Oral Lyrical poems From Imotski region
No full textCilj ovog završnog rada je prikupiti klasificirati i predstaviti usmene lirske pjesme na području Imotske krajine. Na samom početku rada opisuje se kakva je uloga stvaralačke moći čovjeka u sklopu usmene književnosti. Kao stvaralac, čovjekovo povezivanje u različite strukture daje drugačiji smisao nego što je to u svakodnevici. Kao takva, literarizirana usmenost prenosi sadržaje proistekle iz običaja, a ti su sadržaji građeni po određenim pravilima. Donosi se i kratak osvrt na povijest hrvatske usmene književnosti krenuvši od one bespismene faze pa sve do pojave pouzdanih pisanih izvora. U radu se navode i obilježja lirskih usmenih pjesama uz naglasak na emocionalnost i duhovnost. S obzirom na to da usmenoknjiževna lirika poznaje jako velik broj stihova, u jednom od poglavlja, pažnja se posvećuje i stihovnoj organizaciji. Općenitosti Imotske krajine iznose se na način da se upozna „karakter“ krajine te se zatim preko klasifikacijskog modela obrađuju pojedine pjesme. Ovisno o dostupnim primjerima, pjesme su tako i obrađivane. Najveći broj zauzimaju pjesme ljubavnog karaktera, a za daljnje istraživanje vremena naših „starih“, ljubav je jedino što treba.The goal of this final work is to collect, classify and present oral lyric poems in the area of Imotski region. At the very beginning of the work, the role of the creative power of man in oral literature is described. As a creator, man's connection in different structures gives a different meaning than it does in everyday life. As such, literarized orality conveys contents derived from customs, and these contents are built according to certain rules. A brief overview of the history of Croatian oral literature is also provided, starting from the illiterate phase until the appearance of reliable written sources. The paper also mentions the characteristics of lyrical oral songs with an emphasis on emotionality and spirituality. Considering the fact that oral poetry has a very large number of verses, in one of the chapters, attention is paid to verse organization. The generalities of the Imotski region are presented in such a way as to get to know the "character" of the region, and then individual songs are processed using the classification model. Depending on the available examples, the songs were treated that way. The largest number is occupied by songs of a love character, and for further research into the times of our "old people", love is the only thing needed
Experiences of educators on the readiness of children included in the preschool Montessori program to enter the regular elementary school system
No full textU diplomskom radu izneseni su rezultati kvalitativnog istraživanja na temu pripremljenosti djece uključene u predškolski Montessori program za ulazak u redovni sustav osnovne škole. Uzorak istraživanja čine odgojiteljice Montessori vrtića na području Republike Hrvatske. U radu su korištene dvije metode istraživanja. Riječ je o metodama intervjuiranja i promatranja kako bi se dobio dublji uvid u pripremu djece za osnovnu školu iz iskustva odgojiteljica. Nakon provedenih polustrukturiranih intervjua i promatranja te analize rezultata istraživanja, važnima su se istaknula znanja iz jezika, matematike i kozmičkog odgoja, ali i samostalnost te socijalne vještine djece. Promatranjem se dobio uvid u prostore vrtića i pripremljenu okolinu koja je nužan preduvjet za odgovaranje na individualne potrebe djece. Može se zaključiti kako Montessori program ima niz prednosti. U mnogim segmentima olakšava tranziciju djece u redoviti osnovnoškolski sustav.The thesis presents the results of qualitative research on the preparation of children included in the preschool Montessori program to enter the regular elementary school system. The research sample consists of Montessori kindergarten teachers in the Republic of Croatia. Two research methods were used in the paper, interviewing and observation methods, in order to gain a deeper insight into the preparation of children for elementary school from the experience of preschool teachers. After conducting semi-structured interviews, observations and analysis of the research results, knowledge of language, mathematics and cosmic education, as well as independence and social skills of children, were highlighted as important. The observation provided an insight into the premises of the kindergarten and the prepared environment, which is a necessary prerequisite for responding to the individual needs of children. It can be concluded that the Montessori program has a number of advantages and in many segments facilitates the transition of children into the regular elementary school system
