Sažetak
Boghardus type scale was applied to a sample of social work students of the first and the second year (93% of the sample were women) in order to examine the distance towards 29 nations and the degree of personal experience sofar with at least one member. In particular, some determinants of distances towards Bosnians (Muslims) and Serbs were analyzed. With regard to general rank, Bosnians took 18th and Serbs 28th place. High correlation between the distance towards those two nations and “totalpersonal distance" (average of respondent’ s distances towards ali 29 nations) as well as with past experience (poorer personal experience - bigger distance) were found. No correlation between distance towards Serbs and how respondents were personally affected by war in Croatia was found. Correlation between distance to Bosnians and how respondents were personally affected by war(s) in Bosnia & Hercegovina is even negative. The author concludes that results, especially the later, could be used in defining the salutogenic approach to war victims.
