Popis: Cilj ovog istraživanja bio ispitati odnos između osobina ličnosti, privrženosti u romantičnim odnosima i mentalnog zdravlja. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 242 sudionika starijih od 18 godina. Istraživanje je provedeno online putem, a korišteni instrumenti su: Upitnik o sociodemografskim podacima, Petofaktorski upitnik ličnosti, Skala maladaptivnog prikrivenog narcizma, Modificirani Brennanov inventar iskustava u bliskim vezama te Skala depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa. Rezultati su pokazali da postoji statistički značajna pozitivna povezanost neuroticizma, vulnerabilnog narcizma te izbjegavajuće i anksiozne privrženosti u romantičnim odnosima s problemima mentalnog zdravlja. Nadalje, rezultati hijerarhijske regresijske analize su pokazali da su neuroticizam i vulnerabilni narcizam statistički značajni pozitivni prediktori problema mentalnog zdravlja, dok privrženost predviđa probleme mentalnog zdravlja iako njezine dimenzije individualno nisu značajne. Naposlijetku, provjeravan je medijacijski učinak privrženosti u romantičnim odnosima u međuodnosu između osobina ličnosti i mentalnog zdravlja. Rezultati su pokazali da anksiozna privrženost posreduje u odnosu neuroticizma i problema mentalnog zdravlja, kao i u odnosu vulnerabilnog narcizma i problema mentalnog zdravlja. Također, pronađen je medijacijski učinak izbjegavajuće privrženosti na odnos neuroticzma i problema mentalnog zdravlja, no, medijacijski učinak izbjegavajuće privrženosti na odnos vulnerabilnog narcizma i problema mentalnog zdravlja, nije pronađen. The aim of this research was to examine the relations between personality traits, attachment in romantic relationships and mental health. 242 participants over the age of 18 took part in the research. The research was conducted online and the instruments used were: Sociodemographic Data Questionnaire, Big Five Inventory, The Maladaptive Covert Narcissism Scale – MCNS, Modified Brennan Inventory of Experiences in Close Relationships and Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21). The results showed that there is a statistically significant positive relation between neuroticism, vulnerable narcissism and avoidant and anxious attachment in romantic relationships with mental health problems. Furthermore, the results of the hierarchical regression analysis showed that neuroticism and vulnerable narcissism are statistically significant positive predictors of mental health problems, while attachment predicts mental health problems, although its dimensions are not individually significant. Finally, the mediating effect of attachment in romantic relations was tested in the relation between personality traits and mental health. The results showed that anxious attachment mediates the relation between neuroticism and mental health problems, as well as the relations between vulnerable narcissism and mental health problems. Also, the mediation effect of avoidant attachment on the relation between neuroticism and mental health problems was found. However, the mediation effect of avoidant attachment on the relation between vulnerable narcissism and mental health problems was not found.
