Intelligibility and conceptual schemes
Authors: Polšek Darko
Published: September 2018

The article treats Davidson’s consi derations on conceptual schema- tism. The first part examines his general position. It includes remarks about the dualism of scheme and reality, about abandoning empiricism and re-establishing immediate touch with the world by linguistic means, and it suggests that we should, following prof. Davidson’s position, aban- don not only the idea of differing schemes, but as well the idea of a single scheme. The second part discusses his main thesis, the assertion that intel- ligibility implies having the same conceptual scheme. It is argued that the bounds of intelligibility are at the same time the bounds of our notion of rationality. And lastly, it denies that vicious circle of ascribing beliefs and understanding of sentences may be settled by general agreement of be- liefs, and claims that a relativist treats aliens more charitably.
On the existence of qualia
Authors: Berić Boran
Published: September 2018

The notion of qualia (as qualitative Properties of our conscious expe- riences) is introduced through discussion of Daniel Dennett's Paper »Qui- ning qualia«, where Dennett tries to show that the traditional concept of qualia is so thoroughly confused, arguing that it should be completely abandoned. Choosing the eliminative materialist's position, he denies the existence of qualia as mental properties. The Author's intention is to show that Dennett’s arguments for denying the existence of qualia are, at least, not conclusive.
Propozicijska epistemička logika
Authors: Brkić Slavko
Published: September 2018

The article deals with the syntactic section in constructing propositional epistemic logic and it draws on the source of the so-called Finnish school of logic (K. J. J. Hintikka, I. Niiniluoto, V. Rantala and others). The author tries to show that construction of such logic is justified for the analysis of philosophical problems as well as for the wider interdisciplinary application. The article also points to possible ways of overcoming some of the difficulties inherent to such an approach.
Filozofska razmatranja o metodologijskim zadacima socijalne antropologije
Authors: Skledar Nikola
Published: September 2018

In modern science, especially in social science and humanities, regardless of different theoretical-methodological orientations and views, it is recongnised and generally accepted (at least declaratively) that theoretical concepts of cer- tain science, selectively determine what and why, is going to be investigated, t.e., the range, the direction, and the limits of the investigation, (the sub|ect), and in connection with this, which theoretica-empirical methods and instrumentation Is going to be used, (the method).In humanistic theory of social or cultural anthropology as a human science, about that eminently human (La anthropina) and the exceptionality of culture, philosophical-anthropological and social-philosophical concepts of the nature and substance of man, are inevitably implicated regarding the sense of human sociability and course Of history, and then aksiologica) value concepts and the purpose of human creativity and engagement,, as well as gnoseological about the possibility of understanding universal human character and their historic mani- festations. This certainly embraces some methodological repercussions. That is, first of all the use of basic philosophical method-transcendental observation of Ihe substance of the phenomenon — man, although that, is an eminently trans- empirical, metaphysical area, which can never be theoretically exhausted or em- pirically without anything being left, which means lhat it cannot he scientifically verified.Apart from this, although man and his human world and specific situations can be little measured, and by immediate observation we can gel Information on- ly about outer manifestations of human behaviour [but not about the motives and the sence), that is, with direct (parttcipational) observation and comparative- historical method, and qualitive analysis are much more important in anthropol- ogy than the method of quantitive analysis.

Reforma obrazovanja i ideologija
Authors: Kukoč Mislav
Published: September 2018

This article deals with some problems of education and ideology. Two aspects of the problem are discussed:1) European contèxt and its social, economic and cultural development2) specific social and political conditions of Yugoslav society in its post-revolutionary period.Analysing the official initiative for the so-called »socialistic transformation of education, based on self-management«, the author claims that the ruling political structure, with its ideological barriers, is not capable of getting into the essence of that problem, and they do not offera satysfying solution which might improve productive changes of the whole system of education.The author confirms that those changes should be carried out on the basist of progressive European experience with respect to actual position of social development and above all it should be done according to the demands of modern informatics and technology.
Interakcije s majkom i zadovoljstvo obiteljskim životom mladih iz obitelji s ocem i bez oca
Authors: Lacković-Grgin Katica , Opačić Goran
Published: September 2018

