During the past year, Zagreb's Child and Youth Protection Center, in collaboration with the City of Zagreb's Health Office and the Society for Communication and Media Culture, has conducted a national research project, 'Online Social Experiences and Mental Health of Youth'. Freshmen and Juniors from highschools in Osijek, Zagreb, Rijeka, Split and Dubrovnik (1,772 students in total) answered a specially designed questionnaire via tablets, and filled in Beck’s inventory. In addition to high school and vocational school students, school associates shared their thoughts, experiences and needs with us.

More on the resesearch results can be found here.
