Abstract

In this study we focused to the relationship between trusting the parents and attributing a responsibility for themselves, parents and state. We administered measures of trust to the 393 students of high school (154 girls and 239 boys), which were divided into the two cohorts of age 12 and 16. They were asked to fill a questionnaire concerning their relationship with mother and father. They were also asked to write a 3 fields of their lifes, for which are responsible to themselves, 3 fields of responsibility of their parents and the last 3 for state. Suprisingly we found out, that there are only small differences between boys and girls and small diferencess between cohorts too. The differences were how the groups sorted by cohorts and gendre described the single responsibility-owners in particular fields (me, parents, state) and trust to parents.

Abstract (in Czech)

V naší studii jsme se zaměřili na vztah mezi důvěrou v rodiče a připisováním odpovědnosti sobě, rodičům a státu. Administrovali jsme škálu důvěry mezi 393 žáků středních škol (154 dívek a 239 chlapců), rozdělených podle kohort na 12 a 16 let. Tito žáci vyplnili dotazník zjišťující míru jejich důvěry v otce a matku. Dále pak popsali 3 oblasti jejich života, za které jsou odpovědni oni sami, rodiče a stát. Překvapivě jsme nalezli pouze malé rozdíly mezi chlapci a dívkami a také mezi kohortami. Odlišnosti jsme zjistili v tom, jak u jednotlivých skupin tříděných podle kohorty a pohlaví popisovaly jednotlivé nositele odpovědnosti v jednotlivých oblastech k důvěře a důvěru k rodičům.