Based on a sample of youngsters from the final classes of primary school who come from complete families (N = 112) and from families without a father (N = 73) an investigation was carried out with the aim of establishing whether these two groups differed in their satisfaction with family life. It was investigated whether the two groups differed in their interaction with the mother (in intimacy, requests, harshness, neglect and giving).The results showed that based on the structure of the families there was no difference in satisfaction of family life, and that family satisfaction was strongly connected with the type of interaction rather than the structure of the family.In the dimension of interaction which reflect the expressive functions, there was no difference between the mothers of groups of young boys or girls from complete or deficient families. The structure of the families was modified only by the dimension of demands which defined the instrumental function of the mother.
O ranom razvoju percepcije osobne kompetentnosti

This paper deals with the question of the early appearance of perception of self-competence, as well as the question of the causes of individual differences in expectations of self-com petenca. A survey of investigations which are trying to give answers to these questions is given. It is suggested that most probably man has got an innate need for competence, which satisfaction or non-satisfaction significantly contributes to the development of self-concept in very early childhood.
Nezaposlenost i profesionalni razvoj mladih
Authors: Milosavljević Branko
Published: September 2018

Many results, reveal that work as a factor of development and socialisation in significant measures forms man’s psychological and social status. In accordance with this, it seems acceptable that the negative side of unemployment, idleness, maintain along with the rest, the professional development of the young;— it causes confusion about the choice and relationship towards a future career— it restricts the professional development and the life of the young— there is loss of attained knowledge and skill— socialisation into idleness dramatises the social status of the youngWhen we take all this into consideration, and this is established mainly onthe results of research, then it is obviously clear that unemployment as a very complex social problem, has far reaching implications, more than society realises.188
Ergonomski pristup radnom vremenu u strategiji tehnološkog razvoja
Authors: Milosavljević Branko
Published: September 2018

Certain aspects of the strategy of technological development with respect to the progress of the negation of the tendency to reify men and to ignore the working life of man in the labour process, must become the subject of ergonomics, with its interdisciplinary approach to the humanization of labour. In order for ergonomics to fulfill this task, it is necessary to consider the reformulation of the present ergonomic determination of the relation man-labour. With this reformulated approach to the relation man-labour, ergonomics would deal, to a greater extent, with the negation of the reification of man in the labour process and with man’s working life as a significant segment of the total humanization of labour. What the article presents is founded upon these presumptions.

K novoj paradigmi kulture
Authors: Gracin Juraj
Published: September 2018

Assuming that culture is the «organic part of life- the author concludes that •culture should be lived«. Keeping in mind the above. Artaude’s conceptions which contain a rather significant assertion about the spontaneity of culture, this paper lias synthesized some of the modem conceptions of culture as part of the overall cultural development of I,he human race, and at that in the closest con tact with nature. Thus the affirmation of the sensorial-empiric value system has been built, in which materialistic and idealistic views are being acquired, and the new paradigm of the »human cultural expression« has been formed. This paradigm should be able to function as an equilibrium between the intuitive and the discoursive. This conception is rather significant for this age. since it leans towards a more overpowering conception in favour of scientism; only thus can »culture« come into realization as the way of life in its totality.
Plaidoyer za kulturu i turizam
Authors: Jadrešić Vlatko
Published: September 2018

In this theoretical applicative plaidoyer, the author puts culture and tourism into mutual relation, i. e. culture in tourism and tourism in culture.Pointing out the lack of relevenl literature in this area, and analysing the fact that there is no expected merge of tourism and culture, the author warns and analysis at the same time many negative functions in that relation.This paper, amongst other things concludes that examples of Yugoslav tourism are -full- of negative and unfavourable elements, especially when the inter-disciplinary aspects of tourism are analysed, which greatly diminishes the overall positive effects of this modern social and economic phenomenon.The means to overcome these relations and the situation, are various. One of the most, important is education and especially the education system via new humanistic, didactic model of studies, multi-disciplinary and inter-faculty organisation.When dealing with the development of receptive and emitive tourist culture, these questions take on a much wider sphere of education and sensible activities, with the aim of getting planned economical effects, on the one side, and to preserve and develop the original creative and cultural artistic entities, on the other.
Rad osnovnih škola u Dalmaciji na kraju NOB-a (školska 1944/1945. godina)
Authors: Zaninović Mate
Published: September 2018

