The paper deals with Jovan Radulović’s (1951‒2010) essays, dedicated to selected Serbian writers and to some important individuals from the Serbian past, mostly from Dalmatia, Radulović’s homeland. The focus is put on the texts about Stojan Janković (Mitrović), Gerasim Zelić, Simo Matavulj, Sava Bjelanović, Mirko Korolija, Marija Ilić- Agapova, Vladan Desnica, which were mostly written as prefaces for editions of their works or given as speeches on the occasion of certain anniversaries, as well as on the occa- sion of prestigious literary awards ceremonies (“Bora Stanković”, “Petar Kočić”, “Branko Ćopić”, “Golden Sunflower” awards). The analyzed texts reveal deep poetic connections of Radulović’s work with the ones of the writers in question, as well as his ability to, us- ing short forms, such as essays, highlight the essential artistic and poetic characteristics of their works.

Future Work

The Worry Domains Questionnaire was proposed as a measure of both pathological and nonpathological worry, and assesses the frequency of worrying about five different domains: relationships, lack of confidence, aimless future, work, and financial. The present study analyzed the factor structure of the long and short forms of the WDQ (WDQ and WDQ-SF, respectively) through confirmatory factor analysis in a sample of 262 students (M age = 21.8; SD = 2.6; 86.3% females). While the goodness-of-fit indices did not provide support for the WDQ, good fit indices were found for the WDQ-SF. Furthermore, no source of misspecification was identified, thus, supporting the factorial validity of the WDQ-SF scale. Significant positive correlations between the WDQ-SF and its subscales with worry (PSWQ), anxiety (STAI-T), and depression (BDI) were found. The internal consistency was good for the total scale and for the subscales. This work provides support for the use of the WDQ-SF, and potential uses for research and clinical purposes are discussed.
