Milan Mesić

Sažetak
This is part of a report on the empirical study within the project »External Migrations and Social Development« conducted by the author and a group of associates in the Institute for Migrations and Nationalities. The sample consists of 271 first generation external migrants from two distinctly external-migrational communes in I he continental part of Croatia, differing mutually in the degree of development. The survey was conducted there between Christmas and New Year's Day 1989.
The questionnaire consisted of two Likert-type scales of attitude items. The first referred to the socio-political situation in Yugoslavia, while the second referred to the European integration and the issue of Yugoslavia's integration into an extended European Community. By means of factor analysis 6 factors were extracted from the first scale. The author analysed and defined 3 types of attitudes: the optimistic, the moderately optimistic and the pessimistic type. Regarding the chances of Yugoslavia's integration into Europe, the examinees have then been categorized as belonging to 3 groups of orientations: the optimistic pro-Europeans, the sceptics and the pessimists. Finally, the regression factor analysis was performed with independent variables serving as criteria. A special influence on some of the factors has been established concerning the examinee's origins (the district he comes from), his sex, his work-status and level of education.
