Although LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional networking site, the research concerning self-presentation on the platform is limited and fragmented. The main goal of the study was to explore the self-presentation of Polish football managers on LinkedIn in four dimensions: completeness and attractiveness of the profile, network-embeddedness, and activity. Using quantitative content analysis of managers’ profiles (N=319), the research shows that the managers exploit the potential of LinkedIn to build their personal professional brand only in a very limited and mostly static way. In addition, the self-presentation in LinkedIn is the best among managers working in Polish Football Association, improves with the length of professional experience, and shows only slight differences between women and men.

Maintaining beauty and youthfulness has always been and still is among the natural desires of women. A modern woman is a woman of success: independent, professionally successful, staying active for many years of her life. This activity as well as the influence of the media induce women to adapt to the existing patterns at all costs. Minimally invasive aesthetic medicine procedures help to repair beauty defects and reduce the ageing processes. They can have a positive influence on life and thinking by increasing well-being and atractiveness as well as helping to get rid of complexes. The aim of this paper is to assess the way in which the minimally invasive aesthetic medicine procedures affect the self-esteem of women and womens' perception of their own body. The study was conducted prospectively using a standardized questionnaire and diagnostic tools examining the perception of one's own body, self-esteem and emotional condition. The procedures performed most often were corrections with the use of hyaluronic acid and the most frequently declared motivation for the surgery was the need to increase sexual attractiveness that follows the first symptoms of aging processes. The undertaken analysis reveals that undergoing various forms of appearance correction has several psychical, physical and social effects. A significant majority of women that decided to undergo the treatments had high or average self-esteem initially, and its levels increased even further after the aesthetic surgery.

The paper focuses on the manner people active within the Committee for the Defence of Democracy present their protests. The author analyses the way the protests’ image presented by the interviewees is built, as well as the sources of its form and content. The aim is to identify the applications of discursive strategies used in the positive self- and the negative other presentation. As it is shown, in the process of discursive construction of the protests, the ‘us’ and ‘them’ dichotomy, and the specific rules that form the basis for the functioning of the public sphere in Poland are applied. Hence, the distinctions are created with nominations (metaphors, naturalising), predications (positive, negative traits) and representations (examples) referring to the figures of civilised and uncivilised men present in the Polish public discourse. Thus, the analysed presentation of the protests can be interpreted as inscribed in the binary structure of civic discourse.

The way companies communicate with stakeholders is, among others, sharing of annual reports containing information on the corporate’s performance. The companies can present financial and non-financial information in a way that will serve their interests, using a variety of narratives. The aim of the study is to present the issues of impression management in the company’s financial reporting and the management strategies used to create the desired image. The method used was an analysis of available literature. The authors were primarily interested in the published research on: (1) the relationship between the following concepts: impression, image, reputation, self-presentation (2) impression management essence (3) impression management strategy in external reporting (4) directions of impression management usage in accounting and reporting. The study is a theoretical basis for further research covering the conduct of Polish companies in the context described.

The article is a reflection on the participatory research conducted by me among the homeless living in the streets of a large city outside the system of institutional aid (2005–2008) and in the environment of homeless people staying in the hostel created within the framework of one of the associations (from 2007 to 2013). The location of these studies within the interpretative orientation ensures an opportunity to get to know the perspective of the Respondents (in this particular case – the homeless). Work on self-presentation is based on the assumption of symbolic interactionism, according to which the basis of interaction is defining the situation, proceeding through interpretation, so reading the meaning of the partner's action and definition, informing the partner about the intentions of action. Therefore, work on self-presentation is an attempt to read the meaning of a partner's activity, based on a specific way of imagining a partner, and thus – the way of treating him and the mechanisms accompanying work on self-presentation.

Self-presentation accompanies us throughout our lives. It is an important factor influencing our interactions with people, able to strengthen our identity and self-esteem or, on the contrary, underlie social fear. Analysing written genres present at school, the author concludes that self-presentation is a category which does not exhaust the notion of genre. He tries to demonstrate that it is possible to distinguish the category of self-presentation gene and, on its basis, the genotype of self-presentation genre at school in the context of genre model and self-presenting textual competence. From this point of view work on self-presentation is an important element of anthropocentric teaching.

