Abstract Društvena mreža Instagram svakim danom je sve popularnija među mladim ljudima. S obzirom na rastući broj ljudi koji svakoga dana otvore svoj profil na Instagramu, raste i broj istraživanja kojima se pokušava ispitati uloga Instagrama u ljubavnim vezama. Od velikog interesa je pojava tzv. suvremene ljubomore, odnosno ljubomore u online svijetu u kontekstu društvenih mreža. Međutim, nepostojanje mjernih instrumenata kojima bi se pokušala istražiti ljubomora u kontekstu Instagrama, kao i generalno nedostatka istraživanja koja uključuju ovu društvenu mrežu, u ovom su se istraživanju kao polazište i metoda koristile studije rađene u kontekstu Facebooka, što se čini opravdanim zbog sličnosti ovih dviju društvenih mreža. S obzirom da većina istraživanja koja se bave Facebook ljubomorom uključuje heteroseksualne sudionike u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom uz korištenje prediktorskih varijabli kao što su spol, privrženost i karakteristike korištenja Facebooka, u ovom istraživanju se pokušao dati dodatni doprinos razumijevanju pojave ljubomore u kontekstu Instagrama tako da su se uključile varijable seksualne orijentacije te sudionike samce uz dodatne varijable kao što su socioseksualnost, relacijska nesigurnost, zadovoljstvo vezom i dodatne karakteristike korištenja Instagrama. Glavni cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati spolne razlike u Instagram ljubomori kod osoba heteroseksualne i homoseksualne orijentacije i utvrditi doprinos osobnih karakteristika, karakteristika ljubavne veze i karakteristika korištenja Instagrama u objašnjenju Instagram ljubomore kod heteroseksualnih i homoseksualnih žena i muškaraca u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom. Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 794 sudionika, a uzorak je podijeljen s obzirom na spol i status veze od čega je 635 heteroseksualnih žena (430 u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom; 205 samica), 104 heteroseksualnih muškarca (53 u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom; 51 samac), 35 homoseksualnih žena (20 u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom; 15 samica) i 20 homoseksualnih muškaraca (8 u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom i 12 samaca). Za potrebe istraživanja primijenje su sljedeće modificirane skale: Skala Facebook ljubomore, Korištenje društvenih mreža za održavanje profila i društvenih kontakata, Skala intenziteta korištenja Facebooka, Upitnik strukture veza, Skala procjene veze, Skala relacijske nesigurnosti i Revidirani upitnik socioseksualne orijentacije, dok je čestina prijavljivanja na Instagram mjerena pomoću jedne čestice. Konfirmatornom faktorskom analizom potvrđena je jednofaktorska struktura modificirane Skale Facebook ljubomore u kontekstu Instagrama. Istraživanjem je utvrđeno kako su heteroseksualne žene u odnosu na muškarce ljubomornije u kontekstu Instagrama dok kod osoba homoseksualne orijentacije nisu utvrđene značajne razlike s obzirom na spol. U uzorku sudionika u ozbiljnoj vezi s jednom osobom hijerarhijskom regresijskom analizom pomoću pet prediktorskih varijabli objašnjeno je 24% varijance Instagram ljubomore. Najznačajnijim prediktorom se istaknula anksiozna privrženost. Nadalje, među značajnim prediktorima utvrđeni su i izbjegavajuća privrženost, komponenta stava socioseksualne orijentacije, zadovoljstvo vezom i samoprezentiranje i održavanje profila.
Abstract (english) Every day Instagram is becoming more and more popular among young people. With the growing number of people who create Instagram account, grows the number of studies with goal to examine the role of Instagram in love relationships. Online jealousy which refers to jealousy in the context of social networks is nowadays of great interest. However lack of measuring instruments and lack of research in the context of Instagram, research findings and measuring instruments in this study are based on those designed for research purposes in the context of Facebook due to similarities between these two social networks. Given that most researches on Facebook jealousy involve heterosexual participants in a serious relationship, using independent variables such as geneder, attachment style and Facebook usage characteristic, this study sought to extend the findings to homosexual orientation and participants who are single using additional independent variables such as sociosexuality, relational uncertainty, relationship satisfaction and additional Instagram usage characteristics. The main objective of this research was to examine the factor structure of the modified Facebook jealousy scale in the context of Instagram, to examine gender differences in Instagram jealousy within heterosexual and homosexual orientation and to determine the contribution of personal characteristics, love relationship characteristics and the characteristic of using Instagram in explaining Instagram jealousy for heterosexual and homosexual men and women in a serious relationship. This study was conducted on a sample of 794 participants divided by gender and relationship status, of which 635 were heterosexual women (430 in a serious relationship; 205 singles), 104 heterosexual men (53 in a serious relationship; 51 single), 35 homosexual women (20 in a serious relationship; 15 singles) and 20 homosexual men (8 in a serious relationship; 12 singles). For this research were used following modified scales: The Facebook Jealousy Scale, Social Network Sites Use For Profile Maintenance And Grooming, Facebook Intensity Scale, Relationship Structures Questionnaire, The Relationship Assessment Scale, Relational Uncertainty and Revised Sociosexual Orientation Inventory while the frequency of logging up on Instagram was measured via single claim. Confirmatory factor anaysis confirmed the one-factor structure of the modified Facebook Jealousy Scale in the context of Instagram with slightly worse model fit. Results in this study showed that heterosexual women, compared to heterosexual men were more jealous in the context of Instagram, while no significant gender difference was found within the homosexual orientation. Within a sample of participants in a serious relationship hierarchical regression analysis using five predictors explained 24% of the variance of Instagram jealousy. Anxiety attachment was the most important predictor. Furthemore, avoidance attachment, sociosexual attitude, relationship satisfaction and profile maintenance were also significant predictors.
