Dimensions of Virtual Behaviour of Adolescents
Cilj je rada istražiti kod adolescenata manifestacije korištenja Facebook društvenom mrežom i utvrditi dimenzije ponašanja adolescenata na društvenoj mreži. Uzorak ispitanika (N = 134) čine učenici i učenice drugih razreda srednje škole. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da postoje tri dimenzije virtualnog djelovanja adolescenata: intrinzična, ekstrinzična i rizična dimenzija. Svaka od dimenzija obuhvaća različite domene aktivnosti koje potencijalno ukazuju na odgojne implikacije virtualnog djelovanja (informacije i komunikacija, socijalizacija, ovisnost i nasilje). Rezultati t-testa pokazuju da nema razlike u intrinzičnom i ekstrinzičnom ponašanju s obzirom na spol, ali postoji razlika u implikacijama za rizično ponašanje – adolescentice su sklonije od adolescenata poistovjećivanju virtualnog svijeta sa stvarnim socijalnim mrežama te su izloženije virtualnom nasilju; dok su adolescenti skloniji od adolescentica sudjelovati u virtualnom nasilju te njihovo virtualno djelovanje pogoduje stvaranju virtualne ovisnosti.The aim of the paper is to explore adolescents\u27 manifestations of the Facebook social network usage and to determine dimensions of adolescent behaviour on the social network. A sample of respondents (N = 134) is made up of second grade high school students. The research results show that there are three dimensions of the virtual activity of adolescents: intrinsic, extrinsic and risk dimension. Each dimension includes different domains of activities that potentially point to the educational implications of virtual activity (information and communication, socialization, addiction and violence). The results of the t-test show that there is no difference in intrinsic and extrinsic behaviour with respect to gender, but there is a difference in the implications for risk behaviour - female adolescents are more prone to identifying the virtual world with actual social networks and are more exposed to virtual violence, while male adolescents are more inclined to participate in virtual violence, and their virtual activity favours the creation of virtual addiction

SOCIOPEDAGOŠKE POSLJEDICE STIGME I STIGMATIZIRANJA
Cilj je rada s teorijskog aspekta istražiti i identificirati oblike stigmatizacije koja u konačnici
ukazuje na višestruko negativne društvene implikacije. Metodom sekudarne analize i analize
sadržaja u radu se problematizira stigmatiziranje u društvenom i pedagoškom kontekstu čije su
posljedice osobito negativne za ugrožene i marginalizirane skupine ljudi. Analizom podataka
utvrđeno je da nasilje nad mišljenjem ima obilježje bezuvjetne podređenosti pojedinca normama
i inim kolektivitetima koji stvaraju stereotipe o drugima i drugačijima kao nepoželjnima te da
se stigmatizacija temelji na rasprostranjenim stereotipima koji postaju osnova za isključivanje
ili izbjegavanje određene skupine ljudi. Zaključuje se da su u procesu destigmatizacije odgoj i
obrazovanje iznimno važan segment u formiranju (ne)humanih društvenih obrazaca ponašanja
Prisotnost požarov in poplav v življenjskih okoljih ogrožene vrste metulja barjanski okarček (Coenonympha oedippus) v Sloveniji
In Slovenia the False ringlet Coenonympha oedippus uniquely occurs both on wet (Ljubljana Marsh and surroundings) and dry grasslands (Slovenian Istria, Karst, Gorica Hills). Natural hazards that threaten its habitats include fires and floods; the frequency of their occurrence in the former and existing habitats of C. oedippus was determined using the χ2-test. We showed that habitats on wet grasslands are less threatened by fire than those on dry grasslands. Among the latter, habitats in the Karst and Slovenian Istria are the most threatened. Habitats of C. oedippus are threatened by flooding only in Slovenian Istria and Ljubljana Marsh. Considering the extent of fire and flood risk and fragmentation of C. oedippus habitats in Slovenia, we assume that such natural hazards may lead to local extinction of the species.Barjanski okarček se v Sloveniji edinstveno pojavlja tako na vlažnih (Ljubljansko barje z okolico) kot na suhih traviščih (slovenska Istra, Kras, Goriška brda). Med naravnimi nesrečami, ki ogrožajo njegove habitatne krpe, so požari in poplave. Njihovo pogostost pojavljanja v nekdanjih in obstoječih bivališčih barjanskega okarčka smo ugotavljali s χ2-testom. Pokazali smo, da so življenjska okolja na vlažnih traviščih požarno manj ogrožena kot na suhih traviščih. Med slednjimi so najbolj ogrožene habitatne krpe na Krasu in v slovenski Istri. Habitatne krpe barjanskega okarčka so poplavno ogrožene le v slovenski Istri in na Ljubljanskem barju. Glede na stopnjo požarne in poplavne ogroženosti ter razdrobljenosti življenjskih okolij barjanskega okarčka v Sloveniji domnevamo, da lahko tovrstne naravne nesreče povzročijo lokalno izumrtje vrste