This article reviews currently available literature on the role of Instagram in political communication and reports on the results of the analysis of 1976 Instagram posts of the most active politicians during the 2019 European parliamentary election campaign in Poland. With the aid of quantitative thematic analysis and qualitative visual rhetorical analysis, we identify the main patterns of self-representation of candidates and compare the forms of visualization and typical strategies of building ethos and mobilizing the voters across parties. We prove that traditional representations of candidates (delivering speeches, canvassing, shaking hands) and national (rather than European) symbols tend to dominate. We conclude with observations on the increase in personalization of politics, professionalization of political campaigning, and strong communitarian identification.

The aim of the article is to present the way in which the Siberian Healer (Natal’ya Ivanova Stepanova), in her publications, creates her own image and, at the same time, encourages to use magic practices proposed by herself. Magic handbooks and compilations of charms written by Stepanova served as the empirical material. They were the basis to describe manipulative and persuasive linguistic activities used to affect the recipient. The most common of those activities is argumentation, which is usually described as ‘a set of actions taken to justify some view’. The healer – in order to sway recipients to her views – mainly uses the so-called fallacious arguments, such as e.g. argumentum ad populum or argumentum ad metum. She also uses specific lexical and stylistic means.

Poczucie humoru jest cechą pożądaną zarówno w związkach romantycznych, jak i przyjacielskich a ludzie komunikują swoje poczucie humoru poprzez opowiadanie żartów. Istnieją jednak różnice płciowe w żartowaniu, gdyż mężczyźni opowiadają dowcipy częściej niż kobiety. Korzyści jakie mężczyźni czerpią z żartów wiążą się z takimi podstawowymi motywami społecznymi, jak poszukiwanie i utrzymywanie partnera, przynależność do grupy i zwiększanie bezpieczeństwa. Mniej wiadomo jednak na temat relacji między skłonnością do opowiadania dowcipów a ogólnymi stylami autoprezentacji, czyli taktycznymi sposobami zachowania, które mogą być wykorzystywane w różnych interakcjach społecznych. W naszym badaniu (N = 139 polskich mężczyzn w wieku od 18 do 60 lat [średnia = 29,94, odchylenie standardowe = 11,66]) chcieliśmy zbadać powiązania między stylami autoprezentacji (autopromocją i autoprezentacją), stylami humory (afiliacyjnym, w służbie ego, agresywnym i samodeprecjonującym) oraz skłonnością do opowiadania dowcipów u dorosłych mężczyzn. Odkryliśmy, że mężczyźni skoncentrowani na autopromocji częściej opowiadali żarty a ich style humoru zawierały więcej aspektów afiliacyjnych i wzmacniających samego siebie. Co więcej, stosowanie przez mężczyzn humoru afiliacyjnego całkowicie zapośredniczało związek między autopromocją a tendencją do żartów. Odkryliśmy również, że mężczyźni zorientowani na autodeprecjację częściej używają samodeprecjonującego humoru, ale ich autodeprecjonujące dążenia nie korelują z ich skłonnością do żartowania. Nasze wyniki sugerują, że mężczyźni mogą opowiadać dowcipy, zwłaszcza te zawierające humor afiliacyjny, aby osiągać swoje taktyczne cele związane z autopromocją.

A sense of humor is a desirable characteristic in both romantic and platonic relationships, and people communicate their sense of humor by telling jokes. However, there are sex differences in joking, so men tell jokes more often than women. Men’s benefits from joking correspond with such fundamental social motives, as mate seeking and mate retention, affiliation, and self-protection. However, less is known about the relation between tendency to tell jokes and more general styles of self-presentation, that is, tactical ways of behaving that can be used in many social interactions. In our study (N = 139 Polish men aged 18 to 60 [M = 29.94, SD = 11.66]), we wanted to examine the relationships between self-presentation styles (e.g., self-promotion and self-depreciation), humor styles (e.g., affiliative, self-enhancing, aggressive, and self-defeating), and tendency to tell jokes in adult men. We found that men focused on self-promotion produced humor more often and their humor styles contained more affiliative and self-enhancement aspects. Moreover, men's use of affiliative humor completely mediated the relationship between their self-promotion and their tendency to joke. We also found that men oriented on self-depreciation use more self-defeating humor, but their self-defeating motivation does not correlate with their tendency to joke. Our results suggest that men may tell jokes, especially those involving affiliative humor, to tactically achieve their self-promotion goals.

