| Sažetak | Emocionalna inteligencija je konstrukt u psihologiji, koji ima veliku važnost u životu suvremenog čovjeka te se stoga u novije vrijeme sve više stavlja u fokus istraživanja od strane istraživača, a posebno je zanimljiva veza s različitim oblicima ovisnosti. Iako je sama priroda veze i dalje relativno neotkrivena, dosadašnjim istraživanjima je utvrđena povezanost emocionalne inteligencije i poremećaja ovisnosti. Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati odnos emocionalne inteligencije te korištenja različitih sredstava ovisnosti (droga, cigareta, alkohola, kockanja, interneta te ovisnosti o vježbanju). U ovom istraživanju sudjelovalo je 338 ispitanika, od toga 212 žena te 126 muškaraca, prosječne dobi 26 godina, pri čemu su korišteni sljedeći mjerni instrumenti: Upitnik emocionalne kompetentnosti UEK-45, Skala ovisnosti o vježbanju te upitnik koji se sastojao od pitanja prilagođenih ovom istraživanju čiji odgovori upućuju na učestalost korištenja sredstava ovisnosti. Dobiveni rezultati u ovom istraživanju ukazuju kako više žena konzumira cigarete te da ih više i učestalije koriste društvene mreže, dok je više muškaraca koji i učestalije igraju igre na sreću te učestalije konzumiraju alkohol. Nadalje, utvrđene su razlike između muškaraca i žena u sposobnosti regulacije i upravljanja emocijama, pri čemu muškarci iskazuju bolju sposobnost regulacije i upravljanja emocijama u odnosu na žene, ali su muškarci i žene podjednaki u emocionalnoj kompetentnosti, sposobnosti uočavanja i razumijevanja emocija te sposobnosti imenovanja i izražavanja emocija. Oni koji ne konzumiraju cigarete bolji su u regulaciji i upravljanju emocijama, dok kod onih koji konzumiraju droge, odnosno ne konzumiraju droge te onih koji igraju igre na sreću te kod onih koji ne igraju igre na sreću nema razlike u emocionalnoj inteligenciji. Što je emocionalna kompetentnost i sposobnost regulacije i upravljanja emocijama veća to je učestalije igranje igara na sreću, dok je izraženija ovisnost o vježbanju povezana je s većom emocionalnom kompetentnošću, odnosno boljom sposobnošću uočavanja i razumijevanja emocija, izražavanja i imenovanja emocija te reguliranja i upravljanja emocijama. |
| Sažetak (engleski) | Emotional intelligence is construct in psychology, which has a great impact on the life of modern people, and therefore it's being a more often object of researchers’ focus, and its relation with various forms of addictions is particularly interesting. Although the relationship between emotional intelligence and addictions is still relatively undiscovered, so far links between lower emotional intelligence and addiction disorders have been established. This study aimed to examine the relationship between emotional intelligence and of different addictive behaviors (drugs, cigarettes, alcohol, gambling, internet and addiction to exercise). The survey involved 338 participants, of whom 212 were women and 126 men, aged on average M=25.94, using following measuring instruments: Questionnaire of emotional competence (UEK-45, Takšić, 2002), Exercise Dependence Scale-21 (EDS-21; Hausenblas and Symons Downs, 2002) and questionnaire that consisted of questions tailored to this survey, where the responses indicated the frequency of addiction substance abuse.
The results obtained in this study indicate that more women smoke cigarettes and that more of them use and more frequently use social networks, while men are more likely to gamble and drink alcohol. Furthermore, differences were found between man and women in their ability to regulate and manage emotions, where men express better ability, but also men and women are equal in the matter of emotional competence, ability to perceive and understand emotions, and the ability to name and express emotions. Those who do not smoke cigarettes are better at regulating and managing emotions, while there is no difference in the emotional intelligence between those who consume drugs and those who don't consume drugs and those who gamble and those who don't gamble. Greater emotional competence and the ability to regulate and manage emotions are associated with more frequent gambling. If a person is more addicted to exercising, he/she has greater emotional competence, i.e., better ability to observe and understand emotions, better ability to express and name emotions, and better ability to regulate and manage emotions. |
