AFEKTIVNA VEZANOST U DJETINJSTVU KAO PREDIKTOR STRESA, ANKSIOZNOSTI, DEPRESIVNOSTI I ADVERZIVNIH ISKUSTAVA KOD MLADIH

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.

PORODIČNO AFEKTIVNO VEZIVANJE I AGRESIVNOST KOD NEPSIHOTIČNIH POČINILACA NASILNIH KRIVIČNIH DELA

Problem agresije i agresivnosti veoma je aktuelan u naše vreme. Sama agresija nije nasilje, ali to postaje kada se ispolji kao kriminalni akt. Dosadašnja teoretska sagledavanja i konkretna istraživanja prirode nasilnog ponašanja bar u određenoj meri impliciraju da su mnogi poremećaji u strukturi ponašanja (između ostalog i nasilno, kriminalno ponašanje) jednim delom uslovljeni i poremećenim porodičnim odnosima. Aktuelno istraživanje, oslanjajući se na teoriju afektivnog vezivanja, imalo je za cilj da ispita da li postoje neke razlike unutar grupe nepsihotičnih počinilaca nasilja sa različitim obrascima porodične afektivne vezanosti u odnosu na vrstu i nivo agresivnosti. Ispitivanje je provedeno na uzorku od 62 ispitanika muškog pola, sa istorijom počinjenja nekog nasilnog krivičnog dela. U ispitivanju usvojenih obrazaca porodične afektivne vezanosti (PAV) korišćen je modifikovani Brenanov upitnik za procenjivanje PAV, dok su nivo i struktura agresivnosti ispitivani pomoću skale agresivnosti BPAG. Rezultati su pokazali da sigurno vezani ispitanici imaju najniži nivo agresivnosti po svim modalitetima koje meri korišćena skala u odnosu na ispitanike sa nesigurnim vezivanjem. Takođe, ispitanici sa okupiranim obrascem vezivanja pokazuju značajno veći nivo hostilnosti, a plašljivo vezani pokazuju značajno veći nivo besa, hostilnosti i ukupne agresivnosti. Između sigurno i odbacujuće vezanih nije nađena statistički značajna razlika.

INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP AS A FACTOR OF JOB SATISAFACTION

Job satisfaction is positive emotional state, which is result of evaluation of some work experience. It is a multidisciplinary phenomenon, which is influenced by multiple internal and external factors. In this paper, employee satisfaction or job satisfaction was observed as a dependent variable, while interpersonal relationships are defined as influencing factor, i.e. independent variable. Interpersonal relationships imply establishment of social relations and connections between individuals at work. Interpersonal relationships can be defined as the subjective experience of employee in interaction or connection with another person (colleagues or superiors). Factors such as gender, age, education, work experience and job position are included in the analysis as control variables. Main hypothesis in this paper states that positive interpersonal relationships have impact on employee satisfaction. The independent variable is divided into three segments, namely: communication and work climate, relationship with superiors and relationship with colleagues. Each segment of interpersonal relationships was separately tested in relation to the dependent variable. The base of this paper is an empirical research conducted in 2019. Based on the survey questionnaire, data from 143 employees in the surveyed company were collected. Data processing was performed on the basis of statistical software for social sciences-SPSS. Descriptive and correlation analysis were applied in the data analysis. All hypotheses tested were confirmed. Testing the hypotheses confirm that there is a statistically significant relationship between observed variables and that there is a moderate positive correlation, which implies that interpersonal relationship is a factor of job satisfaction. Main limitation of this research relates to the observation of relationship between variables in a single business entity. However, the coverage of all employees in the conducted research and the high response rate of employees (82%) provide a good basis for data analysis and giving some general conclusions. Detailed description of research methodology enables its repetition in other organizations.

BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA AND THE EUROPEAN UNION – STILL FAR AWAY FROM INTEGRATION

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.

SPECIFICITY OF RADIO ENVIRONMENT, ITS POTENTIALS AND THE ISSUE OF SURVIVAL

Radio survives despite the opinion that it is an outdated medium that is rapidly losing its audience. It is forgotten that radio is still a medium that addresses the widest layer of the audience. The fact that the audience pays attention and time to the Internet leaves only additional space for the development of increasingly popular forms of web radio that appeal to the younger generations. The radio journalist has changed his status and is becoming multidimensional, ready to go to the field, record, edit and address the audience. Radio may have lost its original form but with its convergent abilities it has a new chance to become among the media of first choice because young people in their loneliness increasingly appreciate intimacy, someone’s imaginary presence and the warmth of a voice. We will especially analyze radio area in Bosnia and Herzegovina which is still awaiting the implementation of radio digitalization in order to keep pace with changes in the world and the environment. During that time, it is necessary to provide all the preconditions for overcoming technological limitations.

