Socio-humanistic Qualities of Journalistic Abilities in the Croatian Academic Journalism Education

Studying journalistic abilities in the field of journalism education is important because they are a prerequisite for the acquisition of journalistic competencies. The paper inspects the distribution of the journalistic abilities in Croatian academic study programs for journalists starting from the definition of it as a potential reactive system that develops the journalist’s natural tendency to practice journalism in academic and media institutions. While communication studies researchers have traditionally explored them from the perspective of journalistic occupation, this article studies them from the new educational, holistic approach, which, as the final learning outcome, anticipates a socially active whole human being. Content analysis of the pedagogical documentation, the usual method of the communication and pedagogic research, found a discrepancy of journalistic abilities ; while focusing on the mental (mostly logical- mathematical) they disregard intrapersonal and physical ones.
