AB  - COVID-19 pandemic is a long-lasting process associated with dynamic changes within society and in individual psychological responses. Effective communication of measures by credible sources throughout the epidemic is one of the crucial factors for the containment of the disease, and the official communication about pandemics is straightforwardly directed toward changes in behavior via engagement in (self-)protective measures. Calls for the adherence to these measures are aimed at the general population, but people's reactions to these calls vary depending on, for example, their individual differences in cognitive and emotional responses to the situation. The focus of our study was the general narrative about the epidemic as conveyed by both state officials and media outlets in times of decreased social contacts due to the quarantine, in which relying on these sources of information is even more pivotal. Our aim was to explore the stability of the proposed mediational model during the course of the epidemic in Serbia. In the model, we tested the relationship between perceived credibility of information (PCI) and two types of protective behavior—the actual self-protective behavior (ASPB) and the hypothetical protective behavior (HPB), as well as the potential mediating role of alertness in these relationships time-wise. A cross-sectional study (N = 10,782, female = 79.1%) was being administered daily during the first epidemic wave and in three more 2-week time frames during the second wave. Based on the variability of these measures during the first epidemic wave, three stages of psychological responses were mapped (acute, adaptation, and relaxation stage), which were observed, with some deviations, also in the second wave. The mediational model was relatively robust after the initial few weeks, but the strength of pairwise relationships was more changeable. With both types of protective behaviors, the predictive power of PCI was partially mediated through alertness. This suggests that, while individual differences in cognitive and affective responses are important, so is coherent, focused, and credible communication in all stages of the epidemic, which emphasizes the communality aspect of the social containment of the infection. Our findings can thus be valuable in informing the planning of effective future communication.

AB  - Decisions about one's own health range from everyday easy ones, such as taking a vitamin pill, to those made in the situations of life-threatening diseases. When it comes to choosing treatments, patients have difficulty understanding statistical information about the possible outcomes of alternative treatments, such as probabilities and risks. These challenges are especially important in the context of the shared decision-making. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the labelling of the treatment in risky choice decision tasks. The risky choice framing effect (FE) pertains to the systematic preference reversal because different aspects of formally identical situations are emphasized. In the present study, the participants made a forced choice between a non-risky and risky treatment presented in terms of gains and losses. In the first condition surgery was the risky option and in the second it was radiation. In the third condition, the treatments' labels were replaced with ' A' and 'B'. Chi-square tests revealed a significant difference in the proportions of risky choices between the three conditions. The FE was registered only in the first and the second condition, and it was moderate and strong, respectively. When choosing between surgery and radiation, participants' choices were indeed influenced by the naming of the treatment, but not exclusively-they generally preferred surgery, and when it was offered in terms of losses, they preferred it even more.
AB  - Odluke o ličnom zdravlju protežu se od svakodnevnih i lakih, kao što je odluka o uzimanju vitaminskog suplementa, do onih koje se donose u situacijama kada je prisutna životno ugrožavajuća bolest. Pacijenti koji donose odluku o izboru tretmana suočavaju se sa specifičnim izazovima i imaju poteškoća da razumeju statističke podatke o mogućim ishodima alternativnih tretmana, o verovatnoći i o rizicima. Ova problematika je posebno značajna u kontekstu prakse zajedničkog odlučivanja, u kojoj i pacijent, a ne samo lekar, donosi odluku o tome na koji način će se tretirati bolest. Cilj ove studije bio je da se ispita uticaj naziva tretmana u zadacima odlučivanja u uslovima rizika. Efekat okvira rizičnog izbora se odnosi na sistematsku promenu redosleda preferencija koje su različite po rizičnosti. Do toga dolazi usled naglašavanja različitih aspekata identične situacije prilikom prikazivanja opcija donosiocima odluka. U našoj studiji ispitanici su prinudno birali između nerizičnog i rizičnog tretmana, koji su predstavljeni u terminima dobitka i gubitka. U prvoj eksperimentalnoj situaciji, kao rizična opcija predstavljena je operacija, a u drugoj zračenje. U trećem eksperimentu, nazivi tretmana su zamenjeni apstraktnim oznakama A i B. Rezultati pokazuju statistički značajnu razliku u proporcijama rizičnih odgovora između tri eksperimentalne situacije. Efekat okvira je registrovan u prvom i drugom eksperimentu; u prvom umerenog, a u drugom većeg intenziteta. Kada biraju između operacije i zračenja na ispitanike utiče naziv tretmana, ali to ne objašnjava celokupnu varijansu. Po pravilu, preferirali su operaciju, a kada je ona prikazana u terminima gubitka, ta preferencija je bila još jača.

