Sažetak

The article brings the results of the research made in 1992 on the student sample numbering 547 students of the Rijeka and Zagreb Universities. The component analysis under the PB criterion has resulted in latent 6 dimensions allowing the author to make the research on the relations between the latent dimensions of the perception of the progress with the latent dimensions of the development perception of future and of the relation nature-technique-man.
The canonical analysis and intercorrelation matrix are showing that two tendencies in the perception of the progress connected with the dimensions of three groups can generally be discussed. On one hand, the dimensions are structured showing the justification and support to the existing progress, while on the other hand other dimensions are forming the structure which is limiting and denying the progress as such. The denial of the progress is linked to the naturalism, quality of life and catastrophic future, while the support of the progress is structurised round the dimensions of “non-critical technicism” (resource optimism) and “humanistic and technical optimism”, linked with the particular dimensions of the development, future and the nature-technique-man relation.
