| Abstract | Istraživanje je za cilj imalo ispitati povezanost dimenzija privrženosti (anksioznosti i izbjegavanja) sa depresivnošću, depresivnom ruminacijom, socioseksualnošću i agresivnošću te utvrditi postoji li povezanost agresivnosti i depresivnosti te depresivnosti i socioseksualnosti, uz provjeru razlika s obzirom na spol i seksualnu orijentaciju sudionika u svim navedenim varijablama te provjeru doprinosa navedenih varijabli u objašnjenju depresivnosti s obzirom na seksualnu orijentaciju sudionika. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 380 sudionika studentske populacije, koji su kategorizirani u pripadnike LGBT populacije (neheteroseksualne sudionike, N=75) i heteroseksualne sudionike (N=305). Sudionici su ispunili upitnik socioseksualnosti (SOI-R), skraćenu verziju Brennanova inventara u bliskim vezama (ECRI) autorica Kamenov i Jelić, kratki upitnik agresivnosti (ASQ), skalu depresivnosti (DASS-42) te skalu depresivne ruminacije (RRS). Utvrđena je značajna pozitivna povezanost dimenzija privrženosti (anksioznosti i izbjegavanja) sa depresivnošću, depresivnom ruminacijom, agresivnošću i socioseksualnošću, uz izraženiju povezanost dimenzije anksioznosti i depresivnosti. Također su utvrđene značajne pozitivne povezanosti depresivnosti i agresivnosti kao i depresivnosti i socioseksualnosti. Osim toga, utvrđene su razlike s obzirom na spol u dimenziji izbjegavanja, ukupnoj socioseksualnosti (i svim njezinim facetama – želje, stavovi, ponašanja) te u fizičkoj i verbalnoj agresivnosti. Mladići su socioseksualno nerestriktivniji, više izbjegavajući te fizički i verbalno agresivniji u odnosu na djevojke. Međutim, nisu utvrđene značajne razlike s obzirom na spol u ukupnoj agresivnosti, dimenziji anksioznosti, depresivnosti i depresivnoj ruminaciji. Nadalje, što se razlika s obzirom na seksualnu orijentaciju tiče, utvrđene su značajne razlike u ukupnoj socioseksualnosti i svim njezinim facetama (želje, stavovi i ponašanja), anksioznosti, depresivnosti, depresivnoj ruminaciji i fizičkoj agresivnosti. Pripadnici LGBT populacije socioseksualno su nerestriktivniji, anksiozniji, depresivniji, značajno skloniji depresivnoj ruminaciji i fizičkoj agresivnosti u odnosu na heteroseksualne sudionike. Konačno, depresivna ruminacija pokazala se pozitivnim značajnim prediktorom depresivnosti na poduzorku heteroseksualnih sudionika, dok su na poduzorku neheteroseksualnih sudionika (pripadnika LGBT populacije) depresivna ruminacija i ljutnja pozitivni značajni prediktori depresivnosti. Nije utvrđen značajan doprinos dimenzija privrženosti, socioseksualnostiukupne agresivnosti i njezinih triju komponenti (fizička i verbalna agresivnost te hostilnost) u objašnjenju depresivnosti kako kod heteroseksualnih tako i kod neheteroseksualnih sudionika. |
| Abstract (english) | The aim of the research was to examine the connection between the dimensions of attachment (anxiety and avoidance) with depression, depressive rumination, sociosexuality and aggressiveness, and to determine whether there is a connection between aggressiveness and depression and depression and sociosexuality, while checking for differences with regard to the gender and sexual orientation of the participants in all of the aforementioned variables and checking the contribution of the mentioned variables in the explanation of depression with regard to the sexual orientation of the participants. 389 participants of the student population took part in the research, who were categorized into members of the LGBT population (non-heterosexual participants, N=75) and heterosexual participants (N=305). The participants filled out the sociosexuality questionnaire (SOI-R), the shortened version of the Brennan Inventory in close relationships (ECRI) by Kamenov and Jelić, the short aggression questionnaire (ASQ), the depression subscale (SDD) and the depressive rumination scale (RRS). A significant positive association of the dimensions of attachment (anxiety and avoidance) with depression, depressive rumination, aggressiveness and sociosexuality was established, with a pronounced association of the dimensions of anxiety and depression. Significant positive associations between depression and aggression as well as depression and sociosexuality were also determined. In addition, gender differences were found in the dimension of avoidance, overall sociosexuality (and all its facets – desires, attitudes, behaviors) and in physical and verbal aggressiveness. Young men are sociosexually more non-restrictive, more avoidant and physically and verbally aggressive compared to girls. However, no significant gender differences were found in overall aggressiveness, anxiety dimension, depression and depressive rumination. Furthermore, as far as differences regarding sexual orientation are concerned, significant differences were found in total sociosexuality and all its facets (desires, attitudes and behaviors), anxiety, depression, depressive rumination and physical aggressiveness. Members of the LGBT population are sociosexually non-restrictive, more anxious, more depressed, significantly more prone to depressive rumination and physical aggression compared to heterosexual participants. Depressive rumination proved to be a positive significant predictor of depression in the subsample of heterosexual participants, while in the subsample of non-heterosexual participants (members of the LGBT population), depressive rumination and anger were positive significant predictors of depression. No significant contribution of the dimension of attachment, sociosexuality (with its facets concerning sexual behavior, attitudes and desires), overall aggressiveness and its three components (physical and verbal aggressiveness and hostility) in explaining depression in both heterosexual and non-heterosexual participants was found. |
