Abstract

Prilikom upisa djeteta u dječji vrtić, najčešće roditelji donose odluku o vrsti vrtića u koji žele upisati svoje dijete. Roditelji koji su pripadnici Katoličke crkve u Gradu Zagrebu često odabiru između upisa djece u privatne katoličke ili gradske vrtiće, a u konačnoj odluci im pomaže i dostupnost predškolske odgojno-obrazovne ustanove. Cilj ovog rada je pojasniti statističke postupke korištene u radu te ustanoviti postoje li razlike između roditelja katolika koji upisuju djecu u privatne katoličke ili gradske vrtiće, temeljene na karakteristikama religioznosti, socioekonomskom statusu i političkoj orijentaciji, te postoje li razlike u karakteristikama religioznosti i političkoj orijentaciji između mlađih i starijih roditelja. Za potrebe istraživanja izrađen je anketni upitnik s pitanjima vezanima uz socioekonomski status, karakteristike religioznosti te političku orijentaciju roditelja. Anketu je ispunio 171 ispitanik. Dobiveni podaci predstavljeni su najprije u deskriptivnom obliku tablično i grafički putem histograma, a zatim provedenim statističkim testovima, Mann-Whitneyevim U-testom i 2 testom (hi-kvadrat) testom, kako bi se ustanovile razlike između ispitanika čija djeca pohađaju privatne katoličke i gradske vrtiće, te između mlađih i starijih roditelja. Hipoteze rada su da u oba slučaja postoje statistički značajne razlike poduzoraka. Rezultati istraživanja djelomično su potvrdili obje postavljene hipoteze. Za prvu hipotezu utvrđeno je da roditelji privatnih katoličkih vrtića posjeduju značajno više nekretnina, više su razine obrazovanja i trenutnih prihoda kućanstva, te je značajna razlika na skali stavova za tvrdnje koje se odnose na liturgiju, važnost molitve i izvanliturgijske sadržaje koje Crkva nudi. Nije utvrđena značajna razlika u političkoj orijentaciji između ta dva poduzorka. Usporedbom starijih i mlađih roditelja dobivene su značajne razlike na iste tri varijable religioznosti, odnosno stariji roditelji također naglašavaju važnost molitve, liturgije i izvanliturgijskih crkvenih sadržaja, za razliku od političke orijentacije za koju ni u ovom slučaju nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika.

Abstract (english)

When the time comes to enroll a child into kindergarten, parents are usually those who decide which type of kindergarten is the first choice for their child. Catholic parents in Zagreb often choose between putting their children in private catholic or city-owned kindergarten. Their final decision is influenced by the availability of preschool educational institutions. The goal of this thesis is to explain the statistical methods used in this thesis, to determine existence of differences between parents who enroll children into private catholic or city-owned kindergartens based on characteristics of religion, socio-economic status and political orientation and to find out are there any differences in characteristics of religion and political orientation between younger and older parents. For the need of this research a poll was done with questions about socio-economic status, characteristics of religion and political orientation of the parents. Poll is fulfilled by 171 examinee. Collected data are presented in descriptive way expressed in tabular and graphically using histograms and then by conducting statistical tests Mann-Whitney U and 2 (chi-square) test, to establish differences between examinees whose children are attending private catholic or city-owned kindergartens and between younger and older parents. Hypotheses of the thesis are that there are significant differences in both cases. Results of this research partially confirmed both hypotheses. In favour of the first hypothesis it is shown that parents of children enrolled into the private catholic kindergartens posses considerably more real estates, have higher educational level and household income. Also, there is significant difference on the scale of attitudes towards liturgy, importance of prayer and non-liturgical contents provided by the Church. There is no significant difference in political orientation between those two subsamples. Comparison of younger and older parents revealed considerable differences on the same three variables of religiosity, older parents also emphasize importance of prayer, liturgy and non-liturgical contents provided by the Church, contrary to political orientation for which there is again no significant difference.
