Sažetak
A study with student samples from the universities of Zadar (Croatia) and Mostar (Bosnia & Herzegovina) explored the relationship between several justice related beliefs and collective guilt. In addition to the measures of the collective guilt acceptance, assignment and accountability, the participants completed also the measures of the belief in a just world, justice centrality and the justice sensitivity from the victim, observer and beneficiary perspectives. The two national groups did not differ on the belief in the justness of the world and the justice sensitivity. However, compared to the Croatian sample, the B&H sample scored higher on the measures of justice centrality and the belief in the unjustness of the world as well as on the collective guilt acceptance and assignment. The samples also differed in the set of significant justice-related predictors of the collective guilt. The results will be discussed in terms of how the justice motive and sensitivity contribute to the perception of collective guilt, and of the role that the contextual as well as individual factors might have in these relationships.
