The influence of differences among generations X, Y and Z in the choice of ways to resolve conflicts in organizations
No full textSvrha ovog rada je da pruži informacije o upravljanju sukobima u organizaciji s obzirom na generacije zaposlenika koji tamo rade. Na tržištu rada trenutno se nalaze četiri generacije koje pokušavaju zajedno raditi kao tim. Na svaku generaciju utjecali su različiti događaji kroz povijest, ali i različita okolina u kojoj odrastaju. Upravo iz tog razloga svaka generacija ima svoje karakteristike. Različitost generacija važno je za menadžere prepoznati i pozitivno ih iskoristiti. U ovom radu fokus se stavlja na različitosti generacija kada se nađu u sukobu u organizaciji. Za potrebe rada provedeno je empirijsko istraživanje u kojem je sudjelovalo 308 ispitanika različitih životnih dobi. Cilj je bio utvrditi postoji li razlika među generacijama kod percepcije sukoba, vrste sukoba i načina rješavanja sukoba. Sve tri generacije suglasne su kako je najbolji način rješavanja sukoba pronalazak kompromisa te kako oni najčešće u sukobima nastoje mirno iznijeti svoje mišljenje. Percepcija sukoba je kod generacije X i Y gotovo pa ista, razlika je vidljiva kod generacije Z. Kao najčešći sukob većina ispitanika navela je kognitivne sukobe.The purpose of this master's is to provide information on conflict management in an organization with regard to the generations of employees who work there. There are currently four generations on the labor market trying to work together as a team. Each generation was influenced by different events throughout history, but also by the different environment in which they grow up. It is precisely for this reason that each generation has its own characteristics. The diversity of generations is important for managers to recognize and use positively. In this paper, the focus is on the differences between generations when they find themselves in conflict in the organization. For the purposes of this master's, an empirical research was conducted in which 308 respondents of different ages participated. The goal was to determine if there is a difference between generations in the perception of conflict, the type of conflict and the way to resolve the conflict. All three generations agree that the best way to resolve conflicts is to find a compromise and that they usually try to express their opinion calmly in conflicts. The perception of conflict is almost the same among generations X and Y, the difference is visible among generation Z. The majority of respondents cited cognitive conflicts as the most common conflict
Test anxiety, maladaptive perfectionism and self-esteem in students
No full textBrojna istraživanja provedena na populaciji studenata, odnosno mladih, ukazuju na značajan porast psiholoških tegoba poput ispitne anksioznosti, ali i perfekcionizma te sniženog samopoštovanja. Ovakve tegobe ostavljaju značajne posljedice na psihološko i socijalno funkcioniranje pojedinca, kao i na akademski uspjeh. Ispitna anksioznost je pojam koji predstavlja psihološko stanje pretjerane uzrujanosti, odnosno tjeskobe, koje se javlja u ispitnim situacijama. Pojam ispitne anksioznosti istraživači često dovode u vezu s razinama samopoštovanja i perfekcionizmom. Samopoštovanje može se definirati kao uvjerenje pojedinca koje ima o svojim sposobnostima i vrijednostima, dok se perfekcionizam može objasniti kao težnja za savršenom izvedbom i nepogrešivošću u svim domenama života. Ovo istraživanje bavilo se posebnom vrstom perfekcionizma nazvanom neadaptivni perfekcionizam, koju karakterizira izrazite perfekcionističke težnje i negativna perfekcionistička zabrinutost, odnosno usmjerenost na pogreške i samokritičnost. Prilikom ispitivanja ispitne anksioznosti, perfekcionizma i samopoštovanja, istraživači su utvrdili postojanje spolnih razlika. Naime, istraživači vjeruju kako žene doživljavaju veće razine ispitne anksioznosti i neadaptivnog perfekcionizma te pokazuju manje razine samopoštovanja od muškaraca. U provedenom istraživanju cilj je bio ispitati odnos ispitne anksioznosti, neadaptivnog perfekcionizma i samopoštovanja kod studenata te utvrditi postojanje spolnih razlika u navedenim konstruktima. U istraživanju je korišten prigodni uzorak studenata Republike Hrvatske (152 sudionica ženskog spola, a 44 sudionika muškog spola) online putem. Utvrđena je statistički značajna mala povezanost između ispitne anksioznosti i samopoštovanja, dok je dok je neadaptivni perfekcionizam bio pozitivno umjereno povezan s ispitnom anksioznošću, odnosno negativno umjereno povezan sa samopoštovanjem kod oba spola. Osim toga utvrđene su statistički značajne razlike u tim konstruktima s obzirom na spol. Odnosno, studentice su u prosjeku imale niže samopoštovanje, viši neadaptivni