Title Odnos ispitne anksioznosti, neadaptivnog perfekcionizma i samopoštovanja kod studenata Title (english) Test anxiety, maladaptive perfectionism and self-esteem in students Author Karmela Biočić Mentor Marina Nekić (mentor)Committee member Marina Nekić (predsjednik povjerenstva)Committee member Irena Burić (član povjerenstva)Committee member Lozena Ivanov (član povjerenstva)Granter University of Zadar Defense date and country 2023-09-28, Croatia Scientific / art field, SOCIAL SCIENCES Abstract Brojna istraživanja provedena na populaciji studenata, odnosno mladih, ukazuju na značajan porast psiholoških tegoba poput ispitne anksioznosti, ali i perfekcionizma te sniženog samopoštovanja. Ovakve tegobe ostavljaju značajne posljedice na psihološko i socijalno funkcioniranje pojedinca, kao i na akademski uspjeh. Ispitna anksioznost je pojam koji predstavlja psihološko stanje pretjerane uzrujanosti, odnosno tjeskobe, koje se javlja u ispitnim situacijama. Pojam ispitne anksioznosti istraživači često dovode u vezu s razinama samopoštovanja i perfekcionizmom. Samopoštovanje može se definirati kao uvjerenje pojedinca koje ima o svojim sposobnostima i vrijednostima, dok se perfekcionizam može objasniti kao težnja za savršenom izvedbom i nepogrešivošću u svim domenama života. Ovo istraživanje bavilo se posebnom vrstom perfekcionizma nazvanom neadaptivni perfekcionizam, koju karakterizira izrazite perfekcionističke težnje i negativna perfekcionistička zabrinutost, odnosno usmjerenost na pogreške i samokritičnost. Prilikom ispitivanja ispitne anksioznosti, perfekcionizma i samopoštovanja, istraživači su utvrdili postojanje spolnih razlika. Naime, istraživači vjeruju kako žene doživljavaju veće razine ispitne anksioznosti i neadaptivnog perfekcionizma te pokazuju manje razine samopoštovanja od muškaraca. U provedenom istraživanju cilj je bio ispitati odnos ispitne anksioznosti, neadaptivnog perfekcionizma i samopoštovanja kod studenata te utvrditi postojanje spolnih razlika u navedenim konstruktima. U istraživanju je korišten prigodni uzorak studenata Republike Hrvatske (152 sudionica ženskog spola, a 44 sudionika muškog spola) online putem. Utvrđena je statistički značajna mala povezanost između ispitne anksioznosti i samopoštovanja, dok je dok je neadaptivni perfekcionizam bio pozitivno umjereno povezan s ispitnom anksioznošću, odnosno negativno umjereno povezan sa samopoštovanjem kod oba spola. Osim toga utvrđene su statistički značajne razlike u tim konstruktima s obzirom na spol. Odnosno, studentice su u prosjeku imale niže samopoštovanje, viši neadaptivni perfekcionizam i višu ispitnu anksioznost od studenata.
Abstract (english) Numerous studies conducted on the population of students, i.e. young people, indicate a significant increase in psychological problems such as test anxiety, but also perfectionism and lowered self-esteem. Such ailments have significant consequences on the psychological and social functioning of the individual, as well as on academic success. Test anxiety is a term that represents a psychological state of excessive excitement, which occurs in test situations. Exam anxiety is often linked to lowered self-esteem, and maladaptive perfectionism. Self-esteem is often described as individual's belief about his abilities and values, while perfectionism can be explained as the pursuit of perfect performance in all domains of life. This research examined a special type of perfectionism – maladaptive perfectionism, which is characterized by strong perfectionistic aspirations and negative perfectionistic concern. In general, it is commonly believed among researchers that women tend to experience higher levels of test anxiety and maladaptive perfectionism while displaying lower levels of self-esteem compared to men. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between test anxiety, maladaptive perfectionism, and self-esteem among students and to ascertain whether gender disparities exist within these aspects. The study was conducted with a convenient sample of students hailing from the Republic of Croatia, with 152 female participants and 44 male participants participating via online platforms. The research revealed a significant correlation between test anxiety, negative perfectionism, and self-esteem, as well as disparities in these aspects based on gender. On average, female students had lower self-esteem, higher maladaptive perfectionism and higher test anxiety than male students.
