Summary/Abstract: The communication of adults is the subject of numerous researches, which is not surprising considering the importance of communication and its impact on everyday life. Successful communication can be classified as an extremely important life skill. Biological differences between the sexes have been proven to influence different susceptibility to certain diseases, but also noticeable behavioral differences. In addition to biological differences, it is also certain that the upbringing of male and female, as well as social treatment, are not completely equal, both due to traditional and cultural values, which leaves consequences on the individual's behavior. The aim of this research was to examine the perception of the Bosnian public on the existence of differences in the communication skills of adults in relation to gender. The research results support the claims that there are significant differences in the perception of communication skills of adults in relation to belonging to a certain gender. Poorly developed communication skills, as well as different communication expectations, can lead to the accumulation of stress and the appearance of conflicts, that is, inappropriate pattern of behavior, including aggressive and/or violent outbursts. The applicative value of this work is reflected in pointing out the importance of creating adequate communication approaches for adapted communicators, as well as timely and appropriate treatment of violent communication as a form of behavioral pathology.
