tableta nanastavi izraženiji na početku prvog polugodišta nego na kraju drugog, dok su obrnuti rezultati dobiveni za negativne aspekte korištenja IKT-a. Pozitivni stavovi prema korištenju tablet računala u nastavi su istaknutiji kod učenika koji iPad koriste od nedavno, dok su najmanje izraženi kod onih koji ih ne koriste. Slično, ustanovljeno je da učenici koji koriste iPad u nastavi dulje vrijeme percipiraju više pozitivnih aspekata korištenja IKT-a, od onih koji ga nekoriste. Učenici koji su nedavno počeli koristiti iPad u nastavi imaju veću percipiranu vrijednost škole i ciljnu orijentaciju učenje približavanjem od ostale dvije grupe učenika. Najveće zadovoljstvo nastavom imaju učenici koji su nedavno započeli koristiti iPad, a najmanje oni koji ga ne koriste. Kod učenika koji dulje vrijeme koriste iPad u nastavi, oni koji percipiraju više negativnih aspekata korištenja IKT-a i imaju izraženiji pozitivni stav prema tablet računalima imaju veće opće zadovoljstvo nastavom. Kod učenika koji ne koriste iPad u nastavi, opće zadovoljstvo nastavom im je veće ako su imali manje izražene ciljne orijentacije izbjegavanje rada, učenje izbjegavanjem, izraženije pozitivne stavove prema korištenju tablet računala u nastavi te ako su percipirali više negativnih aspekata korištenja IKT-a., The aim of this study was to examine differences in attitudes towards ICT and the useof tablet computers in the classroom, in the perceived value of school, goal orientations,school achievement and satisfaction with teaching, between students, depending on their useof the iPad in the classroom, as well as to examine does the attitudes towards ICT and the useof tablet computer in the classroom, goal orientations and perceived value of school haveeffect on the satisfaction of teaching and students' academic achievement, considering theiruse of the iPad in the classroom.The study included 177 students from fifth to eighth grade from Elementary schoolVežica in Rijeka, and it was conducted as part of the project Psychological aspects of the useof Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in primary education.The results indicated that the positive attitudes towards using tablet computer in theclassroom are more pronounced at the beginning of the first semester, than at the end of thesecond, while the reverse results were obtained for the negative aspects towards the ICT.Positive attitudes towards using tablet computers in the classroom are more prominent instudents who used them for a shorter time, while they are pronounced at least in students whodo not use them.Similarly, it was found that students who are using iPad in the classroom for a longertime perceived more positive aspects of the use of ICT, than those who do not use it.Students who have recently begun to use the iPad in the classroom have a higher perceivedvalue of school and mastery-approach goal orientation, than the other two groups of students.The greatest satisfaction with teaching had those students who have recently started to use theiPad, and at least those who do not use it.For students who are using an iPad in the classroom for a longer time, those whoperceive more negative aspects towards the use of ICT and have more positive attitudetowards the iPad, have higher general satisfaction with teaching. Students who do not use an iPad in the classroom, had the greater general satisfactionwith teaching if they had a less prominent goal orientations work avoidance, masteryavoidance goal orientation, and the more prominent positive attitudes towards the use of tabletcomputerss in the classroom, and if they perceived more negative aspects of the use of ICT.
