It was hypothesized that dysfunc- tional negative emotions (DNE) would positively predict burnout, positive emotions (PE) would negatively predict buronut, while functional negative emotions (FNE) were hypothesized to be un- correlated to burnout. To test those assumptions, a short‒term, 12 week prospective study was carried out (three measurements, with the interval of 6 weeks). A sample of 197 employees took part in the first measurement (60.3% women); however, due to sample attrition, 113 (64.6% women) underwent all three meas- urements (Little’s MCAR test n.s., which indicates that the data were missing completely at random). Respondents completed the Work burnout scale from the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, and the Inventory of functional and dysfunctional emotions. It has been shown that the reversed causal model displayed greater fit indices in comparison with the causal model, meaning that it is more likely that burnout will lead to subsequent emotions than vice‒versa. What is more interesting is that in fact burnout had a stronger (although very similar) impact on FNE than it did on DNE. However, when measured simultaneously, it appears that the experience of emotions has greater effect on burnout than vice‒versa. Moreover, in cross‒sectional analysis (at Time 3), FNE had a greater (although very similar) unique effect on burn- out than did DNE. In Time 2, only DNE exerted significant effect on burnout. Finally, PE largely did not predict burnout. The results were discussed in the context of REBT model of emotions. The limitations of the study were also highlighted and discussed.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42498361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Iako postoje teorijska razmatranja koja povezuju bavljenje sportom sa izraženošću emo- cionalne inteligencije, mali je broj empirijskih istraživanja te veze, a ona su pogotovo rijetka na našem podneblju i kada je u pitanju ado- lescentska dob. Cilj našeg istraživanja je bio ispitati da li bavljenje sportom na srednjoškolskom uzrastu ostvaruje relaciju sa emocio- nalnom inteligencijom koja je konceptualizovana i kao crta ličnosti i kao sposobnost. Na uzorku od 191 učenika srednje škole (od čega 61.1% ženskog pola, uzrasta od 14 do 19 godina) zadani su upitnik samoprocjene UEK45, koji ima trofaktorsku strukturu, te dva objek- tivna situaciona testa emocionalne inteligencije, STEU i STEM. Naši rezultati potvrđuju potrebu za diferencijacijom konstrukata koji se mjere upitnicima samoprocjene i objektivnim testovima. Nada- lje, ustanovljeno je da, čak i kada se kontrolišu efekti pola i godina starosti, sportisti postižu više rezultate na svim mjerama, ali je to pogotovo evidentno na objektivnim testovima. U radu diskutujemo moguća objašnjenja za dobijene razlike koje se očituju na hijerarhij- ski složenijim aspektima emocionalne inteligencije i ukazujemo na potrebu za multimetodskim pristupom kada su u pitanju naučna i stručna procjena emocionalnih kompetencija mladih sportista.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46990525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides these measures, HEXACO-100 was applied on a sample of 310 participants (41% of male) from the general population. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed marginal fit indices for 24QB6, and satisfactory fit indices for Mini-IPIP6, but not for BHI. BHI also had the smallest Cronbach’s alphas for the scales, but the highest correlations with matching HEXACO-100 scales, confirming its convergent and discriminant validity. Regarding 24QB6, it was noticeable that all scales were valid, except for Honesty/Propriety, which showed substantial relations with both Honesty-Humility and Conscientiousness. Scales from Mini-IPIP6 had the highest alphas, but also the highest mean inter-item correlation, indicating that they measured a narrower scope of the traits. Also, validity of the Agreeableness scale was limited. Taken together, all the measures had advantages and disadvantages, and authors should choose a short measure in line with the importance of either validity or reliability.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45195864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study, involving 200 junior and senior high school students from Serbia, examined inclination for lavish spending on brand name clothes in relation to social dominance. Our aim was to examine a predictive relationship between an exploitative interpersonal strategy (marked by Machiavellianism, Leadership, and Ruthless Self−Advancement), and the attitude toward conspicuous consumption. Our respondents with high esteem of power, emanating from the principal position within a group, and prone to Machiavellianism and Ruthless Self−Advancement, had a positive attitude toward conspicuous consumption (an indirect measure of the actual behaviour). Although one’s attitude toward conspicuous consumption is likely to be multifaceted, our findings suggest that a positive attitude towards conspicuous consumption may be an accompanying ingredient of the opportunistic and calculating life strategy. The results indicate that conspicuous consumption is most likely embedded in the social ranking processes.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43048455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In two experiments, participants were exposed to either emotionally positive or emotionally negative stimuli before watching a TVC. The effectiveness of the TVC was measured by 4 indicators: Ad recall, attitude toward the ad (Aad), attitude toward the brand (Ab), and purchase intent (PI). Results of Experiment 1 revealed that participants who were pre-exposed to a positive emotional context had a more positive Aad, Ab and a higher PI, when compared to those who were pre-exposed to a negative emotional context. Experiment 2 demonstrated that pre-exposure to the positive emotional context was associated with more positive Ab and a higher PI, while preexposure to the negative emotional context led to more negative Aad. In both experiments there was no indication of the influence of the emotional context on Ad recall. However, data from Experiment 2 suggested that both positive and negative emotional contexts positively affected ad recognition, when compared to an emotionally neutral situation. In conclusion, our findings advocate the importance of emotional context in which TVCs are broadcasted to the general public, a fact that has been vastly neglected so far by media planners.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43622437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Proverena je preciznost merenja, kao i opravdanost primene koeficijenata u proceni likovnih produkata, uz poređenje sa rezultatima izvedenim iz konsenzualne tehnike procene (CAT). Postupak konstrukcije obuhvata dva koraka: 1) kategorizaciju kreativnih produkata po sličnosti, uz proveru njihove intencionalnosti, nakon čega sledi 2) izračunavanje koeficijenata izuzetnosti kao mere originalnosti pojedinačnih odgovora (količnika broja 1 i broja ispitanika koji su dali isti odgovor), i koeficijenta kreativnosti (količnika dobijenih i mogućih odgovora na nivou varijable). Validnost i pouzdanost koeficijenata izuzetnosti testirane su uz učešće 53 studenta, podeljenih u dva poduzorka: umetnička i opšta studentska populacija. Svaki student je imao zadatak da na osnovu apstraktnog stimulusa napravi svoj crtež. Potom je kreativnost njihovih crteža izmerena koeficijentima, kao i konsenzualnom tehnikom procene (Consensual Assessment Technique - CAT). Razlike u kreativnosti između umetničke i opšte studentske populacije ukazuju na diskriminativnost i kriterijumsku validnost koeficijenata. Pozitivna i statistički značajna korelacija između ekspertskih procena i koeficijenata govori u prilog konvergentne validnosti. Nalazi sugerišu da konstruisani koeficijenti omogućuju precizno i objektivno procenjivanje likovnih produkata podjednako kao i CAT, pritom su daleko dostupniji u uslovima ograničenih resursa, te se primena već sada čini opravdanom.","PeriodicalId":43074,"journal":{"name":"Primenjena Psihologija","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42650017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
