University Student’s Family Resilience and the Organization of Their Own Free Time

The aim of the research is to determine the correlation between the factors of students’ family resilience and the ability to organize their own free time in a proper way. The study was done on students (N = 135) enrolled to the Faculty of Educational Sciences of the Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, Croatia. The purpose of the research is linked to planning adequate activities for university students of the first study years regarding their free time in a wide sense. The modified instrument Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS) was standardized for the Republic of Croatia and used in the research. The factors of students’ family resilience represent a predictive group of items. The criteria item is the ability to properly organize one’s free time. The basic statistical values of the observed items have been calculated during data processing, while the regression analysis has been used as the multivariate method of data processing by which the prognostic value of the predictive variables set is determined. The results have shown that there is a connection between the ability to properly organize one’s own free time and resilience factors: In case of troubles, we know that we can get help from our relatives or friends and Both parents take part in leading our family to the same extent. The scientific value of the obtained results is manifested through indicators showing that the help and support offered by family and friends is important for a proper organization of one’s own free time.
