of Croatia, compatible to prison models in Western Europe. The suggested
model is based on the international standards of human rights, and on
specially worked out principles related to the human rights of prisoners.
The paper has bearing on modern scientific achievements in penology and
other related disciplines as well as on professional and scientific results
of the author who has worked for 8 years on the process of organizing the
treatment of convicted prisoners in Croatian penal institutions. Main
object of the paper is to serve as a scientific or professional groundwork
for the arrangements of new penitentiary system in the Republic of Croatia
oriented towards the treatment of prisoners with due respect to their
rights.

Summary: Relations between socio-economic status and criminal
behavior within the framework of the recent sociological theories and
Eysenck's last version of of his theory of criminality were investigated on
a representative sample of discovered criminal population in Croatia. Poor
socio-economic conditions proved to be related to the continuous criminal
behavior. Also, tendency towards criminal career among non-aggressive
offenders was found whereas social psychopathology was mostly favoured by
aggressive delinquents. Majority of results are in accordance with
statements from Eysenck's latest version of the theory, and other
sociological research.

Held: from 04/15/93 to 04/17/93
Summary: The study deals with the nature and the extent of
institutional differences in psychosocial climate defined by the appraisals
of prison inmates. Canonical discriminant analysis brought about two
significant discriminant functions which, taken together, accounted for
roughly 90% of total intergroup variability of appraisal measures of
psychosocial climate. Results of the study confirmed earlier views
according which the establishment and the development of liberal penal
institutions are directed towards better physical arrangement rather than
to the improvements of rehabilitation components of institutional life.

Summary: The study deals with the ways that prison inmates
experience and cope with particular stressful situations, ordinary present
during imprisonment. Canonical discriminant analysis was performed in order
to assess the differences in appraisals and coping with stressful events
between 7 groups of subjects formed according selected categories of
stressors: accommodation, relations with other prisoners, institutional
regime, relations with staff, contacts with the outside, vagueness in
institution, and health. Despite the existence of statisticaly significant
differences between some categories of stressful events, obtained canonical
correlation values, and positions of group centroids on derived functions
suggest that the content of stressful situations is not particularly strong
determinant either of the choice and use of selected coping strategies, or
the way that prisoners appraise certain aspects of stressful encounters.

Summary: In an attempt to test the hypothesis of sport-personality
relationship, this study tried to take into consideration some limitations
of previous research, especially those related to the sampling procedure.
Cattell's 16PF questionnaire was administered to the sample of 68 male
junior oarsmen, and to the matching group of 84 non-athletes. A linear
discriminant analysis revealed significant group differences in the space
of 16 personality dimensions, showing that oarsmen could be described as
somewhat more reserved (factor A), less autonomous (factor (Q2), and also
simpler (factor N) and less persistent (factor G) when compared to
non-athletes.

Held: from 07/12/94 to 07/16/94
Summary: The study sought to examine the relations between
inconsistency and psychoticism, and some other personality dimensions and
self-rating scales. Inconsistency was defined as an absolute difference in
self-rated shyness assessed twice with an interval of roughly 90 minutes.
No significant correlations were found between inconsistency and either
Eysenck's personality scales, sensation seeking scales, machiavellianism,
or self-ratings on the following attributes: moody, conscientious,
unpredictable, reliable and unsystematic. Marginally significant multiple
determination coefficients show that inconsistency is not predictable by
the described set of predictors.

wereinvestigated. The research included variables of generaldemographic
status, SES characteristics of subjects and membersof their families as
well as indicators of social pathology.Psychological status was quantified
using EPQ and MMPI-201 andcriminological status was described by a series
of variablesrelated to offending and recidivism. Obtained results
clearlyindicated the dominance of psychological factors as factors
ofcriminal behavior.

Summary: In an attempt to test the hypothesis of the existence of
twodifferent processes in stereotyping, the author explored theimpact of a
strategy induced by instruction and the object ofperception on the creation
of illusory correlations. In the sametime, the author was interested in the
influence of the valenceof behavior, operationalization of the saliance and
motivationalfactors. Failure of experimental demonstration of
exaggeratedassotiation of salient individuals and the behavior of
themajority, and also the absence of confirmation of theoreticalpredictions
related to motivational factors, presents apersuasive evidence for a
necessity of reexamination of thetheory of illusory correlations.

Summary: The study was conceived as an attempt at application of
Lazarus' transactional theory of stress and coping on the analyses of
offenders' adjustment and experience of imprisonment. Deprivations of the
contacts with the outside and, to the lesser extent, accommodation and
health proved to be the most serious sources of prison stress. The evidence
was found that direct actions and reinterpretations represent the most
frequent ways of coping in prisoners, with low level of differentiation
with regard to the type of stressor. The strongest predictor of the overall
adjustment measure showed to be institutional security level and, to the
lesser extent, stress intensity and some criminological and demografic
features. The study gave the evidence on the importance of mediating
cognitive appraisal and coping processes in the prediction of anxiety,
depression and psychosomatic problems, as well as on moderator effects of
appraised event controllability.