During the people's revolution in Yugoslavia, an educational and cultural revolution took place as its integral element. Antifascist organizations, under the leadership of the Yugoslav Communist Party which led the struggle for national liberation, sponsored the endeavours in education and culture.The first Partisan schools on the liberated territory in Dalmatia during 1942—1944 worked in difficult conditions. Normal school activity was hampered by frequent enemy attacks carried out both by the occupater and by domestic traitors. Most school buildings were burned down, plundered and destroyed. In some places classes were held in the open air or in private residences. Reading was taught using proclamations and leaflets, but by the end of 1944 first and second grade pupils received an »Abecedarian« and »Primer« which faciliated the process of learning to read and write.Elementary school activity became more organized and systematic with the establishment of the National Liberation Administrative Committee for Dalmatia (January 1943) and its Department of Education, which took upon itself the task òf organizing schools. There was a lack of teaching staff so that young people were instructed in teaching courses for work in elementary schools. These courses gave them the most essential professional, pedagogical and political knowhow which was of aid to them in organized classroom activity and in the education of adults.After the liberation of Dalmatia, the schools for teachers in Šibenik and Dubrovnik were reopened, while a third one was established in Split. Their self-sacrificing work with children in the classroom and amongst adults earned the teachers the respect of the populace so that the interest of the people for schooling was great. Schools and education were a con- szituent part of the national liberation struggle.The system of schooling and of the education of children and adolescents during the renewal of Yugoslavia and its buildup of a socialist society, developed on the foundations from which sprang the elementary schools and adult education.
Obrazovanje - rezultati i kriza
Authors: Mrkonjić Anđelko
Published: September 2018

Nowadays we rightly speak about the crisis in education as a universal phenomenon, which amongst others, is caused by big changes and dilectics, which gives the crisis a permanent characteristic. The crisis can be seen between the given, planned, and wanted in real achievable conditions and the achieved, in these objective circumstances.The indicators of the crisis in the educational system are many, such as: efficiency of the system which is seen between input and output, the educational level of the population, the level of achieved individual educational needs, and society’s institutions, the level of motivation of youth and adults for permanent education and self-education, and then for creative work.The crisis is manifested through the number of illiterate people. Including the an-alphabetlcal literacy, and if we add to this modern computer illiteracy, the situation becomes really alarming. According to the first category of literacy, we hold the top rank amongst other countries in Europe, so that in some parts of the country we have up to 25% of Illiterate people over the age of 15 years.The causes of the crisis are many. Here are some of them: the aim and the tasks are not realistic, the educational plans and programmesa are not up to modern standards, democratisation and expansion of education is not accompanied by the educational infrastructure, the schools are isolated from social realities, economical status of education, accelereation of science, their didactical design and implimentation into educational plans and programmes, practical realisation of permanent education and training etc.The way out of the crisis, or putting it into acceptable limits lies in more intensive research and application of science, especially in the area of : integration of the school into all aspects of society, the re-design of school as a social institu- ion through better reproduction of teaching personnel, application of modern techniques, technology, methods, organisation of eductional process with the pupils as the subject in it, to develop the adult educational system, to give to educa- lion the status of profitable investment and not consumption.
Problem Kantova rješenja faktičnosti i univerzalnosti vrijednosti
Authors: Travar Dušan
Published: September 2018

The author proceeds from the assumption that the empiric tenet cannot be carried out unless it has resulted from a universalization based upon not only the customs themselves but upon moral judgment as well. Kant's model of the moral judgment appears somewhat vague insofar as it disregards social implications. Teleological presumptions covering the period from the Old Greece times up to the Middle Ages do not differentiate "what is" from "what ought to be". Such a clash was introduced by Descartes's quantification of fact as well as by his rationalization of value. In what follows moral discovery has been approached relying upon the so-called naturalistic fallacy objection as well as upon Kant's unification of fact and value. The closing passage of the article deals with the deistic aspect of Kant's philosophy of religion which supports moral religion and ethical/civil society. Kant's critique of some aspects of the Church in terms of its institutional structure is also discussed as well as his defense of man as moral being.
Individualitet supstancije i reprezentacija u Leibnitza. uz 8. i 9. poglavlje "Rasprave o metafizici"
Authors: Mikecin Igor
Published: September 2018

