“…In support of this approach, several studies have suggested that the experience of pleasurable events was associated with more positive life satisfaction (Diener et al 1999;McCullough et al 2000), and reduced levels of depressive and anxiety symptoms (Cheng 1997;Sharah et al 2003). On the other hand, the experience of undesirable events was negatively related to life satisfaction (Reich and Zautra 1981;Diener et al 1999) and positively related to depressive and anxiety symptoms (Cheng 1997;Sharah et al 2003). Several studies have examined the interaction between positive and negative life events and reported that experience of favorable events possibly buffered the effect of adverse events (Cohen et al 1987).…”

“…U literaturi se registruje samo 11 mera namenjenih adolescentima (npr. Burnett & Fanshawe, 1997;Cheng, 1997). Dodatno, za rane verzije mera broja negativnih događaja u adolescenciji je nuđeno malo informacija o psihometrijskim karakteristikama (Compas, 1987), iako se u određenom broju studija daju podaci o test-retest pouzdanosti i valjanosti generalnih listi životnih događaja za adolescente (npr.…”

Grant i saradnici (Grant et al, 2004) navode da dokazi o visokoj test-retest relijabilnosti govore u prilog tome da je moguće dobiti pouzdane mere broja negativnih životnih događaja na adolescentskoj populaciji.…”

Osnovni cilj ovog istraživanja je opis skale namenjene proceni životnih događaja kod studenata (Ček lista životnih događaja -forma za studenta -Serbian Life Events Check-list -Student Form -SLEC-SF: Gavrilov-Jerković, Žuljević, Jovanović i Brdarić, 2012) i provera njene prediktivne i konvergentne validnosti. SLEC-SF skala obuhvata 54 različita događaja, za koje ispitanik navodi da li su mu se desili u prethodnih 6 meseci, da li je događaj bio pozitivan ili negativan (valenca), i koliko je snažno doživljen (intenzitet). U ovom istraživanju su korišćeni podaci iz longitudinalne studije (4 merenja tokom 18 meseci) u kojoj su uzorak ispitanika činili studenti Univerziteta u Novom Sadu (veličina uzorka je od 787 do 1061, u zavisnosti od faze istraživanja). Prosečan broj događaja za koje studenti izveštavaju da su im se dogodili u prethodnih šest meseci se za četiri merenja kretao između 3.91 i 4.78, pri čemu su frekventniji negativni životni događaji (2.89-3.61). Ukupan broj i broj negativnih događaja, ostvaruju značajnu povezanost sa indikatorima subjektivnog blagostanja i u krossekcionoj i u longitudinalnoj perspektivi. Dok broj negativnih životnih događaja i broj ukupnih životnih događaja ostvaruju podjednaku povezanost sa indikatorima blagostanja u longitudinalnoj perspektivi, dotle je u krossekcionoj perspektivi povezanost indikatora blagostanja sa brojem negativnih događaja statistički značajno jača nego sa ukupnim brojem događaja. I zavisni (događaji na koje je u potpunosti ili makar delimično moglo uticati ponašanje osobe) i nezavisni događaji ostvaruju povezanost sa indikatorima blagostanja, s tim da broj zavisnih događaja ostvaruje statistički značajno jaču povezanost nego broj nezavisnih događaja, kada su mere blagostanja zadavane u trenutku procene broja životnih 2 Rad je nastao u okviru projekta "Nasledni, sredinski i psihološki činioci mentalnog zdravlja" koji finansira Ministarstvo prosvete, nauke i tehnološkog razvoja Republike Srbije (projekat broj 179006).

The global development of community psychology as reflected in the American Journal of Community Psychology

This commentary presents a virtual special issue on the global growth of community psychology (CP), particularly, but not exclusively, as reflected in the American Journal of Community Psychology (AJCP). CP exists in at least 50 countries all over the world, in many of those for over 25 years. Yet, aside from several early Israeli articles, AJCP rarely published work from or about countries outside the US and Canada until the early 2000s, when the number of international articles began to rise sharply. The focus of CP developed differently in different continents. CP in Australia and New Zealand initially followed North America's emphasis on improving social service systems, but has since focused more on environmental and indigenous cultural and decolonial issues that are as salient in those countries as in North America, but have drawn much more attention. CP came later to most of Asia, where it also tended to follow the North American path, but starting in Japan, India, and Hong Kong and now in China and elsewhere, it is establishing its own way. The other two global hotspots for CP for over 40 years have been Europe and Latin America. The level and focus of CP in Europe varies in each country, with some focused on applied developmental psychology and/or community services and others advancing critical and liberation psychology. CP in Latin America evolved from social psychology, but like CP in Sub‐Saharan Africa, is also more explicitly political due to a history of political oppression, social activism, and the limitations of individualistic psychology to focus on social change, overcoming poverty, and interventions by (not just for) community members. Despite those differences, CP literature over the past 23 years suggests an increasingly common interest in social justice, multinational collaborations, and decoloniality. There is still a need for more truly (bidirectional) cross‐cultural, comparative work for mutual learning, sharing of ideas, methods, and intervention practices, and for CP to develop in countries and communities throughout the globe where it could have the greatest impact.
