Istraživanjem se nastojalo utvrditi uticaj afektivne vezanosti u djetinjstvu kao prediktora stresa, anksioznosti, depresije i adverzivnih iskustava kod mladih. Uzorak istraživanja činilo je 202 ispitanika, ujednačeni po polu (Nm=102; Nž=100), koji dolaze sa područja grada Bihać i okoline. Za potrebe istraživanja korišteni su upitnik depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa (DASS skala), upitnik adverzivnih iskustava iz djetinjstva (ACE) i upitnik porodične afektivne vezanosti (PAVb). Nepotpunost porodice narušava porodičnu strukturu i remeti njeno prirodno stanje što može dovesti do patologije afektivne vezanosti koja se u našem istraživanju pokazala kao značajan prediktor internalizirajućih (simptomi anksioznosti i depresije) promjena u ponašanja kod mladih (p.01). Nekonzistentnost odnosa u porodici dovodi i do potencijalno traumatskih, adverzivnih, iskustva koja je osoba mogla da doživi u periodu od rođenja do 18 godine života a čija simptomatologija je pokazana na statistički značajnom nivou (p.01) u ovom istraživanju. Istraživanja ukazuju na konzistentne spolne razlike u kojima žene imaju intezivnije internalizirajuće simptome od muškaraca što u ovom istraživanju nije pokazano kroz statističku značajnost. Naime, zbog razlika u adolescenciji koje postoje u stilu suočavanja sa stresnim situacijama između muškaraca i žena, rezultati ovog istraživanja ukazuju da postoje razlike u kojima muškarci pokazuju statistički značajnije (p.01) ispoljvanje depresivnosti i u prosjeku izraženije simptome anksioznosti i adverzivnih iskustava, a žene samo statistički značajno (p.01) ispoljavanje simptoma stresa.

Rad se bavi pitanjem zaštite interesa djeteta u postupku institucionalnog zbrinjavanja u dom za djecu bez roditeljskog staranja kroz implementaciju principa „najbolji interes djeteta“ u centrima za socijalni rad. Namjera autora je bila da se, kroz kvalitativnu analizu, izvrši analiza slučajeva smještaja djece u ustanovu socijalne zaštite kao i metodologije i postupaka koji se sprovode u socijalnoj zaštititi u tim slučajevima. Istraživanje je provedeno prikupljanjem i analizom spisa u Centru za socijalni rad Derventa. U radu je prikazana deskriptivna analiza obilježja slučajeva izdvajanja 26 djece iz 14 porodica u periodu od deset godina (2010 – 2020), te intervencije organa starateljstva. Rezultati su ukazali na zaključak da su djeca izmještena iz razloga postojanja ugroženosti porodičnom situacijom, te da donošenju te odluke prethodi niz opsežnih stručnih postupaka i intervencija. Na kraju je istaknut značaj procjene stručnih radnika organa starateljstva vođenjem principom „najbolji interes djeteta“, te naglašena potrebu unapređenja sistema zaštite djece bez adekvatnog roditeljskog staranja u smislu kadrovskih promjena, sistemskih saradnji, razvoja deinstitucionalizovanog zbrinjavanja djece i unaprijeđenja sistemske podrške porodici.

Cultures of remembrance that are officially affirmed by national elites in the Western Balkan countries, that is in the former Yugoslavia, are a source of ongoing conflict. Various collective memories and mutually antagonized interpretations of the past, show that Croats, Serbs, Bosnians, Macedonians, Montenegrins and others who lived together for centuries and decades within a single state, after all interpret and remember their common history in completely different ways. Their social narratives about the past and dominant cultures of memory are predominantly selective, one-sided, intolerant, exclusive. After a long time, they lived together members of different ethnic, religious and national backgrounds and their historically unfinished and unsuccessful attempt to form a common Yugoslav culture and unique Yugoslav identity, a difficult civil war occurred, ethno-nationalism escalated, and people who were very close and very similar to one another, tried to create as much difference and distance between themselves through violence. All national communities that participated in the wars of the 1990s, emphasized defending national culture as one of their main tasks. The warring parties sought to destroy everything that reminded them that different people, their neighbors and friends of a different religion were living there. Today, three decades after these conflicts, they are still prisoners of their attitude to history. The culture nevertheless brings them together and inspires them to understand themselves more and to cooperate better.

