摘要：Personal goals and interests play an important role in human development because they orient people's life planning,decision-making and also,therefore,their future life course.The article presents the findings of a research which explores the eventual differences between Slovenian and Croatian sample in agency-oriented and communion-oriented life goals and the analysis of significant predictors of above mentioned life goals on both samples.The research included 924 adults of both genders,aged between 21 and 70 years from Slovenia and Croatia.In the study we used the scale of Goals (Pohlman and Brunstein,1997) and a set of questions regarding various participant's life domains and their perceived importance.The results show significant differences on agency- oriented and communion-oriented life goals between the Slovenian and Croatian sample;in both cases croatian participants reach higher results than those from slovenina sample.As significant predictors in both samples were identified (a) age and importance of effective use of free time for agency-oriented goals,and (b) and gender,parenthood,importance of parenthood and importance of effective use of free time for communion-oriented life goals.The differences in results are explained by respective levels of social modernisation and social welfare,given the fact the Slovenian respondents are embedded in the social environment that offers more possibilities for fullfilment of their life goals,and are closer to postmaterialism and individualism.a.
其他摘要：Življenjski cilji in interesi,ki so del motivacijskega sistema,imajo pomembno vlogo v psihološkem razvoju posameznika,saj usmerjajo načrtovanje življenja in odločanja ter zato tudi življenjski potek ljudi v prihodnosti.Prispevek predstavlja rezultate raziskave,ki proučuje razlike med slovenskim in hrvaškim vzorcem v izraženosti ciljev,usmerjenih v delovanje oz.v skupnost ter v analizo pomembnih prediktorjev obeh vrst ciljev na obeh vzorcih.Raziskava je izvedena na vzorcu 924 odraslih oseb obeh spolov (v starosti 21 do 70 let) iz Slovenije in Hrvaške.Uporabljena je bila Lestvica življenjskih ciljev (Pohlmann in Brunstein,1997) ter Vprašalnik o doživljanju pomembnosti in uresničevanju nekaterih življenjskih ciljev.Rezultati kažejo na pomembne razlike med obema vzorcema pri ciljih,usmerjenih v delovanje oz.v skupnost;na obeh področjih dosegajo udeleženci iz hrvaškega vzorca višje rezultate kot slovenski udeleženci.V obeh vzorcih sta se kot pomembna prediktorja ciljev,usmerjenih v delovanje pokazala starost in ocena pomembnosti koristne izrabe prostega časa,za cilje,usmerjene v skupnost pa spol,starševstvo ter oceni pomembnosti starševstva in koristne izrabe prostega časa.Dobljene razlike razlagamo s procesi družbene modernizacije in ravnijo družbene blaginje,pri čemer se slovenski udeleženci raziskave gibljejo v okolju,v katerem imajo večje možnosti za uresničevanje svojih življenjskih ciljev,so bližje postmaterializmu in individualizmu.
