Abstract

U ovom diplomskom radu se kroz teoriju i kvalitativno istraživanje pokušava saznati kako hrvatski
studenti doživljavaju stvarnost na Instagramu. Za potrebe istraživanja, metodom polu -
strukturiranog intervjua je ispitano šestero hrvatskih studenata različitih zanimanja. Oni su prihvatili
sudjelovanje i dali odgovore na 15 pitanja čiji je tema vezana uz Instagram i stvarnost,
karijeru, ljubavni život, zdravlje i društveni život. U prvom dijelu prikazan je teorijski dio povezan
s temom rada, a najveći i jako važan dio zauzela je konstrukcija stvarnosti. Kako se rad
bazira na hrvatskim studentima i Instagramu obrađene se teme identiteta, ali i Instagrama, od
njegovog početka pa do trenutnog stanja. U analizi su se saznali odgovori studenata i njihovo
razmišljanje. Studenti su pokazali zadivljujuću svijest i razlučivanje što je realnost, a što samo
prikaz koji je umjetno stvoren. Iako razlučuju zbilju od nerealnosti, na studente je Instagram
imao ili još uvijek ima utjecaj, najviše kada govorimo o pitanju pozitivne slike tijela koja se
javlja kao veliki društveni problem. Studenti ne sele svoj život na ovu popularnu društvenu
mrežu, ali svojom aktivnošću pokazuju da na njoj vole provoditi vrijeme.

Abstract (english)

In this thesis, through theory and qualitative research, we try to find out how Croatian students
experience reality on Instagram. For the purposes of the research, six Croatian students of different
professions were examined by the method of semi - structured interview. They accepted
participation and provided answers to 15 questions whose topic is related to Instagram and
reality, career, love life, health and social life. The first part presents the theoretical part related
to the topic of the paper, and the largest and very important part is occupied by the construction
of reality. As the work is based on Croatian students and Instagram, the topics of identity are
covered, as well as Instagram, from its beginning to the current state. From the students answers
we found out how they think. The students showed an amazing awareness and discernment of
what is reality and what is just an artificially created representation. Although they distinguish
reality from unreality, Instagram has had or still has an impact on students, especially when it
comes to the issue of a positive body image that emerges as a major social problem. Students
do not move their lives to this popular social network, but their activity shows that they like to
spend time on it.
