| Abstract | Temeljni cilj ovog diplomskog rada jest dobiti uvid u stavove očeva prema kockanju, istražiti učestalost njihovog kockanja kao i prevalenciju psihosocijalnih problema povezanih s kockanjem. Specifični su ciljevi istražiti razlike u stavovima, učestalosti kockanja i problemima povezanim s kockanjem između mlađih i starijih očeva te razlike u navedenim obilježjima s obzirom na probleme povezane s kockanjem.
Ovaj rad je sastavni dio šireg podprojekta pod nazivom „Roditeljska percepcija kockanja mladih“, a koji se provodi na Edukacijsko-rehabilitacijskom fakultetu u okviru višegodišnjeg znanstveno-istraživačkog projekta „Kockanje mladih u Hrvatskoj“ pod voditeljstvom izv.prof.dr.sc. Nevena Ricijaša. Sudjelovanje u istraživanju bilo je dobrovoljno i anonimno, a provedeno je na uzorku od ukupno 283 osobe muškog spola, odnosno na očevima srednjoškolaca s područja gradova Zagreb i Split. Raspon dobi sudionika kreće se od 30 do 67 godina, s prosječnom dobi od Mdob=47,50 godina (SDdob=5,736).
Stav je mjeren Skalom stavova prema kockanju (Jelić, Huić i Dinić, 2013), aktivnosti kockanja modificiranom verzijom Upitnika aktivnosti kockanja (Ricijaš i sur., 2011), dok su problemi povezani s kockanjem mjereni Upitnikom South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS) (Lesieur i Blume, 1987).
Rezultati su pokazali kako kod očeva prevladavaju uglavnom negativni stavovi prema kockanju kao aktivnosti te nisu utvrđene značajne razlike u stavovima prema kockanju s obzirom na dob očeva. Nadalje, očevi imaju određeno iskustvo u igranju igara na sreću, a sukladno očekivanjima, najviše sudjeluju u klađenju na sportske rezultate. Postoje značajne razlike u učestalosti igranja određenih igara s obzirom na dob, na način da se mlađi očevi češće klade. SOGS instrumentom kod očeva su ispitani problemi povezani s kockanjem, a rezultati su pokazali da većina očeva nema probleme povezane s kockanjem. Odnosno, 16,7% očeva ima umjerene probleme povezane s kockanjem, a kod 1,6% njih se radi o vjerojatnom patološkom kockanju. Također, između očeva koji imaju i koji nemaju problema povezanih s kockanjem nema značajne razlike u stavovima prema kockanju, ali se očevi koji imaju neke probleme povezane s kockanjem češće klade i češće igraju igre na automatima. Jednako tako, između očeva s problemima i očeva bez problema povezanih s kockanjem nisu pronađene značajne razlike s obzirom na dob. |
| Abstract (english) | The main aim of this study was to examine fathers' attitudes towards gambling, frequency of their gambling and the prevalence of psychosocial problems related to gambling. Specific goals were to explore differences in attitudes towards gambling, gambling frequency and gambling related problems between younger and older fathers. Also, the goal was to investigate differences in attitudes towards gambling and gambling frequency considering gambling related problems.
The research has been a part of study "Parental Perception of Youth Gambling", whose activities are being carried out by the Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences, within the wider project "Youth gambling in Croatia“. Leader of this project is Neven Ricijaš, PhD. Participation in the study was completely anonymous and voluntary. The research was conducted on a sample of 283 males, high scool students' fathers from Zagreb and Split. The age range of participants ranges from 30 to 67 years, with an average age of Mage=47,50 (SDage=5,736).
The attitude was measured with Attitudes Towards Gambling Scale (Jelić, Huić and Dinić, 2013), gambling activities with modified version of Gambling Activities Questionnaire (Ricijaš et al., 2011), while the gambling related problems were measured with South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS) (Lesieur and Blume, 1987).
The results showed that fathers generaly have negative attitudes towards gambling as an activity and there was no significant differences in attitudes towars gambling considering fathers' age. Further, fathers have certain experience in games of chance and, as expected, they mostly engage in sports betting. Significant differences considering age exists in a way that younger fathers played sports betting and slot machines more games than older ones did. SOGS instrument examined fathers' gambling related problems and results showed that fathers generally don't have gambling related problems. Results showed that 16,7% fathers have moderate gambling related problems, while 1,6% are probable pathological gamblers. Also, between fathers that have some gambling related problems and the ones that haven't, there was no significant difference in attitudes towards gambling but fathers that have some gambling related problems played sports betting and slot machines more. Also, between fathers with problems and fathers without gambling related problems there was no significant differences considering age. |
