Abstract

Glavni cilj ovog rada je istražiti razinu intenziteta eksternaliziranih problema u ponašanju i vanjskih zaštitnih čimbenika, razlike s obzirom na spol te njihovu povezanost kod djece i mladih, korisnika intervencija Hrvatskog zavoda za socijalni rad. Konkretno, istraživanjem se želi utvrditi razina intenziteta agresivnog ponašanja i kršenja normi te vanjskih zaštitnih čimbenika prema Modulu razvoja mladih, razlike s obzirom na spol te povezanost navedenih pojmova. Ovo istraživanje dio je projekta „Razvoj instrumenta za procjenu fenomenoloških obilježja ponašanja djece u sustavu socijalne skrbi“ koji se provodi u okviru programa ISKORAK (program se provodi od 2021. do 2024. godina).
Uzorak čini 90 djece i mladih, u dobi od 12 do 18 godina, korisnika intervencija Hrvatskog zavoda za socijalni rad. Od ukupnog uzorka, većinu čine mladići (N=51), dok su djevojke zastupljene u nešto manjem broju (N=39). Upotrijebljeni su sljedeći instrumenti: Modul otpornosti i razvoja mladih (Resilience and youth development module; WestEd i CDE, 2000, 2001) te Upitnik o ponašanjima djece i mladih (Mirosavljević i sur., 2023). Prilikom analize podataka, korištene su metode deskriptive statistike (aritmetička sredina, medijan, mod, standardna devijacija, raspon rezultata), Spearmanov koeficijent korelacije te Mann–Whitney U –Test.
Rezultati ovog istraživanja su sljedeći: djeca i mladi, korisnici intervencija Hrvatskog zavoda za socijalni rad, nisko procjenjuju vlastito agresivno ponašanje i kršenje normi, a visoko procjenjuju svoje vanjske zaštitne čimbenike. Nadalje, pokazalo se da kod agresivnog ponašanja i kršenja normi nema razlika s obzirom na spol. U odnosu na vanjske zaštitne čimbenike, razlika između mladića i djevojaka postoji samo na području visokih očekivanja od odrasle osobe u školi na način da djevojke pokazuju više rezultate na tom području od mladića. Agresivno ponašanje je značajno negativno povezano sa sljedećim vanjskim zaštitnim čimbenicima: brižni odnosi s odraslom osobom u obitelji, visoka očekivanja od obitelji, zajednice i prijatelja, povezanost sa školom, smislena participacija u školi i smislene aktivnosti u obitelji dok je kršenje normi značajno negativno povezano sa svim vanjskim zaštitnim čimbenicima prema Modulu razvoja mladih.

Abstract (english)

The main goal of this paper is to examine the level of intensity of externalized behavioral problems and external protective factors, gender differences and the connection between these phenomena in children and youth, beneficiaries of the interventions of the Croatian Institute for Social Work. In particular, the research aims to determine the level of intensity of aggressive behavior and rule breaking behavior and external protective factors according to the Youth Development Module, gender differences and the connection between the mentioned terms. This research is part of the project "Development of an questionnaire for assessing the phenomenological characteristics of children's behavior in the social welfare systemsystem" which is carried out within the framework of the A STEP FORWARD (ISKORAK) program (the program is carried out from 2021 to 2024).
The sample consists of 90 children and youth, aged 12 to 18, beneficiaries of the interventions of the Croatian Institute for Social Work. Of the total sample, the majority are boys (N=51), while girls are represented in a slightly smaller number (N=39). The following instruments were used in the research: Resilience and youth development module (WestEd & CDE, 2000, 2001) and Child and youth behaviour questionnaire (Mirosavljević et al., 2023). During data analysis, descriptive statistics methods (arithmetic mean, median, mode, standard deviation, range of results), Spearman's correlation coefficient and Mann–Whitney U-Test were used.
The results of this research are as follows: children and youth, beneficiaries of the interventions of the Croatian Institute for Social Work, rate their own aggressive behavior and rule breaking behavior low, while their external protective factors they rate highly. Furthermore, it was shown that there are no gender differences in aggressive behavior and rule breaking behavior. In relation to external protective factors, the difference between boys and girls exists only in the area of high expectations from an adult in school, in such a way that girls show higher results in that area than boys. Aggressive behavior is significantly negatively associated with the following external protective factors: caring adult relationships in home, high expectations from adults at home, at community and from friends, connection with the school, meaningful participation at school and meaningful participation at home, while rule breaking behavior is significantly negatively associated with all external protective factors according to the Youth Development Module.