AB  - Odnos izme�����u braće i sestara (siblinga) je najtrajnija porodična relacija. Premda su

je ispitano 322 ispitanika, a najviši prosečni skorovi su registrovani na subskalama
Naklonjenost (M=4.15), Divljenje prema siblingu (M=3.74), Divljenje od strane siblinga
(M=3.65) i Prosocijalno ponašanje (M=3.59), a najniži na subskalama Takmičenje
(M=2.22), Dominantnost siblinga (M=2.65) i Dominantnost nad siblingom (2.65), što
ukazuje na ulogu i značaj siblinških odnosa kod adolescenata. Iako raspodele skorova
dosledno odstupaju od normalne distribucije, pouzdanost subskala iskazana u terminima

pristrasnost majke u smislu favorizovanja samog ispitanika u odnosu na drugog siblinga
(U=226, p<.01), a dominantnost koju ispitanici iskazuju nad svojim siblingom je niža u
odnosu na kontrolnu grupu (U=256.5; p<.01). Pored toga, u siblinškom odnosu unutar
alkoholičarske porodice je značajno niža brižnost, odnosno nega prema bratu/sestri
(U=252, p<.01), a povišeno suparništvo (U=290.5; p<.05). Posmatrano na nivou
faktorskih skorova, ispitanici iz alkoholičarskih porodica pokazuju veći intenzitet rivaliteta

AB  - The relationship between brothers and sisters is the longest-lasting family relation.
Although they are part of a family system, sibling relationships have distinctive
characteristics, which can differ in specific family circumstances. The goals of this
research are the adaptation and testing of metric characteristics of Sibling Relationship
Questionnaire (SRQ), as well as the validation through comparing dimensions of sibling
relationships between alcoholic and functional families. In the first of the two studies, 322
participants were examined, the highest scores were registered on subscales of Affection
(M=4.15), Admiration of Sibling (M=3.47), Admiration by Sibling (M=3.65)
and Prosocial (M=3.59), and the lowest scores were on subscales of Competition
(M=2.22), Dominance of Sibling (M=2.65) and Dominance by Sibling (M=2.65), which
indicates the role and significance of sibling relationships in adolescents. Although score
distributions consistently deviate from normal distribution, the reliability of subscales in
terms of internal consistency is relatively satisfying. In the second study a comparison of
average scores on subscales and factors of SRQ was made between two groups of
participants (from alcoholic families and from a control group). Control
of confounding variables was conducted through pairing. In alcoholic families there is a
bigger maternal partiality, compared to their siblings, participants are more favoured by
their mothers (U=226, p<.01), and also less dominative over their siblings in comparison
to the control group (U=256.5; p<.01). Moreover, sibling relationships in
alcoholic familes are characterised with significantly lower nurturance of sibling (U=252,
p<.01) and higher antagonism (U=290.5; p<.05). Factors scores show
that siblings from alcoholic families display rivalry of higher intensity (U=269; p<.01),
while, at the same time, report that they have less power – that is, that their relative status
in the sibling dyad is adverse (U=273.5; p<.01). Results are compatible with the hypothesis
of complementarity of family and sibling relations.
