3. The nature of security culture in a military organization : a case study of the Slovenian Armed ForcesDenis Čaleta, Katja Rančigaj, Branko Lobnikar, 2011, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose:
The purpose of this research article is to define and explain the role of security culture as an important factor in the provision of effective preparedness of security organisation members for managing new types of security challenges, which are transnational, asymmetric and complex in form. It should be noted that, to a great extent, the internalisation of security awareness and the attitude towards security information depends on the organisational dynamics in an organisation. The article will complement theoretical findings with the analysis of the nature of security culture in a security (military) organisation, the priority of which is a high level of awareness of the effects of security culture and its integration in individual and organisational values.
Design/Methods/Approach:
The article presents views of the Slovenian Armed Forces’ (SAF) members on the perception of factors relevant for the operation of processes forming security culture. The research was carried out on a sample of SAF employees who use classified information in their work. Altogether 53 respondents participated in the survey. The security culture was measured with questions in the form of 31 statements. The respondents answered these statements with the help of a five-level scale. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for the listed statements was 0.932. Finally, the nature of security culture was established with the help of a factor analysis.
Findings:
A factor analysis, carried out at the beginning of the analysis, helped establish six factors of security culture which enabled us to explain 71.99 percent of the variance. The identified factors intended for explaining security culture in the context of a military organisation are as follows: personnel requirements for management of classified information, competence for maintenance of security culture, attitude towards the protection of classified information, procedures for ensuring protection of classified information, recording and elimination of violations in the protection of classified information and organisational measures for management of classified information. The results of the survey carried out among the SAF employees demonstrated that the respondents estimated marked all identified security culture sets of contents above average, with marks ranging between 3 and 4 in all statements.
Research limitations:
The survey covered those SAF members who use classified information in their work. Hence the results of the survey are primarily applicable to the military environment and could not be generalized for other security organisations.
Practical implications:
The results of the survey can be directly applied to the management of processes for the protection and management of classified information in the SAF. Furthermore, they also indicate the application of the theoretical understanding of security culture’s significance to the success of security organizations’ performance.
Originality/Value:
The survey introduces an original approach to the measurement of security culture in security organisations. It can serve as a valuable basis for further research on the interaction of security culture with other factors in security organisations, such as for instance organisational culture. Practicians of criminal justice and security, military science and other similar scientific disciplines can also find this article useful in their further study of standpoints and attitudes of security organisations’ members about their role in the processes of establishing an appropriate security culture, as a precondition for effective management of new challenges and threats that we witness in the contemporary security environment.

4. Integriteta policijskih vodij in njihova skrb za skupnostRobert Šumi, Branko Lobnikar, Emanuel Banutai, Katja Rančigaj, 2012, original scientific article Abstract: Namen prispevka:
Avtorji v prispevku analizirajo stopnjo percepcije integritete policijskih vodij s strani njihovih podrejenih – policistov in policistk ter ugotavljajo, ali je integriteta policijskih vodij povezana s konceptom policijskega dela v skupnosti, s posebnim poudarkom na skrbi za skupnost kot ključnemu dejavniku tega sodobnega pristopa opravljanja policijskega dela. Skrb za skupnost je tudi eden od osrednjih elementov uslužnostnega tipa vodenja, zato je namen prispevka ugotoviti, kako je integriteta policijskih vodij povezana s tem konceptom vodenja.
Metode:
Empirična raziskava o vplivu osebnostne integritete na uslužni stil vodenja je bila opravljena v letu 2010 na reprezentativnem vzorcu 768 policistov iz vseh treh organizacijskih nivojev. Stopnjo integritete policijskih vodij so avtorji merili s pomočjo Perceived Leader Integrity Scale (Chrombach α = ,98.), skrb za skupnost pa so merili s pomočjo Servant Leadership Measure (Chrombach α = ,97).
Ugotovitve:
Rezultati raziskave kažejo, da percepcija integritete policijskih vodij ter njihove vodstvene in delovne izkušnje pomembno vplivajo na njihovo skrb za skupnost, v kateri delujejo, na njihovo zainteresiranost za pomoč ljudem v skupnosti, na vključevanje v aktivnosti skupnosti, kjer delujejo ter na njihovo spodbujanje zaposlenih k prostovoljnemu delu v skupnosti.
Omejitve/uporabnost raziskave:
Raziskava je bila opravljena na zadosti velikem in dobro strukturiranem vzorcu policistov in policistk, da lahko rezultate posplošimo na celotno populacijo. Omejitev raziskave izhaja iz metode merjenja skrbi za skupnost, saj je bila skrb za skupnost ter stopnja integritete merjena kot percepcija s strani policistov.
Praktična uporabnost:
Rezultati so uporabni pri strateškem načrtovanju policijske dejavnosti v Sloveniji, še posebej v okviru krepitve integritete policistov in policijskih vodij ter pri načrtovanju aktivnosti implementacije policijskega dela v skupnosti z vidika vodenja.
Izvirnost/pomembnost prispevka:
Prispevek predstavlja rezultate izvirnega raziskovanja integritete v slovenski policiji in s tem nadgrajuje dosedanja znanja s tega področja.
