Information management and creation of a sports star’s image on social networks
Статья научная
This paper thematizes the phenomenon of sports stars and the creation of a good reputation from the point of view of network theory, which deals with channels of information and building relationships with target audiences. The focus is on the postmodern understanding of PR, which focuses on "hyperreality" that is created through a proactive relationship with the media, where balanced communication imposes persuasive images that favor the creation of a good sports image, but also a great socially responsible personality. The potential of the new communication model lies in the multimedia, multifunctionality and multi-significance of observing the interests that covertly govern society. The authors emphasize the power of social networks that effectively simulate a close relationship of trust between a sports star (individual) and fans (group), whose primary goal is to achieve, maintain and strengthen the popularity of the athlete. Incorporating the public sphere as an analytical perspective leads to the goal of connecting different publics that mix with competing discourses while keeping attention on the images created by the PR team. What distinguishes parasocial relationships from real ones is that the individual thinks he controls the imaginary communication relationship, while in social relationships the relationship depends on other participants as well. The socio-cultural model of representation is an important element because, thanks to social networks and traditional media channels, it mediates and produces meanings that shape the identity of a sports star, presenting itr to diverse publics as an activist responsible for its community and wider environment.

Infrastructure characteristics as an important factor of sustainable development of sports tourism
Статья научная
This paper analyzes the area of the municipality of Travnik and its position as an important factor for sustainable development of sports tourism. The analysis was done on the entire territory of the municipality of Travnik when it comes to resources related to sports tourism. These analyses are: description method, analysis method, synthesis method, compilation method and comparative method. Municipality of Travnik is primarily reflected in its favorable geographical position, natural characteristics and attractions, and a rich tangible and intangible heritage. It is exactly the central location within Bosnia and Herzegovina that has conditioned Travnik to always be an important part of the interests of all civilizations and peoples who have inhabited the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, from prehistoric times to the present day. Thus, today in the Travnik area we have significant tangible remains from the time of the earliest cultures that inhabited these areas: the Neolithic period, ancient period, mediaeval Bosnia, Turkish and Austro-Hungarian period and recent history. Geographical characteristics, size and distribution of the municipality, and specific configuration of the terrain provide a comparative advantage for the municipality of Travnik in tourism through the possibility of developing a large number of specific types of tourism, such as: mountain tourism, cultural tourism, recreational tourism, hunting tourism, gastronomic tourism, and extreme tourism. Therefore, we can say that the shown characteristics are an important factor for a positive impact on the sustainable development of sports tourism. These results can be a guide for a planned sports tourism program, which in addition to sports tourism also includes a recreational type of tourism.

Istraživanja Herte Hercog – preteča teorije koristi i zadovoljstva
Статья научная
Teorija koristi i zadovoljstva predstavlja jednu od ključnih teorija koje su dovele do promene teorijske paradigme o maksimalnim efektima medija na ljude. Teorijsko pitanje „šta mediji rade ljudima?” u okviru ove teorije zamenjeno je pitanjem „šta ljudi rade sa medijima?”, a takođe sa ovom teorijom se uvodi i pojam „aktivne publike”. I sama teorija koristi i zadovoljstva i pojam aktivne publike reaktuelizovani su u eri digitalnih medija i društvenih mreža, upravo zbog interaktivnosti koju omogućavaju korisnicima. Zbog svega navedenog, važno je vratiti se u prošlost, tačnije u četrdesete godine 20. veka i ukazati na pionirska istraživanja Herte Hercog (Herta Herzog) o aktivnoj ulozi medijske publike, koja su bila od velikog značaja za tim okupljen oko Pola Lazarsfelda (Paul Lazarsfeld) i Elihu Kaca (Elihu Katz) prilikom postavljanja temelja teorije koristi i zadovoljstva.

Language of sports commentaries and how to evaluate IT
Статья научная
Aggression or sportsmanship can be learned and reinforced in many different ways. Multfple reasons, rather than a single one, influence such behaviors. Young athletes need positive, appropriate, and constructive role models to teach and reinforce sportsmanship and moral reasoning. The coach is perhaps the most significant person influencing the amount of aggressive or sportsmanlike behaviors displayed in the competitive sport context. It was reported that nine percent of hockey players (N=166) between the ages of 12 to 13 perceived their coaches as approving of hockey violence. The role of referees has also been identified as a significant factor affecting athletes' subsequent behaviors. The role of sports commentaries and the language used should also be observed in order to classify them into objective, judgmental or historical ones, and to attribute them their vital role in sportsmanship development.

Статья научная
Human brands operate in the same way as brands of products or services. Branding is not used only in products, services or companies.

Metaphorical language in specialized and popular scientific texts
Статья научная
This study positions itself within the domain of analysing metaphor in naturally-occurring data. The use of metaphor often varies depending on many factors such as the context in which it is used, topic, audience, mode of communication and so on. This study specifically aims at investigating the differences and similarities in the use of metaphorical expressions between specialized and popular scientific texts. The research is based on the analysis of eight articles coming from four scientific disciplines: exact, life, social sciences, and humanities. A pair of texts comes from each discipline, one being a popular science article written by journalists for the general public, and the other being a research article written by scientists for their peers. All metaphorical language in the articles was identified using MIPVU, a systematic and transparent procedure for identifying linguistic metaphor. The findings indicate a pronounced difference in linguistic metaphor use between the two related text-types. These differences concern the frequencies, types, and functions of metaphorical language use. The variations in the use of metaphor proved to be largely explainable in terms of the differences in the components of genre and register.

Prescription of the physical activity for prevention and treatment of diseases
Статья научная
It has long been shown that understanding of the impact of physical activity and exercise on the prevention and treatment of a large number of diseases is of great importance. Scientific evidence confirms that prescribing of individually programmed physical activity by a professional person is of great importance in the therapy of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, obesity, heart and lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure followed by intermittent claudication, muscle problems, bone and joints (rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue syndrome), as well as in the treatment of asthma, cancer, depression, and many mental diseases. For each of these diseases there is proven positive effect of exercise. Also, there is scientific proof of impact of exercise for prevention, improvement of the prognosis of disease, its favorable outcome and influence on quality of life. In order to achieve preventive and therapeutic effect of exercise, we must define the type and amount (volume and intensity), assess possible contraindications, especially when it comes to high-intensity exercise in elderly population and certain diseases (eg. cardiovascular disease). We present overview of guidelines concerning use of adequate intensity, type and duration of exercise in most frequent diseases (cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, musculoskeletal system diseases).