The author of this article conducted a representative survey (N=1081) to examine the signs of non-clinical narcissism in professional life, human relations, and self-control. He found that people with narcissistic characteristics more often occupy socio-professional positions that place high demands on self-presentation, which means on appearance and demeanour. People with narcissistic characteristics also tend to seek out such professions more often. The interest in obtaining jobs that place high demands on self-presentation is more strongly associated with non-clinical narcissism than with whether or not the individual currently occupies such a position. Respondents with narcissistic characteristics also more often profess better chances of succeeding in such a position. People with narcissistic characteristics typically communicate on two typical levels: ego-confirmative and negotiative. Narcissistic types generally use communication primarily as a means of presenting their idealised Self (ego-confirmative level). However, when respondents who scored as narcissists in the test enter an interaction from which only one side can profit (negotiative comunication), they defend only their own interests and pay little attention to the needs of others. Narcissistic types also exhibit a higher level of self-control, which some criminologists associate with delinquency.

The aim of this article is to present the primary types of autothematic media information and its non-informative functions as well as the objects and methods of linguistic valuation in the messages. Information about the reception of a media offering, information about rewards and successes of a medium, information about non-media undertakings of media broadcasters, and information about an offering were distinguished based on content analysis. By means of a semantic and pragmatic analysis of the expressions used, it was ascertained that the media broadcaster itself is rarely the object of valuation, whereas the events organised by the medium, messages included in its offering, the invited guests and recipients are eagerly granted positive valuations. The overarching value is the positive relationship between the medium and others, the valuation is normally overt and intensive, and the examined messages perform various kinds of promotional tasks.

The Lemkos are an antagonized internally ethnic minority. The beginning of the division dates back to midnineteenth century, when almost simultaneously began to form the Ukrainian national identity and the Lemko separatism. It is also explicitly on the basis of the Lemko organizations created on the wave of democratic changes in Poland. Using of virtual ethnography methodology to analyze the content of websites of three of them: the Lemko Association, the Lemkos Federation and the Association of Ruska Bursa in Gorlice enables to capture significant, not shown explicitly, the differences in outlook, orientation of identity, construction of arguments, embarking strategy, the language used to simultaneous reference to the common universe – the Lemko Land. The Lemko Federation promoting Ukrainian national identity and the Lemko identity is recognized in terms of the regional identity. Two other one associate people with Lemko identity, emphasizing membership to the group of Carpatho-Rusyns. In their e-transmission they show a background of internal conflicts, formulate evaluative judgments and reveal strong emotions.

The study attempts to uncover individual allegorical components of their individual image and partly also the collective identity of the Habsburgs with the help of emblematic manuals and interpretive dictionaries of symbols using more than a dozen preserved occasional poems compiled on the occasion of Leopold I’s marriage to Margaret Theresa in 1666. In terms of genre, this occasional poetry was mainly a diverse range of printed and manuscript epithalamia, celebratory poems (encomia or laudatia), sonnets, odes, poetic genealogies and emblems. In conceiving them, the authors of the panegyric works sought inspiration in the biblical tradition and, above all, in the ancient heritage of Greek and Roman myths, which they ingeniously placed in the current cultural and political contexts.

The authors describe a development of the Czech version of the Over-claiming Questionnaire (OCQ) in relation to the work of Delroy Paulhus. First of all, the authors created the longer version (OCQ-150) and subsequently the shortened version (OCQ-100), which contains 100 items in 10 knowledge-based categories. Each category includes 8 items, which exist and 2 items, which do not exist. By the calculation of the accuracy index and the bias index we can get information about how much a proband has a tendency to distinguish real concepts from the unreal concepts and how much tendency a proband has to accept the concept or reject it. The test confirmed the ability to differentiate between the participants of selection procedure, who have a high motivation for good performance and those from general population without such a motivation. The authors recommend a further use of OCQ-100 for research, especially in the area of selection procedures.

