Ovim radom prikazano je istraživanje koje je provedeno u periodu od 6. do 20. ožujka 2017. godine na neprobabilističkom prigodnom uzorku studenata. Opći cilj istraživanja jest ispitati stavove i informiranost studentske populacije u Zagrebu o izbjeglicama i migrantima u Europi, s obzirom na samu vrstu njihova studija, religijsku i političku opredijeljenost te sociodemografske specifičnosti. Metodom online ankete ispitano je ukupno 223 ispitanika, pri čemu su obuhvaćeni Hrvatsko katoličko sveučilište, Filozofski fakultet, Fakultet elektrotehnike i računarstva te Fakultet strojarstva i brodogradnje. Dobiveni rezultati analizirani hi-kvadrat testom pokazuju kako ne postoje statistički značajne razlike između vrste studija koju ispitanici pohađaju te učestalosti informiranja o događanjima vezanima uz izbjeglice i migrante. Također, rezultati pokazuju kako se studenti uglavnom informiraju o navedenim događanjima putem interneta i televizije, što upozorava na potrebu objektivnog i neutralnog izvještavanja, s naglaskom na te medije. Nadalje, pokazalo se kako ne postoji statistički značajna razlika između važnosti religije u svakodnevnom životu te opredijeljenosti za veću humanitarnost prema izbjeglicama, dok se pokazalo postojanje statistički značajne razlike između važnosti religije u svakodnevnom životu te slaganja s tvrdnjama koje izbjeglice prikazuju kao sigurnosnu prijetnju za ostale građane. Također, utvrdilo se kako ne postoji statistički značajna razlika između zagovaranja politike određene stranke i slaganja s tvrdnjama koje izbjeglice i migrante prikazuju kao sigurnosnu prijetnju. Na kraju, detaljnijom analizom otvorenih pitanja, kojima su ispitanici mogli iskazati svoje stavove, ukoliko se nisu slagali ni s jednim ponuđenim odgovorom, utvrđena su dva pravca stavova kod ispitanika, a to su oni koji idu u smjeru humanitarnog pristupa te oni koji idu u smjeru percipiranja izbjeglica i migranata kao prijetnje. Ovakvi rezultati ukazuju na potrebu detaljnije analize ove teme u obliku miješanih metoda.

This work presents research that was carried out in the period from 6th up to 20th of March 2017 on student sample with non-probabilistic method. The general objective of this research is to examine the attitudes and awareness of the student population in Zagreb on refugees and migrants in Europe, with regard to the type of their study, religious and political commitment, and socio-demographic specifics. With the method of online survey it has been examined a total of 223 examinees, in which the subjects are included in the Croatian Catholic University, The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, The Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture. The results analyzed with Chi-square test shows that there are no statistically significant differences between the types of study examinees attending and the frequency of information about events related to refugees and migrants. Also, the results show that students mostly obtain information about specified events via the Internet and television, which indicate the need of an objective and neutral reporting, with an emphasis on those media. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is no statistically significant difference between the importance of religion in everyday life and commitment to greater humanitarism towards refugees, while it was found the existence of statistically significant differences between the importance of religion in everyday life and conforming with statement that represents refugees as a security threat for other citizens. Also, results showed that there is no statistically significant differences between the advocacy of a policy of the particular party and confirming with states which represent refugees and migrants as a security threat. In the end, a more detailed analysis of the open questions, in which the examinees could express their views if they disagreed with offered answers, shows two trends of attitudes within the examinees. One trend shows attitudes that indicate humanitarian discourse, while others indicate securitarian discourse. This results indicate that there is a need of more detailed analysis of this subject by using mixed-methods.
