This paper presents the results of empirical research that examined the forms of support and participation of Croatian high school students in the “School Strike for Climate Croatia” climate strikes, as well as some individual and contextual determinants of their attitudes and participation. The research was conducted using the online survey method in 2020 and 2021 on a convenient sample of final years of Croatian high school students (N=534). The results show that about 8% of the students were in some way actively connected with the strikes. Using the analysis of the main components, three types of student attitudes towards the protest and the protesters were determined: “protesters fighting for environmental protection”, “protesters as universal activists” and “supportive protesters”. In addition, multivariate analysis tested the effect of socio-demographic characteristics together with the constructs of perception of collective efficacy, environmental concern, ecological worldview, and attitudes about Greta Thunberg as the initiator of the global Fridays for Future movement on established attitudinal structures. The determinants involved were shown to be statistically significant predictors, although not in the same way for each of the three attitudinal dimensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