perfekcionizam i višu ispitnu anksioznost od studenata.Numerous studies conducted on the population of students, i.e. young people, indicate a significant increase in psychological problems such as test anxiety, but also perfectionism and lowered self-esteem. Such ailments have significant consequences on the psychological and social functioning of the individual, as well as on academic success. Test anxiety is a term that represents a psychological state of excessive excitement, which occurs in test situations. Exam anxiety is often linked to lowered self-esteem, and maladaptive perfectionism. Self-esteem is often described as individual's belief about his abilities and values, while perfectionism can be explained as the pursuit of perfect performance in all domains of life. This research examined a special type of perfectionism – maladaptive perfectionism, which is characterized by strong perfectionistic aspirations and negative perfectionistic concern. In general, it is commonly believed among researchers that women tend to experience higher levels of test anxiety and maladaptive perfectionism while displaying lower levels of self-esteem compared to men. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between test anxiety, maladaptive perfectionism, and self-esteem among students and to ascertain whether gender disparities exist within these aspects. The study was conducted with a convenient sample of students hailing from the Republic of Croatia, with 152 female participants and 44 male participants participating via online platforms. The research revealed a significant correlation between test anxiety, negative perfectionism, and self-esteem, as well as disparities in these aspects based on gender. On average, female students had lower self-esteem, higher maladaptive perfectionism and higher test anxiety than male students
Distribution of macro-crustaceans (Crustacea: Malacostraca) in the Gacka River basin
No full textIstraživanje rasprostranjenosti viših rakova iz redova Amphipoda (rakušci) i Isopoda (jednakonožni rakovi) provedeno je duž toka rijeke Gacke i u njenim pritocima. Uzorci su prikupljeni u lipnju 2020. g. pomoću ručne bentos mreže na ukupno 14 postaja (Gacka-9, pritoci-5 postaja). U glavnim izvorima, Tonković i Majerovo vrilo, i u gornjim dijelovima toka Gacke dominirale su vrste Synurella ambulans i Asellus aquaticus. Rakušac Gammarus balcanicus je veće gustoće imao na srednjim i donjim dijelovima toka, te u pritocima, a uopće nije pronađen na izvoru Majerovo vrilo i još jednoj postaji nizvodno od ovog izvora. Ovakav obrazac rasprostranjenosti i gustoće tri istraživane vrste zabilježen je samo u rijeci Gackoj. U svim drugim krškim rijekama u Hrvatskoj je G. balcanicus dominantna vrsta s najvećim gustoćama u izvorima i gornjim dijelovima toka rijeka. Pretpostavlja se da je to posljedica nekadašnjeg presušivanja i potencijalnog onečišćenja izvora i gornjih dijelova toka rijeke Gacke.The study of the distribution of macro-crustaceans from the orders Amphipoda and Isopoda was conducted along the course of the Gacka River and its tributaries. Samples were collected in June 2020 using a benthic net at a total of 14 sites (Gacka-9, tributaries-5 sites). In the main springs, Tonković and Majerovo vrilo, and in the upper parts of the Gacka River, the amphipod Synurella ambulans and isopod Asellus aquaticus were dominant species. The amphipod Gammarus balcanicus had higher densities in the middle and lower parts of the river, as well as in the tributaries, and was not found at the source of Majerovo vrilo and another station downstream from this source. This distribution pattern and density of the three investigated species were unique to the Gacka River. In all other karst rivers in Croatia, G. balcanicus is the dominant species with the highest densities in the springs and upper parts of the river. It is assumed that this is a result of past drying up and potential pollution of the source and upper parts of the Gacka River
Identitet u TV seriji ‘Superstore’
No full textThis thesis deals with the analysis of the construction of identity of two selected characters of the American sitcom ‘Superstore’. The aim is to analyze the factors that contribute to identity formation in a multi-cultural workplace. The theoretical part provides previous research done on the topic of identity with an emphasis on the intersectional approach which is used to analyze crossing of racial, gender, and class aspects of identity. The practical part refers to the examples from the show that provide support for the theoretical claims about formation of identity as well as examples of retail workers’ struggles and the instances of cultural appropriation and racial stereotyping among multi-cultural charactersOvaj završni rad bavi se analizom formiranja identiteta na primjeru dvoje odabranih likova iz Američke komedije situacije ‘Superstore’. Cilj ovog rada jest analizirati faktore koji doprinose formiranju identiteta na multikulturalnom random mjestu. Teorijski dio sadrži pregled prijašnjih istraživanja na temu identiteta s naglaskom na intersekcionalni pristup koji je korišten pri analizi preklapajućih rasnih, rodnih i klasnih aspekata identiteta. Praktični dio odnosi se na primjere iz serije koji podupiru teorijske tvrdnje o formiranju identiteta, poteškoće s kojima se susreću trgovački radnici te primjeri kulturološke aproprijacije među multikulturalnim likovima
