Summary/Abstract: The main goal of this research was the validation of a short version of Zimbardo’s Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI), which was previously adapted into Serbian. The original version of the ZTPI has 56 items and measures five time perspectives – Past-Positive, Past-Negative, Present-Hedonistic, Present-Fatalistic, and Future. The adapted Serbian version has 52 items and confirmed the original five-factor structure of the inventory. The questionnaire was shortened due to the need for economy in the use of the scale, especially when it is given as part of a battery of tests consisting of several psychological constructs. The short ZTPI has 15 items and a validated five-factor structure of the inventory. Considering all the conditions and characteristics of this study,such as the mentioned fit indices, factor saturations, as well as the sample size, it can be concluded that the proposed model with 15 items fits the collected data.
