Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between GLS and risk-taking by male and female learners from Grammar School in Osijek. In theoretical part learning strategies particularly grammar learning strategies were explained, the term risk-taking in EFL was defined and explained, earlier studies on the topic grammar learning strategies and risk-taking in EFL were presented. In experimental part attention is paid to use of particular grammar learning strategies, how these strategies correlate with risk-taking in EFL and other variables affecting the choice of strategies. The results show negative correlation between strategies of active learning, remembering, social strategies, visual strategies and risk-taking. Positive correlation was found between strategies of self-discovery and risk-taking.

Parallel abstract (Croatian)
Ovo istraživanje bavi se odnosom između strategija učenja gramatike i spremnosti na rizik kod muških i ženskih ispitanika Jezične gimnazije u Osijeku. U teorijskom dijelu opisane su strategije učenja, s naglaskom na strategijama učenja gramatike, objašnjen je pojam spremnost na rizik te su prikazana ranija istraživanja na ovu temu. U eksperimentalnom dijelu pažnja je posvećena uporabi određenih strategija učenja gramatike, odnosu između strategija i spremnosti na rizik u učenju engleskog jezika te ostalim varijablama koje utječu na izbor strategija. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da uporaba strategija aktivnog učenja gramatike, strategija pamćenja gramatike, društvenih strategije učenja gramatike te strategija vizualnog učenja gramatike smanjuje spremnost na rizik. Istraživanje također pokazuje da se uporabom strategija samostalnog otkrivanja gramatike povećava spremnost na rizik.