Autoři popisují vznik české verze Dotazníku přehánění vlastních znalostí (OCQ) v návaznosti na práci Delroye Paulhuse. Autoři vytvořili nejprve delší verzi (OCQ-150) a posléze zkrácenou verzi (OCQ-100), která obsahuje 100 položek v 10 znalostních kategoriích. Každá kategorie zahrnuje 8 položek existujících a 2 položky neexistující. Výpočtem indexu přesnosti a zaujatosti lze získat informaci, jakou má proband schopnost odlišovat reálné pojmy od nereálných, a nakolik má tendenci pojem akceptovat či jej odmítat. Test potvrdil schopnost diferencovat mezi účastníky výběrového řízení s vysokou motivací k dobrému výkonu a osobami z běžné populace bez takové motivace. Autoři doporučují další využití OCQ-100 pro výzkum především v oblasti výběrových řízení.

The article comprises an academic reflection on linguistic methods of self-presentation, used on regional television in Arkhangelsk. The material was collected in 2018 when the centre was celebrating its 55th anniversary. Moreover, earlier research in television broadcast in the north of Russia was taken into account. Editorial self-presentation is conducted in different ways. It embraces articles published on the website of the radio station and anniversary materials broadcasted on-air which later are uploaded on the web as podcasts.  Self-presentation is also created by the image of the radio station reconstituted thanks to agenda, daily news feeds from 2018, examined in the context of sources from 2001-2018. Linguistic analysis is the affirmation of the medium’s form which is listener-oriented. What is more, within last few years the growth of axiological dimension was observed (for instance: religious magazines). Some website as well as on-air statements provide a persuasive step in order to create positive self-presentation. The radio station is seemed to be modern, professional and familiar with every human being, who is interested in social problems.

The article aims at finding repetitive content and formal elements visible on the websites of female religious congregations in Poland. These websites are a form of media self-presentation of religious communities, they serve informational purposes and, indirectly, the creation of the image of the congregations. The research covered 93 websites of congregations participating in the Conference of Senior Superiors of Religious Congregations. The author distinguishes 4 aspects of the message that add up to the schemes of self-presentation: 1. basis of identification of the community, 2. areas of self-description, 3. invitation to contact, 4. multimedia. The author indicates a relationship between the presumed collective originator and the undefined recipient of the internet message as a probable cause of the predictable structure of the websites analyzed.

Celem artykułu jest odszukanie powtarzalnych elementów treściowych i formalnych, widocznych na stronach internetowych żeńskich zgromadzeń zakonnych w Polsce. Strony te są formą medialnej autoprezentacji wspólnot zakonnych, służą informacji, a pośrednio – kreacji wizerunku zgromadzeń. Badaniami objęto 93 strony internetowe zgromadzeń, uczestniczących w Konferencji Wyższych Przełożonych Żeńskich Zgromadzeń Zakonnych. Autorka wyodrębnia 4 aspekty przekazu, składające się na schematy autoprezentacji: 1. podstawy identyfikacji wspólnoty, 2. obszary autocharakterystyki, 3. zaproszenie do kontaktu, 4. multimedialność. Jako prawdopodobną przyczynę przewidywalnej struktury analizowanych stron głównych wskazuje się relację między zakładanym zbiorowym nadawcą a niedookreślonym odbiorcą komunikatu internetowego.

The article is devoted to one of the controversial terms of modern translation studies, namely translation strategy. The typologies of translation strategies differ in terms of principles of their identification and justification. The article analyses the Cyberleninka electronic library and 325 scientific articles containing the combination strategy + translation. The results of the analysis showed that in scientific articles the concept of a translation strategy is often used in the abstract/keywords, but at the same time, it is not defined in any way within the article proper. In this case, it is possible to assume that the use of the concept of translation strategy is driven by considerations of self-presentation of the author of a scientific article.

Статья посвящена одному из дискуссионных терминов современного переводоведения – cтратегии перевода. Типологии стратегий перевода отличаются принципами их выделения и обоснования. В статье анализируется 325 научных статей электронной библиотеки Cyberleninka, содержащих сочетание стратегия + перевод. Результаты анализа показали, что в научных статьях понятие стратегии перевода часто используется в аннотации/ключевых словах научной статьи, но в то же время никак не определяется в самом тексте статьи. В таком случае возможно предположить, что использование понятие стратегии перевода продиктовано соображениями самопрезентации автора научной статьи.