Ocular rosacea
No full textPredmet je završnog rada okularna rozaceja. Cilj je rada analizirati okularnu rozaceju kao jedan od tipova rozaceje, bolesti s razdobljima remisije i relapsa koja se prvenstveno javlja na središnjem dijelu lica kod osoba svjetlije puti u dobi između 30. i 50. godine života. Etiopatofiziologija bolesti nije u cijelosti objašnjena, ali na razvoj bolesti utječe više čimbenika: genetski, imunološki sustav, neuroimune i neurovaskularne disregulacije, mikroorganizmi i ultraljubičasto zračenje. Okularni simptomi obuhvaćaju promjene na vjeđama, kronični konjunktivitis i zahvaćenost rožnice. Međutim, simptomi okularne rozaceje često su nespecifični i suptilni, pa okularna rozaceja često ostaje nedijagnosticirana. Simptomi okularne rozaceje su osjećaj stranog tijela, pečenja ili žarenja, suhoća, svrbež, osjetljivost na svijetlo, zamagljen vid, a klinički se vide interpalpebralna hiperemija konjunktive, i periokularni eritem vjeđe i ruba vjeđe. Terapija uključuje topičku i sistemsku terapiju. Okularna rozaceja može negativno utjecati na kvalitetu života i cilj liječenja je eliminacija svih simptoma.The subject of this paper is ocular rosacea. The aim of the paper is to analyze ocular rosacea as one of the types of rosacea, a skin disease with periods of remission and relapse that primarily occurs on the central part of the face in lighter-skinned people between the ages of 30 and 50. The etiopathophysiology of the disease is not fully explained, but the development of the disease is influenced by several symptoms: genetic factors, immune system, neuroimmune and neurovascular dysregulations, microorganisms and ultraviolet radiation. Ocular symptoms include eyelid changes, chronic conjunctivitis, and corneal involvement. However, the symptoms of ocular rosacea are often non-specific and subtle, so ocular rosacea often goes undiagnosed. Symptoms of ocular rosacea are foreign body sensation, burning or burning, dryness, itching, sensitivity to light, blurred vision, and clinically interpalpebral hyperemia of the conjunctiva, and periocular erythema of the eyelid and the edge of the eyelid are seen. Therapy includes topical and systemic therapy. Ocular rosacea can negatively affect the quality of life and the goal of treatment is the elimination of all symptoms
The impact of birth weight, gender and litter size on early growth of lambs of Lika Pramenka sheep in extensive production system
No full textLička pramenka je izvorna hrvatska pasmina ovaca koja se uzgaja u Lici i Gorskom kotaru. Prilagođena je klimi ličkog kraja koju karakteriziraju hladne i snježne zime te suha i vruća ljeta. Najčešće se uzgaja u ekstenzivnim i poluintenzivnim sustavima proizvodnje. Pripada skupini ovaca kombiniranih svojstava, no ponajprije se uzgaja za proizvodnju mesa (ličke janjetine). Zbog svoje prepoznatljivosti, lička janjetina se tradicionalno konzumira u Lici, ali i u ostatku Hrvatske. Ovim završnim radom provedeno je istraživanje na OPG-u Kučan čije osnovno stado broji 769 ovaca namijenjenih proizvodnji janjetine. Istraživanje je provedeno na 60 janjadi (30 muških i 30 ženskih). Eksperimentalna janjad je svo razdoblje trajanja pokusa uz majčino mlijeko konzumirala samo ispašu na krškim pašnjacima. Vaganje odabrane janjadi provedeno je 0., 30., 60. i 90. dana nakon partusa. Istraživanje je provedeno s ciljem utvrđivanja utjecaja porodne mase, spola i veličine legla na prosječne dnevne priraste janjadi. Prosječna porodna masa janjadi je bila 4.18 kg, a janjad je mjesečno je priraštala u prosjeku ~ 6 kg, odnosno 0.2 kg dnevno. Inferencijalnom statističkom analizom utvrđen je statistički značajan utjecaj spola (P<0.01) i veličine legla na porodnu masu (P<0.001). Utjecaj spola nije bio značajan na prosječne dnevne priraste u niti jednoj fazi uzgoja janjadi, dok je utjecaj veličine legla bio statistički značajan u prva dva mjeseca (P0_30<0.05, P30_60<0.01), a posljedično tome i u ukupnom promatranom razdoblju (P0_90<0.05).The Lika Pramenka sheep is an indigenous Croatian breed of sheep that is bred in Lika and Gorski Kotar. It