Abstract

Ovo istraživanje nastoji istražiti i objasniti iskustva i značenje romantičnih veza jednojajčanih blizanaca te načine na koje doživljavaju mogućnosti romantičnih veza u odnosu sa svojim blizanačkim parom. Kako bi dobili sveobuhvatan uvid u temu, koristeći se teorijom ljubavi, privrženosti i interakcija objašnjene su teorijske postavke rada. Istraživanje je provedeno metodom polu-strukturiranog intervjua na šest jednojajčanih blizanaca od kojih je troje u vezi, a njihov blizanac nije te troje koje nisu u vezi, a njihov blizanac jest. Ovakav je uzorak uzet kako bi se obuhvatila oba iskustva takvog odnosa. Također, jedan od uvjeta uzorka je bio da blizanac koji je u vezi, nije u njoj duže od pet godina. Istraživanje počiva na fenomenološkom pristupu i kvalitativnog je tipa. Povod za istraživanjem sažima se u pretpostavci da ulaskom treće osobe, to jest partnera u blizanački odnos, dolazi do njegove promjene, a također se htjelo ispitati kakav je odnos društva prema takvoj situaciji. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju kako odnos blizanaca u vidu kvalitete ostaje nepromijenjen, a romantična je veza jednog od blizanaca bitna stavka za oba blizanca. Također, velika se važnost pridaje odnosu partnera sa blizanačkim parom i od strane blizanca koji je u vezi, ali i onog koji nije. Pokazalo se da obitelj najviše naglašava i pridaje važnost činjenici da je jedan od blizanaca u vezi, a drugi nije.

Abstract (english)

This research explores and explains the experiences and meaning of romantic relationships of identical twins and the ways in which they experience the possibilities of romantic relationships in relation to their twin pair. In order to get a comprehensive insight into the topic, the theoretical assumptions of the work were explained through the theory of love, attachment and interaction. The research was conducted using a semi-structured interview method on six identical twins, three of whom are in a relationship and their twin is not, and three who are not in a relationship and their twin is. This sample was taken in order to cover both experiences of such a relationship. Also, one of the conditions of the sample was that the twin who is in a relationship, has not been in it for more than five years. The research is based on a phenomenological approach and is qualitative in nature. The reason for the research can be summed up in the assumption that the entry of a third person, that is, a partner in a twin relationship, changes it, and we also wanted to examine the attitude of society towards such a situation. The results of the research show that the quality of the relationship between twins remains unchanged, and the romantic relationship of one of the twins is an important item for both twins. Also, great importance is attached to the relationship of the partner with the twin pair, both from the side of the twin who is in a relationship, and from the side of the one who is not. It was proved that the family most emphasizes and attaches importance to the fact that one of the twins is in a relationship and the other is not.