In chapter eigth and nine of his "Treatise on Metaphysics" Leibnitz, on the basis of the previously expounded complete concept of the simple substance, shows the inner connection between substantative individuation and representation. Opposing the historically inherited late Scholastic understanding of the question of individuation, Leibnitz establishes the principle of identity of indiscernibles and through it, basing his argument on Thomist teachings on angels, proves the essential individuality of the simple substance. According to Leibnitz, the principle of individuation does not reside in the accidental determinations of the substance but in its very essence which is constituted by all of its modifications and which is primarily manifested as the power of representation. What determines each individual substance in its individuality is the different degree of clarity and distinctness and the different perspective of its representation of the entire universe.
Usporedba tri dobne skupine u različitim aspektima zadovoljstva životom
Authors: Penezić Zvjezdan
Published: September 2018

Satisfaction with life is an often used term, and after the sixties many researchers have published many scientific works and papers on this theme.The available literature deals with measurement and defines satisfaction with life in the larger context of subjective well-being. This concept includes: 1. satisfaction with life, as a cognitive component, 2. positive, and 3. negative affects, as affective components. There are also some disagreements about the effects of age on satisfaction with life.The investigation covered 228 subjects. Heedful of Levinson's theoretical insight about life transitions, the subjects were sorted into three groups: a group of students, a group of middle aged people, and a group of older people. The aspects of satisfaction with life were measured on the scales originally used for assessment of subjective well being.The results of comparing these three groups of subjects show that the group of students and the group of older people differ from the third group only in the number of subjectively expressed somatic complaints. Students and older people have more somatic complaints titan the group of middle aged people. In the other aspects of subjective well-being there are no differences among the three age groups.Generally speaking, results indicate that títere are no differences among the three age groups in regard to the main aspects of subjective well-being and that the scales used are reliable for further use on a sample of Croatian subjects.
Endlerove skale anksioznosti: još jedna provjera
Authors: Sorić Izabela , Klarin Mira
Published: September 2018

The purpose of the research was to establish the relation between incompetence as a global self-concept and state and trait anxiety, as well as to confirm once more the metric characteristics of the EMAS-T and EMAS-S scales for measuring trait and state anxiety. The research was carried out on freshman at the Faculty of Philosophy in Zadar twice in the the period of two months (the neutral situation and the situation of taking exams).The results confirmed the two-factor structure of the EMAS-S scale (the cognitive-worry factor and the autonomic-emotional factor) and its high inner consistency. The expected one-factor structure of the subscale of the social evaluation of the EMAS-T scale did not show so that the results were interpreted according to some earlier research projects in which this scale had been applied (Sorić. 1995; Cvenić. 1995; Knežević. 1995; Gregov and associates 1995).In the situation of taking exams the most significant predictor of experienced state anxiety turned out to be the dimension of the social evaluation of trait anxiety, while self incompetence was on the borderline of significance. The results obtained during the research project generally support Endler’s interactive model of anxiety.
Promjene nekih psihofizioloških varijabli tijekom menstrualnog ciklusa
Authors: Šimić Nataša , Manenica Ilija
Published: September 2018

The aim of the investigation, which included 100 female subjects aged 18 - 24 years, was to find out whether the changes in some psychophisiological variables during the menstrual cycle can be attributed to hormonal changes in the organism. The investigation included measurements of body temperature, pulse rate, state anxiety, reaction time to one, two and four light stimuli, together with the assessment of the task difficulty. The subjects were at different stages of the menstrual cycle (menstrual, folicular, ovulatory, luteal and premenstrual phase). The results showed that changes in body temperature followed the changes in hormone progesteron during the five phases, while the changes in other variables could not be readily attributed to changes in the hormone level.The results also showed that state anxiety was significantly correlated with the two phisiological variables (body temperature, pulse rate) and the assessment of task difficulty. It could, therefore, be said, that state anxiety reflected changes in the state of the organism. It seems that changes in some efficiency aspects (reaction times) were determined by some more complex interactive processes between hormonal and psychophisiological variation during the menstrual cycle.
Social perception of persons with PTSD symptoms: a test of some predictions of attribution theory
Authors: Ćubela Vera
Published: September 2018