is adapted to the climate of the Lika region, which is characterized by cold and snowy winters and dry and hot summers. It is dominantly reared in extensive and semi-intensive production systems. It belongs to the category of multi-purpose sheep breeds, but it is primarily reared for meat production, the Lika lamb meat which is traditionally consumed in Lika, but due to its’ good reputation among consumers, it is also popular in the other parts of Croatia. This study was conducted at homestead Kučan, in the flock that counts 769 sheep in total, all reared for purpose of lamb meat production. All experimental lambs, in addition to mothers’ milk, only grazed on karst pastures with no other nutritional supplements. The research was conducted on 60 lambs of equal frequency of males and females. The selected lambs were weighed on the 0th, 30th, 60th and 90th day after parturition. The research was conducted with the aim of determining the influence of birth weight, gender and litter size on average daily gain of lambs. The lamb weighed 4.18 kg on average, and gained ~6 kg per month, or 0.2 kg per day. The inferential statistical analysis revealed a statistically significant impact of gender (P<0.01) and litter size (P<0.001) on birth weight. The impact of gender was not significant on average daily gains in any of the examined periods, while the impact of litter size was statistically significant in the first two months (P0_30<0.05, P30_60<0.01), and consequently, in the total observed period (P0_90<0.05
Benefits of puppet shows for children of early and preschool age
No full textOvaj diplomski rad čitatelju nastoji približiti vrijednost scenske lutke. Sastoji se od dva dijela. U prvom, teorijskom dijelu, opisani su tipovi scenskih lutki koje se najčešće upotrebljavaju u dječjim vrtićima, pravila za pisanje tekstova za lutkarske predstave, važne stavke na koje treba obratiti pozornost prilikom postavljanja svjetla, zvuka i scenografije za predstavu te izrade kostima. Opisuje se i važnost igre za dijete, njegova povezanost s lutkom i njen utjecaj na dijete. U zadnjem poglavlju u teorijskom dijelu govori se o odnosu odgojitelja prema lutkama. Drugi dio rada je praktični, odnosno istraživački. Prikazuju se rezultati istraživanja provedenih u trima vrtićima. Glavni cilj istraživanja bio je ispitivanje dobrobiti koje djeca dobiju putem lutkarske predstave, a ostali ciljevi bili su: kako djeca gledaju na potres nakon odmaka od dvije godine, sjećaju li ga se i kako su se osjećali u periodu podrhtavanja tla.This master's thesis tries to bring the value of the puppets to the reader. It is divided into two parts. In the first one, the theoretical part, the types of the puppets that are most used in the kindergartens, rules for writing texts for the puppet shows, important points that we should paid attention to when setting up light, sound and scenography for performances and making costumes, are described. The importance of play for the child, his connection with the puppet and its influence on the child are also described. In the last chapter, in the theoretical part, we talk about the teacher's relationship with the puppets. The second part of the thesis is practical, that is, research. The results of research conducted in three kindergartens are presented. The main goal of the research was to examine the benefits that children get through a puppet show, and the other goals were: how children look at the earthquake after a gap of two years it had happened, whether they remember it and how they felt during the period of the earthquake itself
Terminological analysis of medical vocabulary (micro domain: the nervous system)
No full textL’objectif de ce mémoire de maîtrise est de montrer la complexité du travail des terminologues et leur importance dans le domaine de la traduction. Lorsqu’il s’agit de traduction des textes spécialisés (comme le texte médical utilisé dans ce travail), une analyse terminologique doit être effectuée afin que tous les termes soient correctement traduits. Un traducteur n’est pas en mesure d’effectuer à lui seul l’analyse et la traduction, car il dispose rarement du temps nécessaire pour mener à bien ces deux tâches. C’est là que les terminologues jouent un rôle important. Ils sont engagés pour effectuer l’analyse du domaine spécialisé, et donc pour trouver les équivalents de qualité aux termes utilisés. Dans ce mémoire de maîtrise nous avons procédé à une analyse terminologique des termes du vocabulaire de la médecine, plus précisement le vocabulaire du système nerveux. Nous nous sommes fortement concentrés sur les collocations de nos termes clés qui nous ont permis de préciser leur usage dans les contextes différents. Dans ce mémoire nous avons également inclus un glossaire