TERRITORIAL DECENTRALIZATION AS A FACTOR OF DISPUTES ON CONFLICT OF JURISDICTION WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

The principle of separation of powers is one of the basic pillars of the rule of law, and its essence is to prevent abuse of power because the division of power does not exclude the possibility of intertwining competencies of different holders of state power. Precisely because of this, no matter in what form the division of power is realized, conflicts between different holders of power and encroachment on the competence of other holders of power are inevitable. Disputes about conflicts of jurisdiction arise under the influence of various factors, the most important of which is certainly the form of state organization, ie the degree of territorial decentralization and the way in which the division of power at the vertical level was achieved. Any form of decentralization, be it federal units, territorial autonomy or local self-government units, is necessarily a source of potential conflicts between central and non-central government. Therefore, the basic issue that arises in any form of decentralized state, and especially the federal one, is precisely the issue of the relationship between central and noncentral government. The paper pays special attention to Bosnia and Herzegovina, ie the issue of distribution of competencies as a factor of competition disputes and the role of the Constitutional Court in resolving these disputes and establishing clear boundaries between different holders of state power in the vertical.

DIGITAL ECONOMY DEVELOPMENT IN GEORGIA IN THE CONTEXT OF DIGITAL DIVIDE

The paper aims to review the digital evolution process in the Georgian economy and to evaluate potential gaps relative to other countries. Digital evolution is a multidimensional concept, therefore to underline the key sectors where the digital divide is substantial between the developed world and Georgia is essential for further, more specific research. The research’s major expected outcome serves to fill the local academic literature gap related to digital development’s role in the digital economy, therefore it can be a basis for upcoming research in this field in Georgia. This approach can be also used for other developing countries which are transforming to digital economies. It is answering the specific questions: Is there a digital gap between Georgia and other economies? And, which digital sectors are the most or least developed? Digital development is influenced by several factors. The research uses digital evolution indices to measure digital evolution in different sectors from demand conditions to institutional ecosystems.

BASICS OF AUTOMATION OF PROFILING OF HIGH-EFFICIENT INSERTS OF THE TOOL FOR THREAD MACHINING

Many modern threaded joints especially in the oil and gas industry, must satisfy high requirements for steel mechanical properties of which they are made. To ensure efficient threading of such hard-to-machine materials (ultimate strength is more than 1250 MPa), it is necessary to use carbide cutting inserts with the negative rake angle at its corner. However, modern manufacturers of such inserts make them only with a zero value of the rake angle. This is due to the difficulty of profiling of the insert cutting edge. This article proposes the basics of such inserts automatic profiling which is based on the algorithm developed by the authors. It includes two corrective calculations of the insert cutting edge profile, namely: the radial displacement of the corner and the tangential displacement of the area forming the crest of the thread. As a result, the computer application with the input parameter of the rake angle and output parameter of the upgraded profile of the insert cutting edge is received.

CONDUCTOMETRIC STUDY OF LIGAND STRUCTURE INFLUENCE ON THE Pb(II) COMPLEXATION WITH CROWN ETHERS

The conductometric study of ligand structure influence on the Pb(II) complexation with crown ethers in different solvents has been investigated. In this paper, the complexation reaction of macrocyclic ligand, 18-crown-6 (18C6), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6), and Pb(II) cation was studied in different solvents: dichloromethane (DCM) and 1,2- dichloroethane (1,2-DCE). The effects of surfactant structure (Triton X-100 and Triton X-45) on the conductivity of the Pb(II) complex with 18-crown-6 and dibenzo-18-crown-6 ether have been investigated. The conductance data showed that the stoichiometry of the complexes in most cases is 1:1(ML). It is also demonstrated that the influence of crown ethers is deeply affected by the organic solvent used. In the solvents studied, the stability of the resulting complexes showed higher stability in dichloromethane comparing with 1,2- dichloroethane. Macrocyclic ligand 18-crown-6 showed more suitable for complexation of Pb(II) ions compared to dibenzo-18-crown-6. Adding a surfactant affected the higher absolute values of the conductivity of systems, but not the change in the stoichiometric ratio between a metal ion and macrocyclic ligand.

CYBER CRIME IN PAKISTAN; DETECTION AND PUNISHMENT MECHANISM

“Cyber Crime in Pakistan; Detection and Punishment Mechanism” addresses improvement of public health and safety policies by focusing on enhancing knowledge about cybercrime, women victimization, the pattern of time spent on the internet, sexual harassment and cyber- bullying and the effect of socio- demographic factors on cybercrime. A quantitative, self-selected research study designed by the researcher and utilizing a voluntary, anonymous internet survey consisting of open and closed-ended questions targeted students attending large universities in Pakistan (N=400), based on Routine Activity Theory (RAT). The results were analyzed through SPSS via directing descriptive statistics, Cronbach’s alpha, and regression analysis to confirm the validity and internal consistency of data and verification of the hypotheses. Results depicted women represent the largest group impacted by cyber abuse. Single women, young adults, and employed students demonstrate increased rates of victimization. Frequent usage of social media may account for increased victimization for women. Time spent online and deficient knowledge of cyber protection measures are positively correlated with digital victimization. Respondents report on inadequate effective and affordable cyber protection and ineffective responses by agencies to cybercrime. Based on the results garnered, and supported by Public Policy Theory, Cybersecurity policies have been proposed to Pakistan’s government.