19th Century Society in Boris Akunin's Decorator
No full textCilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je analizirati ulogu društva u pripovijesti Dekorater Borisa Akunina, jednog od najpoznatijih pisaca ruske detektivske fikcije. U teorijskom dijelu rada prikazuje se društvo Carske Rusije 19. stoljeća s namjerom lakšeg prepoznavanja njegovog odraza u djelu. Analiza pripovijesti pokazala je da se u postupcima i reakcijama likova očituje motivacija koja proizlazi iz njihovog društvenog položaja. Tako, na primjer, knez Dolgorukoj unatoč brojnim ubojstvima najviše brine o vlastitoj reputaciji. U radu se također ističe kako Dekoraterove žrtve pripadaju marginaliziranim skupinama, to jest najnižem društvenom sloju, te da ih ubojica pokušava učiniti „lijepima” jer ih je upravo društvo učinilo „nakaznima“. Državni aparat odgovoran za sigurnost društva razotkriva se kao prvenstveno centriran na cara, odnosno na njegov posjet Moskvi umjesto na istragu ubojstava, čime se jasno ilustriraju prioriteti u društvu 19. stoljeća obilježenog siromaštvom većeg dijela stanovništva i zanemarivanjem običnog čovjeka.The aim of this thesis was to analyze the role of society in Decorator by Boris Akunin, one of the most famous writers of Russian detective fiction. In the theoretical part of the paper, the society of Imperial Russia of the 19th century is presented with the intention of easier recognition of its reflection in the work. The analysis of the narrative showed that the action and reactions of the characters reflect the motivation arising from their social position. Thus, for example, Prince Dolgorukoi, despite numerous murders, cares most about his own reputation. The paper also points out that Decorator’s victims belong to marginalized groups, that is, to the lowest social class, and that the killer tries to make them “beautiful” because society has made them “monsters”. The state apparatus responsible for the security of the society is exposed as primarily centered on the emperor, that is, on his visit to Moscow instead of the investigation of the murders, which clearly illustrates the priorities in the society of the 19th century marked by the poverty of the majority of the population and the neglect of the common man
Postridentine altaristic in the episcopal complex in Zadar
No full textUnutar episkopalnog kompleksa u Zadru nalazi se poveći broj izvrsnih i dobrih ostvarenja altarističke djelatnosti. Kompleks se dijeli na katedralu, zvonik, krstionicu, sakristiju katedrale, rotondu Sv. Donata i nadbiskupsku palaču. Unatrag stotinu godina u katedrali je bilo devet kvalitetnih oltara. Od njih se ističe oltar Presvetog Sakramenta, monumentalno djelo Antonija Vivianija i Francesca Cabiance iz 1719. godine, koji se nalazi sred južne lađe. Desno od njega oltar je relikvija Michelea Coste iz druge polovine 18. st., a lijevo se nalazio oltar sv. Krševana sastavljen početkom 19. st. od glavnog oltara iz crkve Sv. Marcele. U južnoj apsidi bio je oltar Bezgrešnog Začeća prebačen 1953. godine u Rodaljice. Sjeverna apsida i dio broda posvećeni su sv. Stošiji te se tu nalazio oltar sastavljen od dijelova glavnog oltara iz Sv. Donata. Ispred se nalazi oltar Srca Isusova sastavljen od dijelova glavnog oltara iz Sv. Marcele. Sred broda nalazi se oltar Pietra Onighe posvećen dušama u Čistilištu s početka 19. st., a lijevo od njega je oltar M. Coste posvećen sv. Dominiku. Datira se u drugu polovinu 18. st. Krstionica je imala tri oltara koji su stradali tokom Drugog svjetskog rata. Rotonda Sv. Donata dobila je tokom posttridentskih zahvata osam oltara kojima se izuzev par skulptura gubi trag. U sakristiji katedrale nalazio se oltar sv. Barbare, prebačen u župnu crkvu u Viru. Unutar nadbiskupske palače nalazila se kapela uništena u prvoj polovini 19. st., zamijenila ju je nova smještena u neposrednoj blizini krstionice.Inside episcopal complex of Zadar there is a substantial number of excelent and very good altaristic works. Complex is divided on the cathedral,belltower, baptistery, sacristry of the cathedral, rotonda of St. Donatus and the palace of archbishop. Until hundred years ago the cathedral kept nine altars of good quality. There protrudes an altar of the Most Holy Sacrament, a monumental work of Antonio Viviani and Francesco Cabianca from the year 