Popis: Inglehartova modernizacijska teorija pretpostavlja da s društveno-ekonomskim razvojem dolazi i do promjena vrijednosti te se nakon duljeg razdoblja ekonomskog rasta uspostavlja postupni prijelaz s materijalističkih na postmaterijalističke vrijednosti. Cilj ovog istraživanja, koje se temelji na toj teoriji, bio je utvrditi odnos skupa varijabli što su ga činile religioznost, stavovi o nacionalizmu i o rodnim ulogama s postmaterijalističkim vrijednostima splitskih srednjoškolaca. Istraživanje je provedeno na prigodnom uzorku od 427 splitskih srednjoškolaca, 269 učenica i 158 učenika, prosječne dobi 17 godina. Iz rezultata proizlazi kako u ispitanom uzorku prevladava mješoviti tip vrijednosti (materijalističkih i postmaterijalistički). Između učenica i učenika utvrđene su statistički značajne razlike u mjerenim varijablama zbog čega su sve analize provedene odvojeno po spolu. Višestrukom regresijskom analizom utvrđeno je kako je model s postmaterijalističkim vrijednostima kao ishodišnom varijablom statistički značajan i kod srednjoškolki i kod srednjoškolaca. Diskriminativnom analizom dodatno je utvrđeno da religioznost i stavovi statistički značajno diskriminiraju skupine srednjoškolaca obaju spolova s različito izraženim stupnjem postmaterijalističkih vrijednosti (u poduzorku učenica najviše religioznost i stavovi o rodnim ulogama, a u poduzorku učenika najviše stavovi o nacionalizmu i stavovi o rodnim ulogama). Temeljni su nalaz ovog istraživanja utvrđene razlike između učenika i učenica na mjerama religioznosti i ispitanih stavova, kao i razlike u odnosima tih mjera s prihvaćanjem postmaterijalističkih vrijednosti. Postmaterijalističke vrijednosti u višem stupnju prihvaćaju učenice koje su manje religiozne, kao i učenici koji manje prihvaćaju stavove o nacionalizmu.
According to Inglehart's modernisation theory, socio-economic growth leads to changes in values. Following a longer period of economic growth, a gradual change from materialistic to post-materialistic values is established. The main goal of this study, which is based on Inglehart's theory, was to assess the relationship between post-materialistic values on one side and religiousness, attitudes towards nationalism, and attitudes towards gender roles on the other among high school students in the city of Split. The research was conducted on a convenience sample of 427 high school students from Split (there were 269 female students and 158 male students) with the average age of 17 years. The results indicated that the students from the sample had mixed materialistic and post-materialistic values. Statistically significant differences were found between male and female students in all measured variables. For this reason, analyses were conducted separately by gender. Using multiple regression analysis, it was established that the model with post-materialistic values as the outcome was statistically significant regardless of gender. Discriminative analysis additionally showed that the measured attitudes discriminated groups of students with different levels of post-materialistic values (most prominently, attitudes towards gender roles and religiousness among female students, and attitudes towards nationalism and gender roles among male students). The main finding of the study was that of a difference between male and female students in terms of measured religiousness and two sets of attitudes, as well as gender differences in the relationship between the measured religiousness and the measured attitudes on one side and post-materialistic values on the other. Higher post-materialistic values were associated with lower religiousness among female students and lower acceptance of nationalism among male students.
