Celem artykułu jest opis diagnozowania w praktyce psychologicznej. Artykuł skupia się na dwóch istotnych problemach diagnozowania opartego na dowodach empirycznych. Pierwszy z nich to zastosowanie EMB w psychologii. Drugi to opis działań i osiągnięć Buros Institute of Mental Measurements. Poddano też dyskusji implikacje dla przyszłości diagnozowania w polskiej praktyce psychologicznej.

The aim of this paper is to describe the practice in psychological assessment and diagnosis in Poland. This article focuses on two key themes in the on evidence-based assessment. The first one is application of EBM in psychology. The second is activity and achievement of the Buros Institute of Mental Measurements. The implications of these themes for the future of psychological assessment practice are discussed.

W artykule porównuje się różne aspekty metod ilościowych i jakościowych. Jednym ze stawianych pytań jest to, jak badacze wybierają paradygmat i związaną z nim metodologię. Czy jest to efekt różnic w określeniu istoty badanych zjawisk? Być może kluczowym czynnikiem jest odmienność stylów myślenia. Zalety i wady badań jakościowych i ilościowych są przedmiotem odwiecznych gorących dyskusji. Ta polemika raczej zaciemnia niż rozjaśnia i dzieli zamiast łączyć. Czy spór ten ma charakter wewnątrz- czy ponadaparadygmatyczny? Z jednej strony puryści ilościowi uważają, że realizują pozytywistyczne ideały, a z drugiej jakościowi puryści odrzucają pozytywistyczny paradygmat. Głównym jednak pytaniem pozostaje, co ma być celem badania naukowego. W ostatniej części artykułu rekomendowane jest podejście pragmatyczne oraz łączenie metod jakościowych i ilościowych.

This article compares and contrasts some aspects of qualitative and quantitative research approaches. The question is: how does a researcher select a research paradigm and corresponding methodology? Is this choice a consequence of the nature or essence of the social phenomena being investigated? The researcher's thinking style is probably a key factor for the preferred choice of methods. The strengths and weaknesses of qualitative and quantitative research are a perennial and hot themes of debate, especially in psychology. Much of this debate has tended to obfuscate rather than clarify the problem, and to divide rather than unite researchers. Is this the inter-paradigm debate or is it a dispute between competing paradigms? Quantitative purists express assumptions that are consistent with positivist philosophy, whereas qualitative purists reject positivism. However, the major question remains: What is the goal of investigation? The final section of the paper advocates a "pragmatic approach" as a new guiding paradigm and as a basis for supporting work that combines qualitative and quantitative methods.

This article presents the results of correlation studies on the Lack of Control Over Work Scale (LCWS) of the Working Excessively Questionnaire (WEQ), developed by Hornowska and Paluchowski (2007). LCWS consists of items indicating a lack of control over the work sphere, in the cognitive, behavioral and social dimension. The results of the LCWS Scale may be applied to research with the use of WEQ questionnaire as a scree ning tool allowing to differentiate the individuals addicted to work from those who are not in danger of becoming addicted or those who are in the risk group. The aim of our study was to investigate the psychological correlates of the lack of control over work. We formulated hypotheses concerning the relationship between the LCWS and constructs like self-esteem, locus of control, temperamental traits, and sense of mission. We also tested hypothesis concerning demographic factor and the LCWS.

The challenge for psychology is to integrate findings from genetics and environmental (social, biological, chemical) factors, into the study of human behavior and deep understanding of the emergence of different changes in the anatomy, physiology, and chemistry of the nervous system that influence the mental health. Currently, cognitive abilities associated with learning and memory, reasoning, problem solving, and developing relationships are in scope of molecular psychology, which is the study of behavior and its underlying brain systems using the tools of molecular biology. However, studies have demonstrated that DNA sequence variations and rare mutations account for only a small fraction of the risk for inheritance of personality traits and mental illness. The large unaccounted heritability of personality traits and mental health suggest that additional molecular and cellular mechanisms are involved. Various complex gene-environment interactions can lead to different phenotypes. These structural changes may be crucial for the development of mature neural networks that support emotional, cognitive, and social behavior. The generation of different morphology, physiology, and behavioral outcomes from a single genome in response to changes in the environment forms the basis for phenotypic plasticity, which is fundamental to the way organisms cope with environmental variation, navigate the present world, and solve future problems. Epigenetics has major implications for psychology and gives the new answer for the old question- what is the biochemical basis of learning. It is bringing back the leading role of environment and behavior, by including their effects on genome function. In addition, it opens up the possibility of memory being stored in the epigenome, so that our experiences may be embedded in our genome by epigenetic mechanisms. Epigenetics can be described as the study of the complex interactions underlying the development of an organism over its lifetime.
