1. Health and well-being of military nurses in high-reliability, high-stress environments : a qualitative study in the slovenian armed forcesZlatko Kvržić, Mirko Prosen, 2026, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Aim: To investigate how female military nurses experience high-reliability, high-stress environments and how these conditionsshape their well-being.Background: Military nursing involves complex demands that extend beyond clinical care, including dual professional roles,operational unpredictability, and gendered expectations. These pressures can undermine physical, psychological, and social well-being, yet the lived experiences of military nurses, particularly women, remain underexplored.Design: A qualitative descriptive design was used.Methods: Ten female military nurses were recruited through purposive sampling and interviewed individually in semi-structuredonline interviews. Data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Trustworthiness was ensured through reflexive coding,an audit trail, and adherence to COREQ guidelines.Results: Five overarching categories captured the factors shaping well-being: organisational and structural demands; high-stressoperational environments; emotional and psychological burden; coping and resilience; and gendered identity and work–familybalance. Participants described constrained autonomy, communication gaps, and role ambiguity within hierarchical structures.Psychological pressures were heightened by moral tensions, responsibility for colleagues, and expectations of emotional control.Coping relied mainly on informal peer support, as formal services were rarely used due to stigma. Gendered norms and familyresponsibilities further influenced well-being and career decisions.Conclusion: Military nurse well-being is shaped less by individual resilience and more by organisational culture, operationaldemands, and gendered expectations. Addressing these systemic factors is essential for sustaining the military nursing workforce.Implication for Nursing: Strengthening leadership support, communication, psychological safety, and professional autonomymay improve working conditions and support nurses’ well-being in demanding operational contexts.Implications for Health Policy: Policies should promote supportive organisational cultures, reduce stigma around help-seeking,and facilitate work–family reconciliation to sustain and retain the military nursing workforce.

2. The Osor Aquatorium : An Overview of Underwater Archaeological ResearchZrinka Ettinger Starčić, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: In the Kvarner area and the Cres-Lošinj archipelago, Osor is the oldest and most significant island settlement, as well as the best-researched archaeologically. In addition to land-based archaeological surveys and research, ongoing since the late 19th century, the seabed of the entire island area has been systematically surveyed and studied. Particular attention has been given to the Osor seabed, due to the importance and value of the material culture originating from the settlement itself. This article presents all previous research conducted over the past 70 years, chronologically divided into two main periods: the first systematic research during the second half of the 20th century, and more recent systematic and protective research in the early decades of the 21st century. The results of these activities certainly complete the picture of the way and dynamics of life in this island centre throughout different historical periods, especially from the perspective of ancient seafaring, navigation, and Osor’s role in established transport and economic communications.

4. Human-Computer Interaction in Slovenia : A Retrospective and Trend Analysis of Local ResearchCiril Bohak, 2025, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: This paper presents a retrospective and trend analysis of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) research in Slovenia, with a focus on publications from national Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) conference venues between 2014 and 2024. Drawing on a dataset of 84 papers authored by 138 distinct contributors, we examine the evolution of research topics, author participation, and institutional involvement over time. The results show a relatively stable number of accepted papers per year, accompanied by fluctuations in author diversity, with 2022 marking a peak in community engagement. The analysis highlights both the persistence of core Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) themes—such as usability, interaction design, and visualization—and the gradual inclusion of emerging areas, including immersive technologies and data-driven design. By situating local contributions within broader international developments, the study provides an overview of the Slovenian Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) landscape, identifies patterns of collaboration and dissemination, and relects on challenges and opportunities for strengthening the community in the future.

5. Consumer perceptions of wood as a material for sustainable building construction in SloveniaAna Slavec, Lea Primožič, Nežka Sajinčič, 2025, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: In the context of climate change, aligning residential building practices with environmental priorities is increasingly important. Wood products, with their lower carbon footprint compared to most alternatives, present a viable solution for more sustainable construction. However, consumer awareness of these benefits remains limited. While interest in sustainability is rising, many consumers still perceive wooden structures as less durable, more vulnerable to fire and earthquakes, harder to insulate, and more expensive to maintain. Additionally, environmental considerations often rank below cost, design, and durability when selecting materials for construction, furnishing, and renovations. To explore these perceptions, we conducted a quantitative survey in 2023 involving 1,009 participants from a representative marketing panel in Slovenia. The study assesses Slovenian consumers’ environmental identity, climate concerns, and the frequency of eco-friendly choices, while examining the importance of sustainability relative to other factors in home design decisions. We further analyse the prevalence of wood-based materials in Slovenian households and gather insights on attitudes toward wood in construction. Our findings highlight the need for targeted communication campaigns to address consumer misperceptions about wood’s durability and environmental benefits, drawing comparisons with past studies from other countries. This research provides actionable recommendations for policymakers and industry stakeholders to enhance consumer engagement and support the adoption of wood as a sustainable building material.
