- Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this review article is to describe the current state of scientific knowledge on the characteristics of the sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) trait in adolescence. The SPS trait stands for an increased sensitivity of the central nervous system and is associated with a tendency to process stimuli more deeply. People with this trait are highly sensitive people. Previous research has shown that there is a link between this trait and poorer quality of mental health. In addition, adolescence itself is a particularly challenging phase of life for most young people, as numerous changes take place during this developmental phase. For these reasons, highly sensitive adolescents represent a particularly vulnerable group for the development of various types of mental health problems. However, previous research has shown that the development of various problems in adolescents with the SPS trait is largely dependent on environmental factors. This knowledge is essential for professionals (psychologists and psychiatrists) who need to be aware of the main characteristics of highly sensitive adolescents in order to help this group of young people.

- Keywords: parental burnout; personality; parental competence; family functioning; social support;
- Summary/Abstract: Parental burnout is the result of chronic stress and manifests as emotional exhaustion in the role of a parent, emotional detachment, and loss of parental fulfilment. This study aimed to examine how sociodemographic variables, personality traits, parental self-efficacy, marital aspects, and social support contribute to parental burnout. Mothers of children below the age of five (N = 255) completed online the parental burnout questionnaire, the IPIP-50 personality questionnaire, questionnaires of perfectionism, parental competence, marital relationship quality, social support, and the general data questionnaire. Parental burnout was reported by 3.5% of mothers. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that higher parental burnout can be explained by sociodemographic variables (higher number of children and more urban area of living), personality traits (low emotional stability, low agreeableness, and high perfectionism), and low parental self-efficacy. Although related to parental burnout, marriage aspects and social support were not significant predictors of burnout. The findings have both theoretical and practical implications for recognising and preventing parental burnout, while providing a basis for further research.

- Keywords: journalism; productive forces; exploitation; newspapers; productivity; political economy;
- Summary/Abstract: The article addresses a dialectical relationship between the production and realisation of news content, linking demands for increased newspaper productivity with forces of consumption. The economic performance of newspapers is evaluated by exploring the correlation between alterations in their revenues/market expansion on one side, and changes in productivity and employment on the other. The research serves as an illustrative analysis within the context of a smaller EU country – Slovenia. The methodology employed could potentially be applied for cross-country or EU-wide comparative analyses. The examination of economic newspaper performance is juxtaposed with the entire media sector (the competitive sector) and the advertising sector (the realm of business partners). The results underscore that economically sustainable news production is achieved through decreasing employment and intensifying the exploitation of newspaper workers, an aspect that is increasing annually in Slovenia, and surpassing the decline in revenues and profit.

- Keywords: theory of planned behaviour; generation Z; influencer marketing; focus group;
- Summary/Abstract: Using the Theory of Planned Behaviour, this research paper examines how influencer marketing affects Generation Z in two different countries: Croatia and Türkiye. The goal of this study is to examine whether the attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control of Generation Z impact their intentions to follow influencers in the future. The research was conducted by means of a questionnaire and focus groups. Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling were used to test the hypotheses and the relationships between the variables. Both subjective norms and perceived behavioural control positively impact Generation Z's intention to follow influencers in Croatia and Türkiye. The findings of this study will allow brands in Croatia and Türkiye to adapt their content strategies, campaign designs, and engagement methods by considering the influencer preferences and cultural trends of Generation Z, which will, in turn, help brands in effectively reaching and engaging their target audiences.

- Keywords: demographic depression; depopulation; ageing; Croatia;
- Summary/Abstract: The long-term decrease in the total number of inhabitants, the ageing of the population and the social marginalisation of rural areas have caused negative demographic trends in almost the entire Croatia. The concepts of extinction, demographic depression, and demographic endangerment are most often associated with the phenomenon of demographic decline and economic decline in settlements. This paper compares the demographic depression index (I DD) by settlements in Croatia for the 2011– 2021 period, based on 11 demographic criteria defined by Mrđen and Marić (2018). The average I DD value of all settlements in Croatia for 2011 was 2.22 (depressed/edge of demographic depression), while for 2021 it was 2.20. The largest share of settlements for both 2011 and 2021 belongs to demographically depressed area. The smallest share of settlements belongs to the category of extremely vital area. If the absolute change in the number of settlements by I DD is observed, the largest increase was recorded in the demographically depressed area, and the largest decrease was recorded for the edge of demographic depression. The categories of vital and extremely vital areas did not register an increase. I DD can be applied in the analysis, i.e., recognition of the demographic resources of an area with the aim of reducing inequality in socio-economic development, i.e. spatial imbalance.

- Keywords: psychopathy; leader; cynicism; disengagement; expediency; hotel; employee;
- Summary/Abstract: The research conducted is grounded on the principles of social exchange (SET), social cognitive theory (SCT), and conservation of resources theories (COR). These theories enabled us to comprehend the indirect correlation between leader psychopathy and employee expediency. To validate our research, we surveyed three waves, collecting information from 282 hotel employees in Indonesia. The PLS-SEM technique was used to test the hypotheses. The results demonstrated evidence that leader psychopathy had a positive direct and indirect effect on employee expediency through organisational cynicism and moral disengagement. We make novel theoretical, empirical, and practical contributions by explaining why leader psychopathy affects employee expediency. This study is one of the first to integrate leader psychopathy, organisational cynicism, moral disengagement, and employee expediency into a single theoretical model.