1719, located in the middle of the southern nave. To his right is the altar of relics, work of Michele Costa from the second half of the 18th century, and to his left was an altar of st. Chrysogonus. It was compiled from parts of the main oltar from St. Marcela, at the beginning of the 19th century. In the southern aps was altar of the Immaculate Conception. It was moved to Rodaljice in the year 1953. Northen aps and the parto of nave are dedicated to st. Anastasia. There was located an altar made from parts of the main altar of St. Donats on which were exquisite sculptorial accomplishments. In front of that altar is the altar of The Most Holy Heart, made from the main altar of St. Marcela. In the middle of the nave there is an altar of Poor Souls in Purgatory, work of Pietro Onigha from the beginning of the 19th century. To his left is an altar of st. Dominic made by Michele Costa in the second half of the 18th century with relifs of Giuseppe Toretti. The baptistry had three altars all of which were destroyed during WW2. In the sacristy there was an altar of st. Barbara, moved to the parish church in Vir. Inside the palace of archbishop was located a chapel, destroyed in the first half of the 19th century. New chapel is located in the close proximity to the baptistry
The relationship between self-esteem, life satisfaction and problematic video game use
No full textNapretkom tehnologije, videoigre su postale jedna od najpopularnijih rekreacijskih aktivnosti neovisno o dobi, spolu i kulturi. Njihov brzi rast popularnosti potaknuo je velik interes istraživača za moguće neprilagođene oblike igranja koji se u literaturi definiraju kao problematično igranje videoigara. Ono je dovedeno u vezu s brojnim psihološkim konstruktima, uključujući i samopoštovanje te zadovoljstvo životom, pri čemu su niže samopoštovanje i zadovoljstvo životom povezani s izraženijim problematičnim igranjem videoigara. S obzirom na manjak istraživanja ove tematike na našem području, cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati odnos samopoštovanja, zadovoljstva životom i problematičnog igranja videoigara. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 307 sudionika. Podaci su prikupljeni putem online upitnika, a on se sastojao od Upitnika općih podataka, Skale generaliziranog problematičnog korištenja interneta 2 (s modificiranom uputom) (Caplan, 2010), Rosenbergove skale samopoštovanja (Rosenberg, 1965), Skale zadovoljstva životom (Diener i sur., 1985) te procjene socijalne podrške jednom česticom. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su statistički značajnu negativnu i umjerenu povezanost između problematičnog igranja videoigara i samopoštovanja te statistički značajnu negativnu i nisku povezanost problematičnog igranja videoigara i zadovoljstva životom. Osim toga, utvrđena je i značajna pozitivna i visoka povezanost samopoštovanja i zadovoljstva životom. Nadalje, utvrđena je i značajna pozitivna i niska povezanost vremena provedenog igrajući videoigre i problematičnog igranja videoigara kao i negativna i niska povezanost procijenjene socijalne podrške i problematičnog igranja videoigara. Rezultati istraživanja također su pokazali da je kod sudionika koji igraju barem jedan od tri žanra (MMORPG, MOBA, FPS) izraženije problematično igranje videoigara.With the advancement of technology, video games have become one of the most popular recreational activities regardless of age, gender, or culture. Their rapid growth in popularity has sparked significant interest among researchers in the potential maladaptive and pathological forms of gaming, which are defined in literature as problematic video game use. This has been linked to many psychological constructs, such as self-esteem and life satisfaction, where lower self-esteem and life satisfaction are linked to more problematic video game use. Given the lack of research on this topic in our region, the aim of the study was to examine the relationship between self-esteem, life satisfaction, and problematic video game use. The study included 307 participants in total. Data was collected through an online questionnaire, consisting of a General Information Questionnaire, the Generalized Problematic Internet Use Scale 2 (with modified instructions) (Caplan, 2010), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Rosenberg, 1965), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., 1985) and an assessment of social support with one item. The results of the study showed a statistically