“…Furthermore, we hypothesized that military women would endorse BS to greater extent than military men due to their increased need for protection, idealization and affection (Glick et al 2000;Moya et al 2007). Additionally, we hypothesized that sexism could be predicted by socio-demographic, professional, and religious variables, which is in line with the prior research findings (Brajdić-Vuković et al 2007;Galić and Nikodem 2006;Ivarsson et al 2005;Marinović Jerolimov and Ančić 2014;Vučković Juroš et al 2014;Zakrisson et al 2012). Finally, we expected that these study results will contribute to a better understanding of gender relations in the military and to the improved implementation of gender equality policy in the CAF.…”

The military is a work environment in which the underrepresentation of women and the presence of gender prejudices continue to exist. The present study validated the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (ASI) for the Croatian military population. To determine the ASI scale’s basic metric characteristics, data were collected from a sample of 895 active-duty military personnel (445 men and 450 women). The study results determined satisfactory measurement characteristics for the ASI scale and confirmed the ambivalent sexism construct with its basic dimensions. Sexism in the military environment was found to a moderately high degree, and gender differences were observed. Three types of sexism endorsement were identified in both subsamples (egalitarian, moderate egalitarian and traditional for women, and moderate egalitarian, traditional and hostile for men), with additional differences detected in their socio–demographic and professional characteristics. The findings support the apparent exposure of women to sexism in the military environment, and suggest the need to raise awareness of the negative impact of gender prejudice on gender relations in the military.

“…In terms of religiosity measured along our indicators, deeply religious countries like Poland and Croatia (cf. Marinovič and Ančić 2014;Zrinščak 2017), the difference between religious and non-religious people is slightly more significant than in the case of the less religious Czechs or Hungarians. However, the data for the six countries are surprisingly consistent over the two-decade period of the three EVS surveys, although the correlations were slightly stronger in 2020.…”

This study explores the role of social spaces in the religious worldview in the Central and Eastern European region through a comprehensive study of values spanning nearly three decades. The analysis focuses on the differences between the values of religious and non-religious people in different social spaces during this period. Drawing on the insights of the spatial turn, the study provides a new way of understanding the impact of social spaces on the emergence of religious values. For the first time, the analysis attempts to verify the influence of social spaces on the emergence of specific religious values using a representative database. The research on the four waves of EVS interprets the values of the religious and non-religious along the lines of their relationship to norm violations. The analysis points out that religious worldview does not appear equally in different spaces of society. The research proved in a novel way that in the social space of production and administration, in the systematic organization of society, religious people do not have significantly different values in this region. On the other hand, the values of the religious, which are different from those of the non-religious, are expressed in values that can be linked to the social space of lifeworld. All these findings can give a new direction to quantitative and qualitative research on religion, which now includes aspects of spatiality.

“…that a woman's natural role is to be a wife and a mother and a man's role is to be a breadwinner (Hauser, Heyns, & Mansbridge, 1993;Jugović & Ančić, 2013;King, 1993). In addition, Croatian research has shown that more frequent religious practice was a predictor of more traditional attitudes towards marriage and sexuality in Croatia (Marinović Jerolimov & Ančić, 2014).…”