bilingue des collocations, ainsi que la traduction d’un texte spécialisé. Ce mémoire prouve l’importance d’aider les traducteurs à faire leur travail de manière plus rapide et plus efficace.Svrha ovog rada je prikazati složenost posla koji obavljaju terminolozi i njihov značaj u području prevođenja. Kada je riječ o prijevodu stručnih tekstova (primjerice medicinski tekst korišten u ovom radu), potrebno je provesti terminološku analizu kako bi svi pojmovi bili ispravno prevedeni. Prevoditelj nije u mogućnosti sam izvršiti i analizu i prijevod jer rijetko ima dovoljno vremena za obavljanje oba zadatka. Nadalje, taj važan posao preuzimaju terminolozi. Angažirani su kako bi izvršili analizu stručne domene, a samim time i pronađu kvalitetne ekvivalente za korištene pojmove. U ovom je radu provedena terminološka analiza ponavljajućih pojmova, a također uključuje i dvojezični glosar kolokacija, kao i prijevod stručnog teksta. Ovaj diplomski rad dokazuje važnost pomoći prevoditeljima kako bi brže i učinkovitije obavljali svoj posao.The purpose of this thesis is to portray the complexity of the work executed by terminologists and of their importance in the field of translation. When it comes to the translation of specialized texts (such as the medical text used in this work), a terminological analysis must be conducted in order for all of the terms to be correctly translated. A translator, on his own, is not capable to conduct both the analysis and the translation since there is rarely enough time to do both tasks. Furthermore, that's where terminologists play an important role. They are hired to do the analysis of the specialized domain, and therefore to find a quality replacement for the terms used. In this work, a terminological analysis of the recurrent terms was conducted, it also includes a bilingual glossary of collocations, as well as the translation of a specialized text. This work proves the importance of helping translators to do their job in a quicker and more efficient wa
Well-being of mothers of minor children with physical and/or sensory disabilities - The role of support from family, friends, and associations
No full textUloga majke djeteta s invaliditetom okarakterizirana je, u većini slučajeva, brojnim stresorima, obavezama i izazovima. Uz formalnu podršku, od neprocjenjive važnosti za dobrobit majki jest neformalna podrška. U provedenom istraživanju, cilj je bio steći dublji uvid u percipiranu podršku majki maloljetne djece s tjelesnim i/ili osjetilnim invaliditetom od strane članova obitelji, prijatelja i udruga. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 12 majki djece s primarno tjelesnim i/ili osjetilnim, težim ili teškim invaliditetom s područja Republike Hrvatske. Četiri od ukupno 12 sudionica su članice udruga roditelja djece s teškoćama u razvoju. Podaci su prikupljeni polustrukturiranim intervjuom, nakon čega je uslijedila verbalna transkripcija. Provedbom tematske analize, uočeno je da se prikupljeni podaci mogu predstaviti kroz više tematskih cjelina, ali za ovaj rad su izdvojene tri koje se fokusiraju na neformalnu podršku: Percepcija podrške od strane članova obitelji i prijatelja, Percepcija udruga roditelja djece s invaliditetom i volontera te Sugestije majki za poboljšanje neformalne podrške. Svaka tematska cjelina detaljnije je prikazana kroz adekvatne teme, popraćene citatima. Istaknuti su najvažniji izvori i oblici neformalne podrške. Također, uočen je pozitivan doprinos različitih aktivnosti udruga i volontera. U provedenom istraživanju majke su dobile priliku progovoriti o ugodnim i neugodnim iskustvima u pogledu podrške te popratnim osjećajima, a sam rad bi mogao doprinijeti širenju svijesti o iznimnoj važnosti neformalne podrške, ali i inspiraciji potencijalnih projekata u svrhu osvještavanja javnosti te pružanja podrške koja nije obvezana Zakonom.The role of a mother to a child with a disability is characterized, in most cases, by numerous stressors, obligations, and challenges. In addition to formal support, informal support is invaluable for the well-being of mothers. In the conducted research, the aim was to gain a deeper insight into the perceived support of mothers of minor children with physical or sensory disabilities by family members, friends, and associations. 