A broad research of the impact of PTSD diagnosis and presenting symptoms of this disorder on social reactions to persons with PTSD has been undertaken to test the prediction that the relative absence of fairly recognizable symptoms of this disorder promotes less positive social evaluation. This paper presents the effects of manipulating with the PTSD label and the recognizability of presented symptom pattern on ratings of the target person responsibility and elicited affective reactions and support giving intention in subjects.Three vignettes, differing in recognizability of presented symptoms of PTSD, were given to the subjects (228 students at the University of Mostar), and about a half of the subjects in each of these symptom pattern conditions was told that the target is a PTSD casualty. Subjects responded to the vignettes by rating target’s responsibility and their own reactions to him (pity, anger and willingness to give him support) on a five-point scale.The results showed significant effect of the symptom pattern manipulation, which was most pervasive in responsibility judgments and reported support intentions. The pattern of differences in judgments of responsibility suggests that the prevalence of less recognizable symptoms of PTSD might result in ascription of some responsibility to a target person for causing actual conditions. The relative absence of these symptoms appears to reduce, in particular, the variability in the subject's willingness to give support to the person, which is generally reported as being very high. Unlike these responsibility and support ratings, the effects of the symptom pattern on reported affective experiences of pity and anger do not match the pattern predicted from the attribution model of B. Weiner and an extension of this model made by Lopez and Wolkenstein. The absence of the predicted Label x Symptom pattern interaction was explained in terms of some drawbacks in the construction of the stimulus material.
Razine anksioznosti kod prognanika i povratnika

Published: September 2018

This study aimed to examine the impact of war stress on some aspects of anxiety in refugees and returnees.The subjects were refugees from Eastern Slavonia (N=80) and returnees from the Dalmatian hinterland (N=80), whereas the citizens of the city of Split (N=81), who have been indirectly exposed to the war events, served as the control group.The subjects were given Endler's Multidimensional Anxiety Scales (EMAS-S and EMAS-T) that are designed to measure the state anxiety and the trait anxiety in usual, everyday situations and in situations of social evaluation. In addition, two scales were administered that were constructed for assessment of the perception of threatening aspects of war and of the exposure to war related stress (Gregov et al., 1995).The results showed that the anxiety level was higher in the returnees than the refugees, while the control group had the lowest degree of both state and the trait anxiety. This finding is in accordance with the hypothesis that the stress experienced during the refugee period and in the new situation of the return would have cumulative effects which could be manifested in short-term consequences (increased level of state anxiety and perceived threat of some war aspects) and in longterm consequences (increased level of trait anxiety).

Približavanje sociološkom pristupu religiji u uvjetima hrvatskog društva
Authors: Ćimić Esad
Published: September 2018

Seeking an answer to key theoretical questions, the author attempts to come up with an “applicable” model in line with analytical approaches to the structure of the religious or atheistic consciousness. Laying down its essential constitutive elements and dimensions the author treats them on the same theoretical and methodological level, “positioning" them in their social embedment and reading them in respect of their particularities and importance within the social setting under consideration. With these guidelines the author determines the religious experience and the religious consciousness. Traditional, experiental and rational elements are spread out over an even field wherein it is possible to fathom the roots of religious belief. In this context, a challenging field of social research opens up for investigating the relativising elements not only within the process of the manifestation of religion on the individual and group level but within the process of its transformation, the intensity of its action and, above all, in the socail consequences of the widest spectre.All the challenges we have met in investigating the religious phenomenon draw attention to a preoccupation with either theoretical apriorism or with matriculated empiricism. The overcoming of this state of affairs necessitates the investigation of the specific relation of worldly (social-political) and spiritual (religious) factors, especially in the national and religious domains. With this in mind the author draws the reader’s attention to the rural and urban religious landscape. The investigation carried out in the article can produce a fruitful response, a critical réévaluation of “unqucstionable”theoretical premises.
Nasilje i ljudska priroda
Authors: Ivoš Erma
Published: September 2018

The article aapproaches the problem of violence and human nature from the position of the most influential socio-psychological theories which Peat violence as a fundamental category of nature, society and individual existence. Far front a one-sided reading of the psychological, biological or economic nature of violence, the article determines it as behaviour which possessses an articulated meaning connected to society as a whole. It has its past, present, future and its logic. Emphasising the political production of violence and the (mis)use of the concept of human nature through which violence is produced and henceforth controlled so as to control the individual and society, the author points to the immediate and essential relation of "sociability” to violence without which it is impossible to understand tire contemporary world and its future.
Kontekstualizacija istraživanja suvremene mladosti na primjeru mladih u Dalmaciji
Authors: Tomić-Koludrović Inga , Leburić Anči
Published: September 2018

