Sažetak
The paper aims to determine whether there exists a connection between the dimension of altruism and the choice of future profession (either “helping” or “nonhelping”) on the sample of 285 respondents, pupils from secondary vocational school “Miloš Crnjanski” from Kikinda, and Preschool Teachers’ Training College in Kikinda.
The instrumend used in this research is NSA 2000 measurement scale. Factor analysis was used to extract two factors in which particles had been polarized that can be used to define the dimension of altruism. The first extracted factor was defined as hypersensitivity towards others. The other extracted factor indicates insensitivity towards others and a certain level of selfishness towards the needs of the people around us. The findings obtained by variance analysis show that there is a significant statistical difference in the dimension of altruism in favour of the respondents who chose teaching or nursing as their future profession.
