Abstract

Mediji su danas postali neizostavnim dijelom našeg života. Njihov ubrzani razvoj
možemo povezati s globalizacijom i značajnim tehnološkim napretkom. Možemo reći kako
nam mediji uvelike olakšavaju život time što nam omogućuju brz pristup informacijama,
povezanost s ostatkom svijeta, kao i olakšanu komunikaciju. Ipak, neki autori smatraju kako
utjecaj medija na medijske korisnike nije uvijek pozitivan. Integracijom u naš svakodnevni
život, mediji imaju utjecaj na mnoge aspekte našeg života – bila to komunikacija, način
razmišljanja ili naše ponašanje, pa stoga i učinci medija mogu biti značajniji. U ovom radu
opisali smo i analizirali povijest razvoja novih medija i učinke medija na međuljudsku
komunikaciju. Također, prikazali smo medije kao sredstvo zabave i učenja te ukazali na
potrebu medijskog obrazovanja korisnika kako bi negativni učinci medija postali slabiji. Cilj
je ovog rada istražiti kako i u kojoj mjeri novi mediji, odnosno njihovo učestalo korištenje,
utječu na komunikaciju između djece i njihovih roditelja. U tu svrhu, proveli smo istraživanje
koristeći kvantitativnu metodu – anketu. Od ispitanika smo zatražili da odgovore na pitanja o
svojim medijskim navikama te o medijskim navikama svoje djece, ako ih imaju. Cilj nam je
bio od ispitanika dobiti njihovu samoprocjenu medijskih učinaka na njih same i na njihove
ukućane. Na kraju, predstavljeni su rezultati ankete provedene na uzorku od 563 ispitanika.

Abstract (english)

The media have become an indispensable part of our lives today. The accelerated
development of the media can be linked to globalization and significant technological
advancements. One can assume that the media make our lives much easier because they allow
us quick access to information, also connectivity with the rest of the world, as well as
facilitated communication. Nevertheless, some authors asume that the impact of the media on
media users is not always positive. By integrating into our everyday lives, the media has an
impact on many aspects of our lives – such as interpersonal communication, way of thinking
or our behaving, so the effects of the media can be more significant. In this master thesis, we
described the history of new media development and the effects of media on interpersonal
communication. Furthermore, we presented media as a source of entertainment and education.
Also, we pointed out the importance of acquiring media literacy in order to minimise negative
media effects. This thesis is an initial attempt to investigate how new media and their frequent
use affect the communication between children and their parents. For this purpose, we
conducted a research using a quantitative method – a poll. Respondents were asked to answer
questions about their media habits and their children's media habits, if they have any children.
The aim was to obtain from the respondents their self-assessment of media effects on
themselves and their family members. At the end, we presented the results of a survey
conducted on a sample of 563 respondents.
