The article presents the results of the teamwork of elementary school teachers in Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk and Odessa regions on the problems of elementary school teachers and schoolchildren’s social competence. The method of qualimetric models has been described as methods of elementary school teacher’s social competence development in post-graduate education (illustrated on the example of schoolchildren’s social competence). Methodological basis of the research involves general scientific theory and methods (philosophical theory of scientific cognition, dialectical method, systemic and environmental approaches, modeling as a method of modern scientific cognition, methods of organizing, schematization and classification of information), sociological practices (questionnaires, interviews, observation and teacher expert evaluation); quantitative methods of data processing. The concept of «elementary schoolchild’s social competence» has been defined as a systemic and multicomponental formation, demonstrating scientifically grounded requirements for knowledge and skills of elementary schoolchildren, enabling productive collaboration with various partners in a group or team, performing various roles and functions in a team in a changing social environment; its structural components have been stated. The characteristics of the concept are fully reflected in the concept of «elementary school teacher’s social competence».It is proved that the development of the model of schoolchild’s social competence, with the primary and secondary factors and criteria defined, promotes teacher’s awareness of the nature and structure of «elementary school teacher’s social competence», the possibility of self-assessment of his own level of social competence development, provides efficiency in socializing of schoolchildren. The practical novelty of the research is to develop a qualimetric model of elementary school children’s social competence and to prove the possibility of its application to assess the overall level of elementary school children’s social competence, to state its relevance with the standards, to identify failure critical points (abnormal intervals), the relationship between components (avoiding the negative factors at the stage of forming experiment), rating etc. The proposed model has been tested. The results of the statistical analysis of the data have been presented; the conclusion concerning its validity has been made.

The aim of the study was to determine the structure of social competences of professional foster parents using the Social Competence Questionnaire A. Matczak (2001). The study included 167 professional foster parents carrying out family emergency tasks in the Śląskie and Małopolskie voivodships. Research results show that more than half of the respondents are characterized by an average, and more than one-third by a high level of social competence. Compared to the results of the general population, foster mothers have significantly higher competences on the intimacy scale, and foster fathers on the assertiveness scale. In comparison with representatives of other social professions (nurses, family assistants), foster mothers have significantly higher social competences in the intimacy scale compared to nurses. In comparison with family assistants, the results obtained are comparable.

In the article the author reveals the possibilities of the development of social competence of students with special needs in the educational process of the higher educational establishment. The origin and meaning of the term "social competence" were analyzed; interdisciplinary connections in the interpretation of the concept were defined. The investigation of the problem of receiving higher education by people with special needs was thoroughly carried out and the structure and content of the concept were detailed, that allowed to determine the specifics of the process of the organization of the educational work in this area in the higher educational establishment. In reference materials social competence is defined as a complex entity, reflecting the level of adequacy and effectiveness of the human response to the problematic life situations, achieving real goals in a specific social context, the using of appropriate methods for it and positive development as a result of their own activity in society, confirmation of adequacy of social behavior by others, ability to participate in a complex system of interpersonal relationships and to understand other people. The content of social competence is multidimensional as the competence itself, it largely depends on the specifics of the social situation, in which there is a formation of this competence of the personality and in which acquired knowledge, skills and personal characteristics are realized. Thus, despite the fact that the content of the investigated concept is determined by the social context, the essence of social competence is understood as the social construct, the formation of which is caused by the act of external factors of a particular social situation. The structure of social competence is defined as from the point of specific requirements of external environment, and as basing on established scientific views on the structure of personality. Understanding social competence as an integrative personality formation, which combines social knowledge, abilities, behavioral skills in a system that allows to integrate internal and external resources to achieve socially important goals and solve problems in different social situations with a clear understanding of their role in this process, in its structure three major components will be considered – cognitive (information, social knowledge, education, awareness), value-significant (values, ideals, motivation, moral milestones) and component of activities (actions, doings, behavioral strategies).

Language skills provide preschoolers with the foundational skills needed to socially interact, but little is known about the relationship between specific language skills and broad constructs of social competence. Sixteen preschoolers between 3-5 years with varying language abilities were recruited. Descriptive and correlational analyses were conducted to examine the relationships between language and social competence. The main finding of this study showed that early literacy skills and word knowledge and retrieval were significantly correlated with Social Independence and Social Interaction respectively. These findings support the notion that the content of preschoolers’ conversations rather than the accuracy of their speech or syntax is associated with success in social interaction and social independence.