The scientific studies on drug delivery systems that transport drugs to the targeted tissues, at a certain rate and desired time intervals, have gained popularity. The main goal of the drug delivery and release systems is to maintain the drug level in the blood plasma by balancing the amount of active ingredient. In this study, pH and temperature sensitive drug carriers were prepared using chitosan as a biopolymer and clay as a natural material. The characterization of the prepared materials was performed for structural analysis by FT-IR and for morphological analysis by SEM instruments. The swelling properties of the prepared materials were investigated. In this work, Ranitidine-HCl was used as a model drug. The prepared drug carriers were first loaded with Ranitidine-HCl and release properties of the materials were investigated at two different temperatures (25oC, 37oC) and various pH medium. The data obtained from the experiments indicated that the maximum release of Ranitidine–HCl from the prepared sample was observed at pH=7,6 buffer solution at both temperatures by comparing buffer solutions. It has been shown that the materials prepared in this study are suitable carriers for the Ranitidine-HCl drug active ingredient.

Every organization is made up of employees who can be its great strength but also a weakness, and the results, quality of work and achievement of organizational goals are largely determined by the behavior of the people who make it up. One of the key factors that influence the behavior of people in general, as well as the behavior in the work organization and attitude towards work are motives. Starting from the fact that human behavior is driven by different motives, that different people have different structure of motives and needs, the aim of this research is aimed at conducting the segmentation of employees in selected businesses in Bosnia and Herzegovina, engaged in different types of activities and of different structures of equity, according to socio-demographic factors – gender, age of respondents, years of service, marital status, type of education, the amount of monthly income of employees and the amount of family monthly income of employees. Also, the goal is to determine whether there are significant differences in the motives of individual groups (segments) of employees and how such indicators can contribute to the creation of an adequate motivational strategy within the work organization

It is the fact that sexual deviations and delicts are present in all cultures and within all peoples during the whole history of mankind and this have always caused the attention of theoreticians in their quest for its roots. Having on mind this fact, we have analysed the family dynamics during early childhood of sexual delinquents through the search for the differences in perceived parental acceptance or rejection, family affective attachment and accepted script injunctions – in relation to healthy examinees. The research is based on sample of 42 examinees categorised in two groups: a group of sexual delinquents and a group of examinees from general population without psychological disorder diagnosis. The analyses of perceived index of parental acceptance is carried out by Rohner PAR-Q questionnaire, for the determination of affective attachment patterns we use modified Brennan questionnaire for the estimation of family affective attachment, while level and the nature of acquired script injunctions have been asnalysed by the Scale of script injunctions. The results show that there are statistically significant differences between the two groups regarding dominating patterns of family affective attachment with more dominant insecure attachment in the group of sexual offenders. Too, one of the characteristics of this group is above average exposure to the existence injunction, value injunction, Don`t be a child injunction, and health injunction, while differences regarding perceived index of parental acceptance/rejection are not statistically significant

The aim of this paper is to get acquainted with the process of integration of Bosnia and Herzegovina into the European Union. On May 26, 1999, the Commission presented a proposal to initiate the so-called Stabilization and Association Process. This was approved at the meeting of the Council of the European Union in Luxembourg on June 21, 1999. The Stabilization and Association Process was formalized at the Zagreb Summit in 2000, at which the Union reaffirmed its desire to contribute to the consolidation of democracy and to give decisive support to the process of reconciliation and cooperation between the countries of the Western Balkans. The term Western Balkans is political and is used to distinguish this group of countries from previous ones that have already established relations with the European Union. Methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, description, compilation and content analysis were used in the research. The research shows that Bosnia and Herzegovina still does not sufficiently meet the criteria relating to the stability of institutions guaranteeing democracy, the rule of law, human rights and respect for and protection of minorities, set by the Copenhagen European Council in 1993. Bosnia and Herzegovina must align its constitutional framework with European standards and ensure the functionality of its institutions in order to be able to take on the Union’s obligations. In this regard, it is necessary to reform the institutions so that they can effectively participate in decisionmaking at EU level and implement and enforce the acquis.

Managing the efficiency of a company and, in connection with that, the choice of the way of measuring efficiency is becoming more and more important, especially in the conditions of a modern business environment characterized by complexity, dynamism, uncertainty and heterogeneity. The company, in addition to being in different business environments, also has its own specifics, so the question arises what it means for a particular company to be efficient and what is an adequate model for measuring the efficiency of that company. In general, a good efficiency measurement system involves a set of performance measures, that is, a metric that quantifies efficiency and effectiveness. The paper presents a review of traditional and new integrated models for measuring the performance of enterprises in the function of control.