Predstavljene so bistvene značilnosti evropskega ekološkega omrežja NATURA 2000, stopnja ogroženosti metuljev v Evropi in vzroki za upadanje številčnosti njihovih populacij v zadnjih desetletjih, vloga Slovenije pri ohranjanju ogroženih vrst metuljev in njihovih bivališč na ozemlju Evrope
THE EFFECT OF INTRADIALYTIC EXERCISE PROGRAM ON THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE IN HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS
Cilj rada bio je istražiti učinak 16-tjednog intradijaliznog programa vježbanja, koji se sastoji od 30 minuta vježbanja u toku prva 2 sata dijalize sa učestalošću od 3 puta sedmično, na kvalitetu života, razinu depresije i anksioznosti, te na fizičke performanse pacijenata na hemodijaliznom (HD) tretmanu. Provedena je klinička, longitudinalna, prospektivna studija s dizajnom ponovljenih mjerenja u trajanju od 16 tjedana. U istraživanje je uključen namjerni uzorak od 52 HD pacijenta, koji su na HD tretmanu najmanje 6 mjeseci. Na početku i nakon 16 tjedana programa vježbanja izmjereni su kvaliteta života, stupanj depresije i anksioznosti (anketni upitnici: SF-36, Back Depression Inventory-BDI i Back Anxiety Inventory-BAI) te fizičke performanse (modificirana vizualna analogna ljestvica za subjektivnu procjenu fizičke kondicije-VAS i manualni mišićni test-MMT). Nakon 16-tjednog programa vježbanja značajno su bile poboljšane sljedeće ljestvice anketnog upitnika SF-36: uloga funkcioniranja/emocionalno (P=0,018), energija/zamor (P=0,002) i socijalno funkcioniranje (P = 0,030). Razine depresije i anksioznosti bile su značajno snižene u muškaraca (P = 0,007 i P = 0,022 i žena (P = 0,001 i P = 0,000). Ljestvice VAS i MMT imale su značajno više vrijednosti u muškaraca (P = 0,000 i P = 0,001) i žena (P = 0,019 i P = 0,001). Zaključujemo da intradijalizni program vježbanja vjerojatno dovodi do poboljšanja pojedinih aspekata kvalitete života i fizičkih performansi te sniženja razine depresije i anksioznosti u HD pacijenata.Aim: To determine the effect of a 16-week intradialytic exercise program consisting of 30 minutes of exercise during the first two hours of dialysis with three times a week frequency, on the quality of life (QoL), level of depression/anxiety and physical performance in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: The clinical, longitudinal, prospective study with one-group repeated measures design was conducted during a 16-week period. A convenience sample of 52 HD patients, who had been on HD for a minimum of 6 months, were included. QoL, level of depression and anxiety (questionnaires: SF-36, Back Depression Inventory (BDI) and Back Anxiety Inventory (BAI)) and physical performance (modifying Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Manual Muscle Testing (MMT)) were assessed at baseline and after 4-month exercise program. Results: The following scales of SF-36 questionnaire were improved after 16-week exercise program: role functioning/emotional (P=0.018), energy/fatigue (P=0.002) and social functioning (P=0.030). Level of depression and anxiety were significantly decreased in males (P=0.007 and P=0.022, respectively) and females (P=0.001 and P=0.000, respectively). VAS scale and MMT were significantly increased in males (P=0.000 and P=0.001, respectively) and females (P=0.019 and P=0.001, respectively) after 16-week exercise program. Conclusion: Exercise program improves some aspects of QoL and physical performance, and decreases the level of depression and anxiety in HD patients
Native Speaker Perceptions of Accented Speech: The English Pronunciation of Macedonian EFL Learners
The paper reports on the results of a study that aimed to describe the vocalic and consonantal features of the English pronunciation of Macedonian EFL learners as perceived by native speakers of English and to find out whether native speakers who speak different standard variants of English perceive the same segments as non-native. A specially designed computer web application was employed to gather two types of data: a) quantitative (frequency of segment variables and global foreign accent ratings on a 5-point scale), and b) qualitative (open-ended questions). The result analysis points out to three most frequent markers of foreign accent in the English speech of Macedonian EFL learners: final obstruent devoicing, vowel shortening and substitution of English dental fricatives with Macedonian dental plosives. It also reflects additional phonetic aspects poorly explained in the available reference literature such as allophonic distributional differences between the two languages and intonational mismatch