significant negative and moderate correlation between problematic video game use and self-esteem, as well as a statistically significant negative and low correlation between problematic video game use and life satisfaction. Additionally, a significant positive and high correlation between self-esteem and life satisfaction was found. Furthermore, a significant positive and low correlation between time spent playing and problematic video game use as well as a negative and low correlation between assessed social support and problematic video game use were established. The study results also showed that participants who play at least one of the three mentioned genres (MMORPG, MOBA, FPS) have more problematic video game use
Produktivnost neoklasičnih složenica
No full textThis paper provides a corpus-based research on the productivity of neoclassical compounds. The research was divided into two categories. The paper investigated the productivity of neoclassical compounds with either initial or final combining forms. After getting the results I concluded which initial combining form is the most productive and which is the least productive. The same was done for the final combining forms. This research gave me an insight into the difference in the productivity values between initial and final combining forms. Also, some of the previously done corpus-based research were mentioned because they can help better understand my own.Ovaj rad pruža korpusno istraživanje o produktivnosti neoklasičnih složenica u engleskom jeziku. Istraživanje je podijeljeno u dvije kategorije, pri čemu je istraživana produktivnost neoklasičnih složenica s početnim tvorbenim oblicima i sa završnim tvorbenim oblicima. Dobivenim rezultatima može se zaključiti koji je početni oblik najproduktivniji, a koji najmanje. Isto vrijedi i za završne tvorbene oblike. Ovo istraživanje pruža uvid u razlike unutar vrijednosti produktivnosti između početnih i završnih oblika. Također, spomenuta su i neka prijašnje provedena korpusna istraživanja, kako bi se ovo lakše razumjelo
The relationship between loneliness, self-esteem and social support in young people with acne
No full textAkne se najčešće javljaju tijekom puberteta, a njihova pojavnost se može primijetiti na najuočljivijim dijelovima tijela. Stoga, akne mogu ostaviti značajne psihičke i socijalne posljedice na mlade povezane sa percepcijom „neprivlačnog izgleda“ (Šitum i sur., 2016; Titus i Hodge, 2012; Williams i sur., 2012). S obzirom na sve veću učestalost pojave akni kod mladih te psihosocijalne specifičnosti perioda puberteta u kojem se akne uglavnom javljaju, još uvijek nema dovoljno istraživanja o posljedicama percepcije ozbiljnosti akni na mentalno zdravlje. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati odnos socijalne i emocionalne usamljenosti, samopoštovanja te socijalne podrške sa percepcijom ozbiljnosti akni kod mladih. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 108 srednjoškolaca koji su tijekom nastave pristupili online upitniku, te su uz pitanja o demografskim karakteristikama, ispunjavali Skalu socijalne i emocionalne usamljenosti, Rosenbergovu skalu samopoštovanja, Skalu socijalnih zaliha te Skalu percepcije ozbiljnosti akni. Obradom rezultata nisu utvrđene značajne povezanosti između razina usamljenosti, samopoštovanja i socijalne podrške sa percepcijom ozbiljnosti akni. Ipak, sudionici koji su posjetili dermatologa i koriste neke lijekove za liječenje akni izvještavaju o nižoj razini ljubavne usamljenosti u odnosu na sudionike koji nisu posjetili dermatologa te ne koriste lijekove za liječenje akni.Acne is a skin condition that most commonly occurs during puberty, with its presence being observed on the most noticeable parts of the body. Therefore, acne can have significant psychological and social consequences for young people, more specifically when connected to the perception of an "unattractive appearance" (Šitum et al., 2016; Titus & Hodge, 2012; Williams et al., 2012). Given the increasing prevalence of acne among young people and the psychosocial specifics of the puberty period during which acne mostly occurs, there is still not enough research on the implications severe acne can possibly inflict on one's mental health. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between social and emotional loneliness, self-esteem, and social support with the perception of acne severity among young people. The study involves 108 high school students. During class, participants completed an online questionnaire, which, in addition to demographic questions, included the Social and Emotional Loneliness Scale, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Social Support Scale, and the Acne Severity Perception Scale. The result analysis did not establish significant correlations between levels of loneliness, self-esteem, and social support with the perception of acne severity. Participants who saw a dermatologist and used acne m
