Abstract

Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati odnos samosuosjećanja, atribucija i mentalnog zdravlja i njihovih
sastavnica kod adolescenata. Osim toga, promatrao se i doprinos atribucijskih stilova
(globalnosti, stabilnosti, vrednovanja sebe i negativnih posljedica) i samosuosjećanja (blagosti
prema samome sebi, dijeljene ljudskosti, usmjerene svjesnosti, samoosuđivanja, izolacije i
pretjerane identifikacije) u objašnjavanju mentalnog zdravlja. U online istraživanju sudjelovalo
je 322 sudionika u dobi od 18 do 22 godine. Sudionici su ispunjavali upitnik koji se sastojao od
sociodemografskih pitanja, COVID upitnika, Ljestvice samosuosjećanja, Upitnika mentalnog
zdravlja te Upitnika kognitivnih stilova - vrlo kratke verzije. Dobiveni rezultati ukazuju na
pretežito osrednju razinu mentalnog zdravlja, samosuosjećanja i sklonosti negativnim
atribucijama. Utvrđene su značajne spolne razlike u ukupnoj razini samosuosjećanja, na način da
ga mladići imaju više te se pokazalo da su, unatoč nepronalasku razlika u ukupnim atribucijama,
mladići skloniji globalnijim negativnim atribucijama i očekivanju negativnijih posljedica u
odnosu na djevojke. Kao što je i pretpostavljeno, samosuosjećanje i mentalno zdravlje bili su
značajno pozitivno povezani, te je oboje bilo značajno negativno povezano s negativnim
atribucijama. Od četiriju sastavnica atribucije, stabilnost i negativne posljedice su se pokazale
značajnim negativnim prediktorima u prvome koraku, no izgubile su značajnost uključivanjem
sastavnica samosuosjećanja u drugome koraku. Od šest sastavnica samosuosjećanja, značajnim
pozitivnim prediktorima pokazale su se blagost prema samome sebi, rekodirana izolacija i
dijeljena ljudskost. Dobiveni rezultati doprinose razumijevanju odnosa pozitivnog mentalnog
zdravlja, samosuosjećanja i atribucija te mogu poslužiti kao teorijska potpora za intervencije
vezane za ovo područje.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between self-compassion, attributional
styles and mental health in adolescents along with their components. Additionally, the role of
each component of self-compassion (self-kindness, common humanity, mindfulness, selfjudgement, isolation and over-identification) and attributions (globality, stability, implicated selfworth and negative consequences) in predicting mental health was also analyzed. 322
participants aged 18 to 22 participated in the online survey. Participants filled out a form which
consisted of sociodemographic questions, COVID questionnaire, Self-compassion scale, Mental
health continuum - short form and Cognitive styles questionnaire - very short form. Results
indicated moderate levels of self-compassion, attributions and mental health in participants.
Furthermore, gender differences in self-compassion were confirmed, meaning that male
participants had higher total levels of self-compassion compared to female participants, and even
though significant gender differences attribution total were not found, male participants had
higher scores on globality and negative consequences subscales. As expected, self-compassion
and mental health were found to be positively correlated, and negatively correlated with negative
attributions. Of four attributional components, stability and negative consequences were revealed
to be significant negative predictors in the first step, but losing their significance with inclusion
of self-compassion components in the second step of the analysis. In regard to six components of
self-compassion, self-kindness, recoded isolation and common humanity were significant
positive predictors in the second step of the analysis. Obtained results contribute to a better
understanding of the relationship between positive mental health, self-compassion and
attributions in older adolescents, so that they can be used as theoretical support for related
interventions.