Since contemporary research on youth fails to differentiate the various youth scenes, we have taken as a hypothetical framework for our research the differentiation of youth behaviour as discussed by the German researcher Karl Lenz (1986, 1988, 1991). By using his model, we have tried to establish empirically to what extent each aspect of youth behaviour is present in the Dalmatian context. The general hypothesis has facilitated an overview of the potentially relevant empirical "answers" to the question: can the Lenz's model offer a model of analysis for the behaviour of young people in a society in transition like Croatia?The results have not entirely confirmed the initial assumption of the similarities between the young people in Croatia and those in the developed post-industrial countries. However, the wealth of common characteristics in the basic areas of activity that characterize the types of youth behaviour fits the assumption that significant differences do not exist. The results obtained allow us to conclude that, for example, the young people of Croatia today have similar priorities in their lives, and that they are similarly orientated in Peers's terms, as well as being highly demanding in questions concerning schooling and future vocation.
Socijalizacija, identitet i spol u mikro/makro kontekstu
Authors: Tomić-Koludrović Inga
Published: September 2018

The article deals with those sociological approaches which view the relationship between man and woman as dependent on socio- structural, economic and cultural developments and which simultaneously analyse it through the tension between individual action and the social structure. In contradistinction to feminist macro-sociology which investigate the man/woman relationship exclusively according to dependence on economic structures and institutions, as well as feminist micro-sociology which investigates everyday conditions and the situation between the sexes, the approaches analysed in the text deal with the structural and individual conditions of gender socialization, die guilt to be borne by women in forming their gentler roles and analyse the emotional norms of contemporary societies. Since the relationship between the individual and society is to be found in die very center of these analyses, one can conclude that these are positions which attempt to transcend the micro-macro dualism in contempoorary social theories.
Policentrični regionalni sustav Dalmacije i uloga gradova kao polova razvitka
Authors: Pasarić Branko
Published: September 2018

The author investigates the nodal-functional structure of Dalmatian settlements and concludes that this space is characterised by a monocentrist-dispersive model of regional structure. The author arrives at this conclusion through an analysis of the number of settlements and the number of inhabitants living in the four large Dalmatian cities, in settlements of between 3 and 30 thousands inhabitants and in settlements with a populace of less than three thousand. In order to prove the working hypothesis of the paper, the author analyses the division of the populace into those living in one of the four large cities, in other municipal centers and those in other settlements.The author connects the size and significance of the settlements with their economic role within the space of Dalmatia and Croatia through an analysis of the structure and number of people employed. The affiliation of the individual regional centers with certain economic branches is determined on the basis of standardized aberrations from middle values.The author supplements his findings by introducing the concept of “pole of development” and through a specific method of evaluating the “sufficit of employment” determines the “basic activities” of the Dalmatian cities and the significance of these activities for Croatia.The article concludes with arguments for a new strategy of development for Dalmatia in which industry ought to comply with the needs of tourism and general living conditions.
Affective reactions of patients and personnel during air-raid alerts in the psychiatric hospital Ugljan

Published: September 2018

Tijekom uzbuna koje su najavljivale opću ili zračnu opasnost u Psihijatrijskoj bolnici Ugljan primijećeno je da se reakcije pojedinih kategorija bolesnika i osoblja razlikuju u zavisnosti o psihodinamskoj strukturi grupe. Ovim istraživanjem nastojalo se utvrdili kojim intenzitetom anksioznosti te kategorije ljudi reagiraju u uvjetima navedene stresne situacije. Upitnikom STAI (X-l, X-2), u periodu kad uzbuna nije bila dana, utvrdila se razina stanja i crte anksioznosti. Dva dana poslije, zbog blizine neprijateljskih zrakoplova, označena je zračna opasnost, te je u skloništu ponovno utvrđeno (samoprocjena, procjena opažača) stanje anksioznosti (X-1), ali sada u sasvim različitoj situaciji. Ispitivanjem su potvrđene neke specifičnosti u afektivnim odgovorima pojedinih grupa prema različitim entitetima. Naime, kod ovisnika o alkoholu i osoblja bolnice stanje anksioznosti za vrijeme uzbune značajno je poraslo, ali ne i kod shizofrenili bolesnika.
Dummett's Conception as theory of meaning for Hintikka’s type of game-theoretical (II), (Wittgenstein's verification conception
Authors: Festini Heda
Published: September 2018