Social competence (SC) is one of the most important competences required for successful performance of the teaching profession. Strengthening students’ social and emotional competences provides aid and support for lifelong learning and social and emotional implementation of the teaching process. By triangulating the results of a questionnaire, sociometry and interviews with students of teacher study, a significant level of social competence was observed. Students’ sociometric status is not in full accordance with their self-assessment of SC, so more frequent are the allocations of popular students, but one rejected. SC is usually acquired in the family; college is placed in second place, which increases the importance of this issue in terms of intentional education.

Despite the continuous deepening, development and enlargement, the members of the European Union still diverge in their policies and have to find a way to diminish this divergence. The social, economical and cultural significance of sport is well known in the whole of Europe. Accordingly, in the recent past, the various institutions of the European Union have come to pay more attention to sport issues. An important milestone of this was the European Commission issuing a White Paper on sport, and the inclusion of sport in the Lisbon Treaty. However the question is raised: Is there a European public policy of sport? The author's objective was to investigate this question. This paper aims to highlight the European sport policy and tries to find the answer to the following question: can we talk about European public policy in the field of sport? The research examines through the analysis of documents whether sport can be regarded as an element of public policy. We can talk about common public policy of a certain area if it corresponds to the following five criteria: content, social competence, coercive factor, normative orientation and programme. In the first part, the content and the social competence are analyzed, and then some critical issues of the definition, namely of the public policy will be discussed. In the opinion of the author, the most problematic criterion is the programme, which presumes at least a mid-term European sport conception. It is especially important that sport could fulfil its community building, identity-forming role to which it is suited in the continuously enlarging Europe. Finally the author draws the conclusion that the European sport policy corresponds partly to the above-mentioned criteria; however, the realization of the Pierre de Coubertin Action Plan included in the White Paper, and the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty can create opportunities for sport to become a public policy of the European Union.

Decline of life satisfaction is a common consequence of unemployment together with the negative self-view and lack of personal control. The effectiveness of the training of the social competencies in changing the sense of personal coherence, social beliefs and life satisfaction of the unemployed was probed. Eighty unemployed persons participated in a longitudinal study with a control group. Although the participants did not differ significantly at the beginning of the study, these unemployed persons who participated in the social competencies training reported after 6 months significantly higher sense of personal coherence, more positive vision of social system and enhanced life satisfaction. Unemployed from the control group after 6 months experienced a significant decline in life satisfaction, deterioration of sense of personal coherence and reported more negative vision of social system. The model of impact of social competence training on the change of life satisfaction of the unemployed being mediated by the change of the sense of personal coherence and change in system justification was tested and proved to fit the data. In conclusion, training social competence of unemployed may be crucial to prevent a decline of their life satisfaction and enhance the belief in their own abilities to cope with the stressful experience of being unemployed.

In the article it is stated that the boarding school pupils are remarkably different from the children who attend secondary school.Economic, social and psychological problems faced by a child influence the formation of his/her life guidelines, distort social attitudes, make it difficult to adapt to life in society, because he has no independent living skills, the abilities of domestic self-stereotypes, positive family relationships. As a result, a young man, who was taken care of in the boarding school, appears unprepared for independent life of becoming of the age of discretion. The process of socialization of the child, who was in a boarding institution, is fundamentally different from that the most home kids have. The so-called “closed” life ensures that the environment outside the boarding school may not be apparent and foreign to the pupils of the boarding school, or they may have inadequate representation about it, and leads to the fact that they do not form the survival skills, adapt to new living conditions, the skills of integration in new social groups, practice of interaction and behaviour in different situations in early adult life are absent. In boarding schools there are also problems as to the realisation of educational content, improvement of the forms and methods of training and education, methodological support of the educational process. Many pupils of boarding schools as a result of the definite deformation of the development are socially and psychologically maladjusted, with deviations in behaviour, increased aggression and so on. It is necessary to improve the system of educational work, aimed at the formation of children’s vital skills for independent living. In addition, at most boarding schools there are observed the negative trends to excessive care of children, which leads to ignorance of their duties, as opposed to the rights, the removal from feasible and necessary household labour. To form vital competence of graduates of boarding schools, to prepare for a smooth entry into the community, into adulthood is the main task of boarding schools.

Patriotyzm to jednocześnie dbanie o kulturę i piękno ojczystego języka.
