The report deals with the construct of life satisfaction in connection with personality factors in a group of Slovak teachers. The aim is to analyze the life satisfaction of teachers and its correlation with selected personality features. The research sample consisted of 197 teachers. To acquire data we used the life satisfaction questionnaire, the NEO-FFI (five-factor personality inventory), and the RSES (Rosenberger scale of self-esteem). The research revealed a significant correlation between life satisfaction and NEO-FFI personality variables with the exception of openness to experience. It was shown that important predictors of life satisfaction are neuroticism, extraversion and self-esteem.

The idea of the hierarchy of the sciences has a strong tradition especially in the sociology of science. It is shown that organisations of sciences according to various criteria are very similar: “hard”, exact and theoretical disciplines are always placed at one end of the continuum, and “soft”, social or applied sciences at the other end. The aim of this study is to find connections between a position of a science at the hierarchy and personality traits of its representatives. The research sample consists of 132 experts from Palacký University in Olomouc who have been administrated three personality inventories (NEO-FFI, PSSI, SSI). The results suggest that representatives of the “soft sciences” incline to extraversion, openness to experience, and emotional expressivity more than representatives of the exact disciplines. “Soft sciences” experts also score relatively high on the PSSI-scale ambitious/narcissistic and endearing/histrionic style, and low on the PSSI-scale reserved/schizoid style. Research findings are interpreted in the context of Baron-Cohen E-S theory and the psychology of science.

Idea hierarchického řazení vědních oborů má silnou tradici především v sociologii vědy. Ukazuje se, že uspořádání věd podle různých kritérií jsou si velmi podobná: na jednom konci kontinua jsou vždy umístěny „tvrdé“, exaktní a teoretické obory a na druhém konci „měkké“, společenské nebo aplikované vědy. Cílem našeho výzkumu bylo najít souvislosti mezi pozicí vědy v této hierarchii a osobnostními rysy jejích představitelů. Výzkumný soubor tvořilo 132 odborníků z Palackého univerzity v Olomouci, kterým byly administrovány tři osobnostní inventáře (NEO-FFI, SSI, PSSI). Výsledky nasvědčují tomu, že představitelé „měkkých věd“ inklinují k extraverzi, otevřenosti vůči zkušenosti a k emocionální expresivitě víc než zástupci exaktních oborů. Odborníci na „měkké vědy“ měli také relativně vysoké skóry na škálách ctižádostivý/narcistický a příjemný/histrionský PSSI a nízké na škále rezervovaný/schizoidní. Výsledky výzkumu interpretujeme v kontextu E-S teorie Barona-Cohena a poznatků psychologie vědy.

The study described in the present paper aimed to account for all the three dimensions of learners’ strategic self-regulation, i.e. cognitive, affective, and sociocultural-interactive language learning strategies (LLS) (Oxford 2011), and attempted to explore their relationships with learners’ personality and other individual variables, such as gender, type of university and area of studies, or the level of proficiency in English. The participants of the study, who formed a representative sample of BA/BS students of AMU and WSB University (722 students in total), completed two questionnaires, a Polish adaptation of SILL ver. 7.0 (Oxford 1990), and the adaptation of NEO-FFI recommended by the Polish Association of Psychology (Zawadzki et al. 2010) for research. The goodness criteria for psychometric research tools (Hornowska 2007) were analysed for both questionnaires. The obtained results confirm the role of most of the above-mentioned individual characteristics in strategy choice, validate the importance of learners’ personality in language learning, and provide evidence of the significance of openness to experience in learning a foreign language.

The article attempts to apply the concept of interpersonal distances expressed in literary texts through forms of address to measure the degree of openness to experience. The starting point for the proposed considerations is the theory of personal distances, psychophysical distance and the theory of Carl Rogers. According to Rogers, openness to experience is the key to success, because the human body is able to change quickly and flexibly under the influence of learned new experiences. As a result, people with a high degree of openness to experience choose situations and events that positively affect their overall development. The analysis was based on two contemporary plays: Requiem for the hostess by Wiesław Myśliwski and The Fourth Sister by Janusz Głowacki. The research aimed to determine whether there is a relationship between the desire to reduce the interpersonal distance between the sender and the recipient of the message and the degree of openness to experience. Another research task was to assess the effectiveness of the original research construct and to answer the question whether the theory of interpersonal distances presented in this article can be used in real terms in relation to individuals. The analyzed statements of the heroes of the two selected dramas indicate the correlation between the desire to reduce the interpersonal distance and the degree of openness to experience.

W artykule podjęta została próba zastosowania koncepcji dystansów interpersonalnych, wyrażanych w tekstach literackich poprzez formy adresatywne, do pomiaru stopnia otwartości na doświadczenia (zgodnie z teorią Carla R. Rogersa) u wybranych bohaterów tekstów literackich. Zdaniem C. Rogersa, otwartość na doświadczenie jest kluczem do sukcesu, gdyż organizm człowieka – pod wpływem przyswajanych nowych doświadczeń – jest w stanie szybko i elastycznie się zmieniać. W efekcie osoby o wysokim stopniu otwartości na doświadczenia wybierają sytuacje i zdarzenia pozytywnie wpływające na ich ogólny rozwój. Punkt wyjścia dla proponowanych rozważań stanowi teoria dystansów personalnych, dystansu psychofizycznego oraz koncepcja Carla Rogersa. Celem podrzędnym artykułu jest ocena skuteczności konstruktu badawczego i odpowiedź na pytanie, czy prezentowana w niniejszym artukule koncepcja dystansów interpersonalnych może być realnie wykorzystywana w stosunku do jednostek ludzkich, jak również odpowiedź na pytanie, czy istnieje zależność pomiędzy dążeniem do zmniejszenia dystansu interpersonalnego między nadawcą i odbiorcą komunikatu a stopniem otwartości na doświadczenia C. Rogersa.

Feelings of being deprived in comparison to similar others have occupied authors from multiple disciplines, primarily as a potential predictor of various individual and societal outcomes, especially among youth. The present study, however, aims to explore whether this subjective relative deprivation, both individual and collective, can itself be predicted from particular personality variables, to shed more light on individual dispositions that lead to (un)favorable perceptions of contextual circumstances. Therefore, within the frame of Relative Deprivation Theory, this correlational study, including 735 participants recruited through the public educational system in Bosnia and Herzegovina (mean age 18.72; SD=1.54), indicated that lower levels of self-esteem and openness to experience, and higher levels of neuroticism and sensation-seeking are associated with higher relative deprivation. Canonical regression analysis revealed a statistically significant relationship between personality and relative deprivation, deriving a significant canonical root (λ of .799, F(8,1384)=20.583, p=.000), accounting for 21% (rc=.444) of the variance shared between the variable sets. Personality traits’ contribution to the collective relative deprivation was lower than to the individual. The article analyzes the role that selected personality traits might play in the perception of one’s deprivation. Recommendations are given regarding future research to include a more diverse set of personality traits as predictors.
