Crisis of investigative journalism

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati odnos spola, duljine romantične veze, učestalosti sastajanja, zadovoljstva vezom, sličnosti u dopisivanju, nadgledanja partnerove online aktivnosti te privrženosti mobitelu, s anksioznom i izbjegavajućom privrženosti. U online istraživanju sudjelovalo je 539 sudionika u dobi od 18 do 30 godina, koji su u vremenu ispunjavanja upitnika bili u romantičnoj vezi. Sudionici su ispunjavali upitnik o sociodemografskim podacima, skraćenu verziju Inventara iskustava u bliskim vezama, Upitnik odnosa, Skalu sličnosti/razlika u stilovima dopisivanja partnera, Skalu privrženosti mobitelu, Indeks zadovoljstva parova u vezi te Skalu nadgledanja partnerove online aktivnosti, konstruiranu za ovo istraživanje. Faktorskom analizom, dobivena su tri faktora nadgledanja partnerove online aktivnosti: ljubomora, ljutnja i komunikacija jutro/večer. Rezultati korelacijske analize ukazali su na postojanje povezanosti anksiozne i izbjegavajuće privrženosti s duljinom veze, zadovoljstvom vezom, sličnosti u dopisivanju, nadgledanjem partnerove online aktivnosti, te privrženosti mobitelu. Izbjegavajuća privrženost bila je povezana još sa spolom i učestalosti sastajanja. Zatim su provedene dvije hijerarhijske regresijske analize s kriterijskim varijablama anksiozne i izbjegavajuće privrženosti. Najboljim prediktorima anksiozne privrženosti pokazali su se zadovoljstvo vezom, te ljubomora i ljutnja u dopisivanju. Što se tiče izbjegavajuće privrženosti, najboljim prediktorom se pokazalo zadovoljstvo vezom, kojeg slijede duljina veze, očekivanje komunikacije dopisivanjem ujutro i navečer te privrženost mobitelu.When opting for different areas of interest in journalism, such as politics, sports, showbusiness, culture, politics etc., some journalists choose investigative journalism which differs in many ways from all other forms of journalism, primarily in the length of work on a particular topic. Investigative journalism deals with all those topics and stories which someone wants to remain hidden and untold. Simply put, the focus of investigative journalism is most often illegal and immoral actions and irregularities. The work of state institutions is especially investigated by investigative journalists. It is a demanding branch of the journalistic profession which requires knowledge and experience. Very often, investigative journalists are the target of attacks and work under the pressure of censorship. It is important to emphasized that the Croatian media scene is not filled with investigative journalists. Due to all this, it is assumed that investigative journalism, especially in Croatia, is in crisis. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether that statement is really true and what is the opinion of prominent Croatian investigative journalists on the situation in the profession. The research was conducted on a purposive sample consisting of seven Croatian investigative journalists. The method chosen to carry out the research was in-depth interview was used. The interview was conducted using a pre-prepared guide with questions for examinees who answered in writing. All answers in the paper were presented anonymously. The research showed that investigative journalism in Croatia in fact is in crisis and one of the most common reasons for this is the lack of financial resources to finance the work of investigative journalism and their poor protection