The relationship between exercise and life satisfaction, physical appearance satisfaction, and self-esteem
No full textVažnost tjelovježbe je opće poznata kao i njezini utjecaji na fizičko i mentalno zdravlje. Ona vodi do smanjenja rizika od srčanih bolesti, dijabetesa, depresije te povećava psihološku dobrobit. Tjelovježba poboljšava određene domene života, kao što su smanjenje stresa, bolji san i raspoloženje, što se odražava na ukupno zadovoljstvo životom. Ona također povećava zadovoljstvo izgledom putem promjena u kondiciji i snazi te povećava svijest o tjelesnim sposobnostima. Osim toga, poboljšava samopoštovanje kroz fizičke promjene i povećanje samoefikasnosti. Osnovni cilj ovog rada bio je utvrditi razlikuju li se osobe koje se bave i osobe koje se ne bave tjelovježbom u zadovoljstvu životom, tjelesnim izgledom i samopoštovanjem te utvrditi razlike u ovim varijablama obzirom na čestinu vježbanja. Istraživanje je provedeno putem online ankete na uzorku od 269 sudionika. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da ne postoji statistički značajna razlika u zadovoljstvu životom i samopoštovanju između osoba koje se bave tjelovježbom i onih koje se ne bave. Međutim, utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika u zadovoljstvu tjelesnim izgledom, pri čemu su osobe koje se bave tjelovježbom zadovoljnije svojim izgledom u odnosu na one koje se ne bave tjelovježbom. Nadalje, analiza podataka s obzirom na učestalost vježbanja pokazala je da osobe koje vježbaju redovito i umjereno često imaju veće zadovoljstvo izgledom od onih koje vježbaju rijetko, dok razlike u zadovoljstvu životom i samopoštovanju nisu bile statistički značajne. Ovi rezultati sugeriraju da je tjelovježba povezana sa zadovoljstvom tjelesnim izgledom, ali ne nužno i s općim zadovoljstvom životom ili samopoštovanjem. Buduća istraživanja trebala bi se usmjeriti na detaljniju analizu specifičnih aspekata tjelovježbe, poput vrste i intenziteta aktivnosti, kao i korištenje specifičnih skala samopoštovanja vezanih za tjelesnu domenu.The importance of exercise is well-known, as are its effects on physical and mental health. It leads to a reduction in the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and depression, and increases psychological well-being. Exercise improves certain domains of life, such as reducing stress, improving sleep and mood, which reflects on overall life satisfaction. It also increases satisfaction with appearance through changes in fitness and strength, and enhances awareness of physical abilities. Furthermore, it improves self-esteem through physical changes and increased self-efficacy. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether there are differences between people who exercise and those who do not in terms of life satisfaction, physical appearance satisfaction, and self-esteem, as well as to identify differences in these variables concerning exercise frequency. The research was conducted via an online survey on a sample of 269 participants. The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in life satisfaction and self-esteem between those who exercise and those who do not. However, there was a statistically significant difference in satisfaction with physical appearance, with those who exercise being more satisfied with their appearance compared to those who do not exercise. Furthermore, data analysis regarding the frequency of exercise showed that people who exercise regularly and moderately often have greater satisfaction with their appearance than those who exercise rarely, while differences in life satisfaction and selfesteem were not statistically significant. These results suggest that exercise is related to satisfaction with physical appearance, but not necessarily overall life satisfaction or self-esteem. Future research should focus on a more detailed analysis of specific aspects of exercise, such as the type and intensity of activity, as well as the use of specific self-esteem scales related to the physical domain
