| description | The paper analyse relation of victims toward the offence and their readiness
for victim-offender mediation (VOM). Aims were analysis of feelings,
behaviours and needs of victims regarding the offence, as well as and
analysis of readiness of victims for VOM. 17 mediators assessed 41 victims
and 42 offenders, participants of 41 VOM by Assessment Visit Check List
(Quill, Wynne, 1993). Victims showed strong feelings of bitterness, anger and
grievance more frequently than offenders, while offenders showed feeling of
guilt more frequently than victims. Victims had higher defensive attitude and
self-confidence then offenders. Almost all victims and offenders needed
reparation and agreement with the other party. Most of them wanted to know
more about the other party in conflict and were opened to contacts with him.
The results were discussed in relation to current knowledge. [Projekat