In this part of the development of the theme, attention will be paid to the very original concept of verification found in Wittgenstein. The analysis is devoted to the 100th anniversary of his birth.The purpose is to show that this concept is not the first formulation of the strict principle of verification, as Carnap (1936-37) meant, but to seek such a verification / contrac- ture theory that includes the concepts of verification / counterfeiting, proof and confirmation / anticipation of late neopositivity / analytical philosophy and proving the lime elemental tools of today's science.Wittgenstein has reformulated Duhem's general concept of verification as the principle of verification and falsification in the concept of checking the rules and thus got the original theory that must be compared to each later.

Similarity regained
Authors: Božičević Vanda
Published: September 2018

In this article the author tries to articulate a theory of pictorial reference that would avoid the trap of the strict conventionalism supported by N. Goodman. Making use of the Gibson's notion of pcrcepliml invariants, as well as of Goodman’s notion of exemplification, the author claims that pictures, thanks to the visual properties of their signilier. refer Io visual properties of our environment. As pictures exemplify perceptual properties (invariants) such as jo be red«, -to be doglike«, »to be up«, »to be in front of«, etc., strictly speaking, the language or pictures, according Io the author, may be understood as a language which consists only of adjectives and adverbs. From tins point of view, the role of I he painter implies the construction of the signilier that posseses the properties to which he intends to refer. If. the author concludes, the reference of pictures relied only on conventions, such an effort of the painter would be unnecessary.

Does the definition of modality with the tense operators point to the thesis of universal determinism? Is the theorem about predetermination provable within the framework of tense logic and is with this the above-mentioned thesis proved also?Diodorus Kronos's main conclusion can be interpreted as an attempt to give an affirmative answer to the first question. Both analyses offered in this article show, however, that the determinism is presupposed in the premises of thia conclusion.The answer to the second question is somewhat more complex. This is discussed in the second part of the article.

Subjects were history and biology, The independent graders were the teachers of these subjects from different middle schools.The results showed that all of these ways of grading do not ensure the same objectivity of grades. The least objective is the classical way, more reliable is one with "standard notebook" and relatively most reliable is the comparison of school work done in pairs.

Različita shvaćanja odnosa didaktike i metodike u didaktičkoj i metodičkoj literaturi u nas
Authors: Kolmanić Barbara
Published: September 2018

The article looks at the viewpoints of a number of authors concerning the relationship between didactics and teaching methods in contemporary scholarship. Numerous questions have been raised of both epistemological and practical nature, especially concerning the relationship between didactics-general methodology-teaching methods. Since we are dealing here with two pedagogical disciplines which deal with similar fields, some authors have made the proposal to change Lite term “teaching method” into “the didactics of the subject” or “special didactics”, while others speak of a didactics which will be inductively consuued from teaching methods.The article represents an attempt to objectively review the problems of the mutual relationship between didactics and teaching methods and their intercorrelation without any pretensions of offering new termonological solutions.

The article deals with and checks some basic hypotheses of Weiner’s and Kelly's models od causal attributions tif school success/failure and the author compares these two models as tar as their efficiency is involved in regard to predictions of affective and cognitive reactions (in the sense of changes of expectations of future success) of pupils to such achievement. The investigation was conducted on 80 pupils in the fourth grade of middle school in natural setting on knowledge tests in physics. Il consisted of two parts: in the first (pre-test) part the pupils were evaluating their intellectual capacities and the expected success in the tests and the second (post-test) part they evaluated their own success in that test, emotional experience of that success, the importance of each of the four given samples of achieved success (ability, devotion for work, the difficulty of the task, and luck), consistency, distinetivness and consensus of the achieved results and the expected success on the coming test. The estimation was done on seven degree scale with defined concepts. The data was obtained nbottl the intellectual abilities of the pupils nnd their school success. Tje analysis was conducted by regressive analyses and two-way analyses of variance, Il has been established that Weiner’s and Kelly's models have satisfactory efficiency in the prediction of emotional and cognitive reactions of pupils to the achieved success. Kelly's model gives us a better prediction of cognitive reactions. The pupils were quite accurate in estimating the dimensions of consistency and distinctiveness of achieved grades but not the dimension of consensus (probably because of some self-defensive mechanisms).
