Abstract

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi povezanost psihološkog kapitala, strategija suočavanja sa
stresom i sindroma izgaranja kod zagrebačkih studenata. U online istraživanju dobrovoljno je
sudjelovalo 280 redovnih studenata koji pohađaju javne i privatne fakultete u Gradu Zagrebu.
Za operacionalizaciju konstrukata korišten je Skraćeni upitnik psihološkog kapitala (UPK-12),
Skraćeni upitnik suočavanja sa stresom (COPE) te Oldenburški upitnik sagorijevanja (OLBI).
Podatci su prikupljeni putem Google Forms obrasca koji je poslan na e-mail i Facebook grupe.
Pronađena je značajna negativna korelacija psihološkog kapitala i obje dimenzije sindroma
izgaranja. Ustanovljena je značajna pozitivna povezanost psihološkog kapitala i suočavanja
usmjerenog na problem, te negativna povezanost sa izbjegavajućim suočavanjem, no nije
postojala povezanost u slučaju suočavanja usmjerenog na emocije. Također je utvrđena
značajna povezanost obje dimenzije izgaranja samo sa izbjegavajućim suočavanjem, dok u
slučaju ostalih kategorija strategija suočavanja nema povezanosti. Hijerarhijske regresijske
analize pokazale su da strategije suočavanja sa stresom i psihološki kapital zajedno objašnjavaju
46% varijance iscrpljenosti te 32,4% varijance otuđenosti kao dvije dimenzije sindroma
izgaranja. Značajnim prediktorom kod iscrpljenosti pokazalo se suočavanje izbjegavanjem i
psihološki kapital, dok se kod otuđenosti značajnim pokazao samo psihološki kapital. Rezultati
su djelomično u skladu s očekivanjima. Unatoč ograničenjima rezultati nude dodatnu potvrdu
odnosa promatranih konstrukta te okvir za nastavak istraživanja tih konstrukata u Hrvatskoj.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between psychological capital, coping
strategies and burnout syndrome in 280 Zagreb university students. Undergraduate students
attending public and private faculties in the City of Zagreb voluntarily participated in the online
research. The Abbreviated Psychological Capital Questionnaire (UPK-12), the Abbreviated
Stress Coping Questionnaire (COPE) and the Oldenburg Combustion Questionnaire (OLBI)
were used to operationalize the constructs. Data was collected through the Google Forms tool
via email and Facebook groups. A significant negative correlation was found between
psychological capital and two dimensions of the burnout syndrome. A significant positive
correlation was found between psychological capital and problem-oriented coping, and a
negative correlation with avoidant coping, but there was no correlation in the case of emotionfocused coping. A significant correlation was also found between both dimensions of burnout
only with the avoidant coping style, while there was no corelation in the case of other strategies.
Hierarchical regression analyzes showed that coping strategies and psychological capital
together explain 46% of the variance of exhaustion and 32.4% of the variance of detachment
which are two dimensions of the burnout syndrome. Coping with avoidance and psychological
capital proved to be a significant predictor of exhaustion, while only psychological capital
proved to be significant in pedicting detachment. The results are partly in line with expectations.
Despite the limitations, the results offer additional confirmation of the relationship of the
observed constructs and they set a framework for further research of these constructs in Croatia.
