The aim of this study was to validate the Serbian adaptation of the Collett-Lester Fear of Death Scale–Revised (CLFODS-R). On a sample comprised of 263 participants (66% females), aged between 18 and 65 years, along with CLFODS-R, Big Five Plus Two-70 and PANAS were applied. Results support originally proposed factor structure of the scale, with differentiation of four dimensions: fear of death of self, fear of dying of self, fear of death of others, and fear of dying of others. All four dimensions significantly correlate with negative affect and neuroticism, while correlations with positive affect and extraversion are not significant, supporting the validity of the scale. Furthermore, females show higher scores on all dimensions, while older and participants with experience of the death of a close person show a lower fear of death in some of its aspects. The results suggested that the Serbian adaptation of CLFODS-R is a valid and reliable measure, and that it may find application in further examinations of fear of death.

Mitovi o silovanju predstavljaju iskrivljena uverenja o silovanju (o uzrocima, kontekstu, posledicama, počiniocima, žrtvama i njihovoj interakciji), koja služe negiranju, trivijalizaciji ili opravdavanju te forme seksualnog nasilja i doprinose čestom netolerantnom i neprijateljskom odnosu prema silovanim osobama. S obzirom na činjenicu da taj fenomen u domaćoj nauci do sada nije dobio zasluženu pažnju, osnovni cilj sprovedenog pilot-istraživanja podrazumevao je konstrukciju upitnika za registrovanje prihvatanja pilot-istraživanja o silovanju. U radu je prikazan novokonstruisani Upitnik za ispitivanjemitova o silovanju i rezultati ispitivanja njegovog latentnog prostora merenja kao psihometrijske karakteristike upitnika. Drugi cilj pilot-istraživanja podrazumevao je mapiranje rasprostranjenosti mitova o silovanju na aktuelnom uzorku iz Srbije. Uzorak od 482 ispitanika prigodnog je karaktera. Dobijeni rezultati sugerišu da je Upitnik za ispitivanjemitova o silovanju pouzdan merni instrument, sačinjen od visoko reprezentativnih i validnih stavki. Na aktuelnom uzorku Upitnik se pokazao kao unidimenzionalna mera. U diskusiji je detaljno prikazana raširenost različitih grupa mitova o silovanju na uzorku ove pilot-studije. Ključne reči: prihvatanje mitova o silovanju, faktorska struktura, psihometrijske karakteristike. Uvod Silovanje je traumatsko iskustvo sa izuzetno razarajućim fizičkim i psihičkim posledicama po žrtve. Krivični zakonik Republike Srbije silovanje definiše kao prinudnu obljubu ili sa njom izjednačen čin koji uključuje upotrebu sile i pretnju telu i/ili životu osobe (Krivični Zakonik Srbije, 2013).

In order to shed light on the intrapersonal mechanisms that underlie the teaching in the blended learning environment, which implies the integration of complementary face-to-face and online approaches, we focused on the relationship between teachers? self-efficacy and motivation for teaching, with reference to the mediating role of teachers? emotional experiences. The sample included 341 subject teachers from Serbian primary schools, who use the blended learning model in teaching (84% female; average age 43.97years). The Teachers' Sense of Efficacy Scale, Emotions in Teaching Inventory -Revised, and Autonomous Motivation for Teaching Scale were used to examine the variables of interest. The overall fit of the mediated model to the data was adequate, confirming the mediating role of teachers? emotions in the relationship between the studied motivational constructs. The results indicate that the motivation for teaching in a blended learning environment relies on self-efficacy in instructional strategies and self-efficacy in classroom management, which partially act through the emotions concerning the experience of tension.
