Sažetak
Cultural context is formed by social groups and individual’s value orientations. Behaviour in social conflicts is classified according to three pattern system of conflict behaviours. Avoiding and winning are non efficient behavioural patterns in the long turn as opposed to cooperation that leads to personal and social growth. The main goal of this research is to determine whether the behavioural pattern in social conflicts could be predicted by the value orientations of vocational school students, after partialing out the variance attributed to gender and age effects. The data were collected from a stratified group sample of 760 students (M=17.5 years; SD=1.22; 41.2% female students) attending ten different vocational schools in Rijeka and Opatija. Social conflict behavioural patterns have been measured by the Questionnaire of Attitudes toward social conflict resolution patterns (Uzelac & Zakman, 2000.), and value orientations by Values Orientation Scale (Franc et all, 2002). Linear composites of the value orientation subscales were analyzed for internal consistency. Also, correlations and descriptive parameters of the value orientation scales and the attitudes toward conflicts are
reported together with three multiple regression analysis. The weak, but statistically significant correlation was established indicating that after partialising effects of gender and age, students who accept winning pattern in social conflicts are inclined to hedonistic and non-conventional orientation. At the same time, the students who accept cooperation pattern in social conflicts are inclined to self-realizing and non-hedonistic orientation.
