The paper introduces the issue of application in social psychology of experimental tools and theoretical constructs stemming from related subdomains of experimental psychology. The specificity of this trend, its benefits and its limitations are described. The examples of psychological knowledge integration presented in subsequent sections of the special issue are introduced. Two potential limitations of knowledge integration are characterized: narrowing the methods of investigation to specific paradigms or theoretical perspectives and the reduction of social phenomena to basic perspectives of elementary psychological phenomena. Some ideas for the smart integration of knowledge that reduces abovementioned limitations are proposed.

Individual social capital is the collection of resources that an individual can obtain from his personal social network. This article presents and discuses a proposal for the measurement of this theoretical construct. Questionnaire for the Measurement of Individual Social Capital (Polish abbreviation KPIKS) was created on the basis of the method called "resource generator" proposed by Tom Snijders (1999; Van der Gaag, Snijders, 2004). Validation study was conducted on a group of 120 students. This tool was built in two ver- sions. KPIKS-60 contains 60 items and KPIKS-20 is the short version having 20 questions. Both of them are characterized by high reliability (above 0,8 computed on the basis of Spearman-Brown formuła) and moderate validity. KPIKS is a tentative proposal. It requires expanded examination, especially with respect to further validity analysis and normalization.

Social psychology is plagued by limited replicability of findings. One of the reasons might be that sometimes our findings reveal universal rules of human social conduct; sometimes, however, they reflect a way of thinking and behaving characteristic of a given culture in a given historical time. In this paper I suggest replacing naïve universalism (i.e., simplistic assumption that, whatever we find, it exemplifies general rules of human social behavior) by a more reflective, conscious universalism. In contrast to ethnography or cultural anthropology, social psychology is naturally oriented toward discovering universals. This orientation allows our discipline to maintain intellectual bonds with biology (e.g., theory of evolution, neurophysiology and neuroscience) and the main stream of basic psychological research (e.g., in cognitive and developmental areas). However, instead of taking universality for granted, we should rather ask whether the relationships found are, indeed, universal or culturally varied and deliberately use methodologies appropriate for examining this issue. Also, we should carefully discriminate between a genuine culture-specific relationship and a general relationship in “cultural dressing” (i.e., its cultural instantiation).

The article draws a program of studying upward social mobility that places individuals' perspective at its center. In individual-centered perspective socialist society can be viewed as a conglomerate of individual self-protective activities aming at the job acquisition in its institutions. The analysis of historic field therefore means the analysis of studying the individuals' life situations. These situations are to be studied as sets of circumstances, stemming from individuals' position in social structure, their biography as well as from broader historical setting. The task of upward social mobility analysis concentrating on individual is the study of the role of emotions and cultural behavior that accompanies the situation of transition (to the public sector, from unqualified to qualified jobs as well as into managerial positions).

The article deals with three phenomena (namely those of evil, power and violence) as approached by three prominent thinkers: social psychologist Ph. Zimbardo, philosopher H. Arendt and culture critic and philosopher S. Žižek. The elucidation of the relationships between the phenomena at issue bears empirical as well as political ethical character, bringing to the foreground similarities and differences between these three thinkers. In conclusion, the stress is put on the need for abstract ethical and social- political considerations to take into account the empirical researches in social psychology.

It is considered that during the last 20 percent of the negotiation process participants make as much as 80 percent of all concessions, whereas during the first 20 percent of the negotiation time they are wasting their time. We conducted analyses of the processes of negotiations of 19 negotiation role-playing games. The analyses were conducted on the basis of the Dynamical Negotiation Network (DNN) model. The results prove that during the early stages of a negotiation important processes take place, which influence the final outcome of the negotiation.
