Abstract

Mladi koji trenutno pohađaju srednju školu su u jednom od najranjivijih životnih razdoblja, u periodu kada otkrivaju svijet, upoznaju sebe i pokušavaju pronaći vlastiti identitet. Tijekom tog perioda prate ih nove tehnologije, a u velikoj su mjeri izloženi informacijama iz medija. Važno je osvijestiti da su društvene mreže neizostavan dio života srednjoškolaca, te promatrati na koji način ih koriste i koji digitalni sadržaj usvajaju prilikom korištenja. Ovaj diplomski rad istražuje navike korištenja društvenih mreža kod srednjoškolaca kroz anketni upitnik koji se sastoji od 17 pitanja, a proveden je na ukupno 119 učenika iz 3 srednje škole u 2 grada u Hrvatskoj (Gimnazija Antuna Gustava Matoša u Zaboku, Srednja medicinska škola u Slavonskom Brodu i Tehnička škola u Slavonskom Brodu). Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da svi ispitani srednjoškolci koriste društvenu mrežu Whatsapp, većina ima otvoren profil na Instagramu, a nešto manje njih koristi se Facebookom. Većina ispitanika provjerava društvene mreže više od 10 puta na dan, provode više od 4 sata dnevno na društvenim mrežama, te provedu više vremena na društvenim mrežama u danu nego što su to planirali. Općenito žele u budućnosti provoditi manje vremena na društvenim mrežama, te smatraju da bi im dan mogao biti produktivniji kada bi manje koristili društvene mreže. Većini ispitanika su društvene mreže glavni izvor informiranja, te smatraju da često izgube pojam o vremenu dok se koriste internetom. Ipak, gotovo polovica njih osjećala bi se kao da propušta digitalne sadržaje i objave drugih korisnika kada bi obrisali profile i korisničke račune na društvenim mrežama.

Abstract (english)

Youngsters who currently attend highschool in Croatia are in one of the most delicate life periods, in a period when they are discovering the world, finding themselves and trying to find their identity. In this period new tehnologies are following them and they are largely exposed to information from the media. It's very important to percieve that social networks are simply inevitable and huge parts od highschoolers everyday lives, and to look into the ways they are using them, and which digital content they are consuming while using it. This graduate thesis is investigating about social networks usage among highschoolers through online survey questionnaire. There were 17 questions and 119 highschoolers from 3 schools in 2 cities of Croatia (Zabok and Slavonski Brod). The results shows that everybody is using Whatsapp, and most of them are using Instagram and Facebook, but somewhat less of the highschoolers are using Facebook. Most of them checks their social network profiles more than 10 times a day, spends more than 4 hours a day on social networks, spends more of the time a day than they have planned to spend. They generaly want to spend less time on social networks in the future, they think that their days could be more productive if they would use social networks less. For most of highschoolers, social networks are the main source of information and they often lose the track of time while scrolling through feed. Nevertheless, they would feel like missing out on digital content and posts of other users when they would delete their social networks profiles and accounts.
