Optimism is defined as dispositional tendency to have positive (but not negative) expectancies about future and is linked with physical and psychological well-being in adults. Research on the importance of optimism and pessimism in children is limited in Poland by the lack of a developmentally appropriate measure. To test reliability and validity of the Polish adaptation of Youth Life Orientation Test (YLOT) (Ey et al., 2005) 201 students (9 to 20 years old) were surveyed (in two samples). Factor analyses confirmed the factor reliability and recognized the two factor (pessimism and optimism) structure of the Polish version of YLOT. The reliability and stability of the measure were confirmed for both subscales. The expected associations between the Polish version of YLOT and related measures of self-esteem, anxiety, hope and personality traits (neuroticism, extraversion and agreeableness) provided support for the validity of the test.

Research described in this article concerns economic psychology and economic socialization of children. A research model conducted from a review of literature, assumes that children's saving attitudes, motives and behaviors depend on socio-demographic variables, methods of economic education and child's temperament. To answer the questions about the correlation between mentioned variables, answers of 77 children (between 8 and 11 years old) and their parents in surveys constructed for the research purpose and in EAS-C temperament questionnaire were analyzed. The results revealed several changes that occurred in Poland in the field of children's saving attitudes and behaviors during recent years. Furthermore there was confirmed the existence of important correlations between socio-demographic variables, economic education style, temperament characteristics and children's saving attitudes, motives and behaviors. The results are discussed in relation to previous research conducted in these areas.
