Research conducted to date has evidenced the importance of single resources for adaptation to illness. The aim of the presented study was to take into account many resources so as to determine their structure and the way of utilization in various patient groups. The Resourcefulness for Recovery Inventory (Celinski, Antoniazzi, 2001) measuring 18 personal and social resources was used for this purpose. Participants in the study were 115 patients (68 men, 47 women) suffering from cardiovascular or rheumatoid diseases, or from cancer. The patients were found to utilize cognitive, emotional and behavioral resources, as well as social support in their adaptation to illness. The highest level of resource utilization was found in the cardiac group, and the lowest - in cancer patients.

The article tackles the theme of local identity, viewed in the perspective of migration processes that led to the formation of the local communities of Western and Northern Territories. Analysis focuses on the town of Bialy Bór and the changes of identity that occur on its area. The text sketches the generational differentiation of the character of local identity in the dimension of references to the past of the group and the sense of territorial belonging. Another problem taken up by the author is viewing the ongoing changes through the lens of cultural diversity characteristic for the local community studied, and how the activity of the Ukrainian minority inhabiting the town affected the shape of the local identity of its residents.

Scholars who study the problem of Polish Tatars assume a variety of perspectives in their analyses; some look for hard determinants of ethnic distinctiveness, while others allow those interested speak for themselves and just listen to their reflections or watch the activities they undertake on account of their shared identity. Adopting the latter perspective in her analysis, the author treats Tatar culture as a symbolic source, which is used by its creators, hosts or heirs in a variety of ways in social relations, for a range of reasons, and in multiple circumstances in order to give meaning to the world. On this understanding, the vision of ethnicity does not presuppose the existence of a set of cultural characteristics inherent in a group. It assumes that ethnicity is produced by social practices. In her article the author shows how Polish Tatars 'do' culture in response to their own needs and the needs of the social milieu in which they function.
