Title Korelati procesa samootkrivanja u romantičnim odnosima Title (english) Correlates of self-disclosure in romantic relationships Author Marta Bagić Mentor Andreja Brajša-Žganec (mentor)Committee member Tihana Brkljačić (predsjednik povjerenstva)Committee member Josip Bošnjaković (član povjerenstva)Committee member Andreja Brajša-Žganec (član povjerenstva)Granter Catholic University of Croatia Defense date and country 2021-01-25, Croatia Scientific / art field, SOCIAL SCIENCES Abstract Romantični odnosi čine vitalan dio čovjekovog života jer zadovoljavaju temeljne ljudske potrebe za pripadanjem i bliskošću. Bliskost se kao glavno obilježje romantičnih odnosa ostvaruje putem samootkrivanja, odnosno razmjenom informacija o sebi, uključujući vlastite stavove, osjećaje i prošla iskustva. Dosadašnja istraživanja u području romantičnih odnosa i samootkrivanja su došla do brojnih saznanja kako bi stvorila sveobuhvatnu sliku i razumijevanje konstrukata no i dalje postoje određene nedoumice koje ostavljaju prostor za daljnja znanja. Samootkrivanje se povezivalo sa stilom privrženosti vlastitom partneru pri čemu i dalje postoje nedosljednosti u kontekstu nesigurnih stilova te manjak podataka o povezanosti dimenzija samootkrivanja i privrženosti. Nadalje, povezivalo se sa globalnim samopoštovanjem i zadovoljstvom u vezi koji su se identificirali kao značajni korelati te su se analizirale i spolne razlike koje ukazuju na određene nedosljednosti. Cilj ovog istraživanja je bio utvrditi različite psihološke aspekte procesa samootkrivanja u romantičnim odnosima, odnosno povezanost samootkrivanja sa dimenzijama privrženosti, globalnim samopoštovanjem, zadovoljstvom odnosom te duljinom veze kod muškaraca i žena mlađe odrasle dobi. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 415 osoba mlađe odrasle dobi u rasponu od 18 do 25 godina. Korišteni upitnici u istraživanju su bili: Rosenbergova skala samopoštovanja (RSE), Revidirana skala samootkrivanja (RSDS), Skala procjene kvalitete veze (RAS) te za procjenu privrženosti partneru skraćena verzija Brennanovog Inventara iskustva u vezama (IIBV). Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju kako se razine dubine i količine vremena značajno povećavaju s duljim bivanjem u vezi te kako se muškarci i žene ne razlikuju značajno u ukupnoj razini samootkrivanja vlastitom partneru. Pronađene su značajne pozitivne povezanosti samootkrivanja i zadovoljstva u vezi, kao i globalnog samoopoštovanja. Osobe sa izraženom anksioznom i izbjegavajućom privrženosti imaju tendenciju značajno manjeg samootkrivanja vlastitom partneru.
Abstract (english) Romantic relationships have crucial importance in one's lifespan because they satisfy the most important human needs, ones for intimacy, and belonging. Intimacy, as one of the main characteristics of romantic relationships, is realized via self-disclosure. Self-disclosure is a process of exchanging information about oneself, including personal opinions, thoughts, and past experiences. Previous research of romantic relationships, so far, has come to valuable findings that help better and comprehensive understanding of it and also have left space for further research. Self-disclosure is correlated with adult attachment but there are still some inconsistencies about correlations with insecure attachments and with different dimensions of self-disclosure and attachment. Furthermore, self-disclosure was correlated with global self-esteem and relationship satisfaction which were both identified as significant correlates. Also, research indicated some inconsistent gender differences in self-disclosure. This study aimed to examine some psychological aspects of self-disclosure, respectively correlations between self-disclosure and attachment dimensions, global self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, and longevity of relationships in young adults. A total of 415 young adults participated in the study. The following questionnaires were used: Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSE), Revised Self-Disclosure Scale (RSDS), Relationship Assessment Scale; RAS and abbreviated version of Experiences in Close Relationship Inventory (IIBV) as a measure of adult attachment. The results of this study indicate that the depth and amount of self-disclosure significantly increase during a longer period of time in a relationship and that there is no significant difference between men and women in self-disclosure. Also, there is a significant positive correlation between self-disclosure and relationship satisfaction, as well as global self-esteem. Avoidant and anxious attachment was found to be correlated with significantly lower levels of self-disclosure.