12 mothers of children with primarily physical or sensory or severe disabilities from the territory of the Republic of Croatia participated in the research. Four of the 12 participants are members of associations of parents of children with developmental disabilities. Data were collected through a semi-structured interview, followed by verbal transcription. By conducting a thematic analysis, it was observed that the collected data can be presented through several thematic units, but for this paper, three were singled out that focus on informal support: Perception of support from family members and friends, Perception of associations of parents of children with disabilities and volunteers, and Suggestions of mothers for the improvement of informal support. Each thematic unit is presented in more detail through adequate topics, accompanied by quotes. The most important sources and forms of informal support are highlighted. Also, a positive contribution of various activities of associations and volunteers was observed. In the conducted research, mothers were given the opportunity to talk about pleasant and unpleasant experiences with support and accompanying feelings, and the work itself could contribute to spreading awareness of the exceptional importance of informal support, but also to the inspiration of potential projects for the purpose of raising public awareness and providing support that is not required by law
Connection Between Parenthood and Religion Among Croatian University Students
No full textOvaj diplomski rad istražuje povezanost stavova o roditeljstvu i vjeroispovijesti kod studenata Hrvatskih sveučilišta. Cilj rada bio je utvrditi postojanje povezanosti između stavova studenata o roditeljstvu i njihovih stavova o vjeroispovijesti. Unutar ovog konteksta fokus se stavljao na stavove studenata o vlastitom potencijalnom roditeljstvu, na vjeroispovijest studenata, na postojanje povezanosti između vjeroispovijesti i želje za roditeljstvom te na mišljenja studenata o mogućim prednostima, kao i nedostatcima roditeljstva. Prvo, važno je objasniti pojam roditeljstva, promjene koje ono donosi u život pojedinaca, kao i promjene koje se događaju u budućim majkama i očevima. Nadalje, majke i očevi različito doživljavaju ulogu roditelja te se samim time njihovo ispunjavanje te uloge razlikuje. Svaki roditelj ima svoj prilagođeni odgojni stil koji razvija kroz život i kojim se trudi ispuniti potrebe svoje obitelji. Naravno, uz roditeljstvo dolaze brojni čimbenici koji utječu na njega, od kojih neki dovode do odgađanja postajanja roditeljem. Također, primijećeno je kako pripadanje određenoj vjeroispovijesti može pozitivno utjecati na obiteljski život. Kako bi se što bolje obuhvatili stavovi studenata ispitivanje se provodilo kroz anonimno anketiranje gdje se koristio upitnik s pitanjima zatvorenog tipa. Ovakvim upitnikom olakšalo se prikupljanje stavova i mišljenja studenata koji su sudjelovali u istraživanju. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako većina sudionika želi postati roditeljem te kako sudionici koji se izražavaju kao članovi određene vjerske skupine imaju veću želju postati roditeljima od ispitanika koji nisu vjernici. Ovime zaključujemo kako postoji povezanost između stavova koje studenti imaju prema roditeljstvu i stavova koje imaju prema vjeroispovijesti.The aim of this thesis is to discover connection between parenthood and religion among Croatian university students. The goal of the thesis was to determine a possible connection between students’ attitudes towards parenthood and their attitudes towards religion. In this context the focus was aimed at students’ attitudes regarding personal potential parenthood, on students’ religious beliefs, on the existing connection between religion and the desire for parenthood and on the ideas students had regarding potential advantages and disadvantages in parenthood. For starters, it is important to define parenthood, changes it brings into the life of an individual, as well as changes that happen to future mothers and fathers. Furthermore, mothers and fathers differently perceive parenting roles, which is the reason why they act differently as parents. Every parent has a personalised educational system which they develop through life and through which they try to fulfil their family’s needs. Of course, there are many factors that affect parenthood, some of which might lead to postponed parenthood. Also, it has been noticed that belonging to a specific religion can be beneficial to family life. In interest of retaining students’ attitudes as best as possible, research was done through anonymous pooling where we used a questionnaire with closed type questions. This type of a questionnaire made it easier to collect attitudes and thoughts from students that took part in the research. Results of the research showed that many participants have a desire to become parents one day, and that those who stated they belonged to a certain religion had higher results of wanting to become parents than participants who did not belong to a religion. Through these results we can conclude there is a connection between attitudes students have towards parenthood and attitudes they have towards religion