The educator's perspective in the inclusive aspect of educational work as a factor in the quality of pedagogical leadership and managment of an early childhood and preschool education institution
No full textInkluzivno obrazovanje odgojitelja koji rade u predškolskim ustanovama u Republici Hrvatskoj ima ključnu ulogu u osiguravanju prava svih djece na jednak pristup obrazovanju od najranije dobi. Ovaj pristup temelji se na promišljanju o dobrobitima djeteta i kvaliteti podrške koja se ostvaruje kroz individualan pristup svakom djetetu, partnerstvo i suradnju svih dionika odgojno-obrazovnog procesa te prilagođenost okruženja u kojem dijete boravi. Cilj istraživanja provedenog u Dječjem vrtiću „Biokovsko zvonce“ Makarskabio je stjecanje uvida u iskustva i profesionalno mišljenje odgojitelja o kvaliteti provođenja inkluzije. Metodom fokus grupa, putem iskustvenog narativa, ispitanici su procijenili vlastite kompetencije za rad s djecom razvojnih teškoća, motivaciju za dodatno stjecanje vještina i znanja u tom području, dostupnost edukacija te primjerenost prostorno-materijalnih i organizacijskih uvjeta rada. Dobiveni rezultati istraživanja poslužit će kao smjernice za daljnje unaprjeđivanje i planiranje inkluzivnog rada u Dječjem vrtiću „Biokovsko zvonce“ Makarska, kao i u drugim ustanovama ranog i predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja.Inclusive education for early childhood educators in Croatia plays a crucial role in ensuring equal access to education for all children, starting from an early age. The core focus is on the child’s well-being and the quality of support provided, which is primarily demonstrated through individualized approaches to each child, collaborative partnerships among all stakeholders in the educational process and the adaptation of the child’s environment. The objective of this study, conducted in Kindergarten “Biokovsko zvonce” in Makarska, was to gain insights into educators’ experiences and professional perspectives regarding the quality of inclusive practices. Using qualitative research methods, including focus group discussions and experiential narratives, educators evaluated their own competencies in working with children with developmental disabilities. They also reflected on their motivation for further training in this area, the availability of educational resources, and the suitability of spatial, material, and organizational conditions
Accidents that inspired development of navigational electronic devices
No full textTijekom cijele povijesti pomorstva brojne su nesreće na moru bile inspiracija za uvođenje novih tehnologija i međunarodnih propisa. Može se reći da međunarodne pomorske organizacije „uče“ iz grešaka, kako brodograđevnih industrija tako i samih pomoraca ali i svih onih uključenih u pomorsku industriju u globalu. Nesreće se pritom pokazuju kao bitni katalizatori promjena i donose novosti koje bi inače bile uvedene u pomorstvo mnogo kasnije. U ovom završnom radu detaljno su prikazane tri, inače u javnosti vrlo eksponirane pomorske nesreće, koje su povezane s uvođenjem ili ubrzanjem uvođenja novih navigacijskih tehnologija ili međunarodnih propisa kojima je cilj izbjegavanje ponavljanja takvih situacija, tj. poboljšanje sigurnosti pomorskog prometa. U radu se ograničilo na one pomorske nesreće koje su izravno ili neizravno pridonjele razvoju i unapređenju elektroničkih navigacijskih uređaja ili procedura povezanih s njihovim korištenjem od strane članova navigacijske straže.Throughout the entire history of seafaring, numerous maritime accidents have inspired the introduction of new technologies and international safety regulations. It can be said that international maritime organizations "learn" from the mistakes of both the shipbuilding industry and the seafarers themselves, as well as all those involved in the maritime industry globally. Accidents thus prove to be significant catalysts for change, bringing innovations that would otherwise be introduced into seafaring much later. This paper details three maritime accidents, which were highly publicized, that are linked to the introduction or acceleration of new navigational technologies or international regulations, aimed at preventing the recurrence of such situations, i.e., improving maritime traffic safety. The paper is limited to those maritime accidents that directly or indirectly contributed to the development and advancement of electronic navigational devices or procedures associated with their use by members of the navigational watch
