The study presents the concept of success characteristics of provincial entrepreneurs. It approaches success as a social representation and interprets it in relation to entrepreneurial identity. The concepts of success, explored by interviews, demonstrate the hypotheses relating to social representation in different ways. Based on the social representation-shaping form from the interviews, the entrepreneurs fall under two main groups. In the success representation of the first group success is perceived as a phenomenon which cannot occur in their world. The entrepreneurs of the other group perceived success as something they can be reached by themselves and they identify it with happiness, well-performed work, with the acceptance by their social environment, the length of the distance which they have covered in the social sphere or with the favourable position compared to the not chosen path of life.

The author investigates whether empathy constitutes the main dimension of the representation of love. The participants were acquainted with two tales telling of the beginning of a love story. The experimental group integrates discursive marks showing the empathic ability of the speaker towards his/her partner. No such marks of empathic ability existed in the control group. The participants assess the more or less prototypic nature of love in these two stories. The results show that a story is acknowledged as being more representative of love when the speaker is empathic than when he is not; but also that a dimension of inter-sex rivalry may modify this process: when the impression of intenseness of love expressed by the story decreases, empathy is only perceived positively when it testifies to the mastery of the relationship by someone of the same sex as the participant.
