The research examines the attitudes to national culture and traditions, and a system of values. Analyses were conducted in 2003 (a sample of 325 students), and in 2008 (a sample of 379 students), and in 2013 (a sample of 368 students). It was assumed that (1) there are differences between three groups in acceptance of attitudes and (2) that attitudes to national culture and tradition depend on the value system. The Rokeach’s concept provides the theoretical background. The results of research allow stating that most students underline the significance of national heritages. The lowest acceptance of national heritage was observed in 2008. Moreover, attitudes depend on the value system: a positive attitude to culture and traditions of the own nation is connected with the higher preference of collective values, whereas the acceptance of cultural integration with the western countries is linked with individual values.

W niniejszym badaniu określono postawy wobec ustroju ekonomicznego i kwestii socjalnych oraz dokonano diagnozy systemu wartości (Skala Wartości Rokeacha). Założono, że postawy uzależnione są od preferencji wartości „wolność” i „równość”. Wartości te stanowią podstawę modelu ideologii politycznej Rokeacha. W badaniu wzięło udział 1072 studentów pedagogiki i zarządzania. Uzyskane wyniki pozwoliły stwierdzić, że postawy były w największym stopniu determinowane nie przez wartości „wolność” i „równość”, ale przez wartość „zbawienie”. Kto cenił wyżej „zbawienie”, ten występował przeciw liberalnym zasadom w gospodarce i opowiadał się za ideą państwa opiekuńczego.

In this research attitudes towards economic system and social issues were measured as well as value system (Rokeach Value Survey). It was assumed that the attitudes depend on preference of “freedom” and „equality”, which are the basic values for the model of political ideology of Rokeach. The sample of 1072 students from department of pedagogy and department of management was examined. Analysis of data revealed that it is not „freedom” and „equality” but „salvation“ which have greatest influence on attitudes. The one who valued higher „salvation“ was against liberal rules in economics and favour the idea of welfare state.

W niniejszym badaniu określono postawy wobec wolności politycznej i osobistej (posłużono się zestawem poglądów, które odnosiły się do wolności we wskazanym obszarze) oraz dokonano diagnozy systemu wartości (Skala Wartości Rokeacha). Założono, że postawy uzależnione są od preferencji wartości „wolność”. Sposób rozumienia wartości i postaw (jak również ich wzajemnych relacji) przejęty został z teorii M. Rokeacha. Uznawane są one za elementy systemu przekonań, pomiędzy którymi zachodzi formalny i funkcjonalny związek. W badaniu wzięło udział 704 studentów pedagogiki i zarządzania. Uzyskane wyniki pozwoliły stwierdzić, że akceptacja wolności politycznej i osobistej wiązała się z wyższą preferencją wartości „wolność”, chociaż zależności te były na granicy istotności statystycznej.

In this research attitudes towards political and personal freedom (the set of views which referred to freedom in aspects mentioned above was used) were measured as well as value system (Rokeach Value Scale). It was assumed that the attitudes depend on preference of the value ‘freedom’. The way of understanding values and attitudes as well as their mutual relations ware adopted from M. Rokeach’s theory. They are regarded as elements of a system of beliefs, among which formal and functional relations take place. The sample of 704 students from department of pedagogy and department of management was examined. Analysis of data revealed that the acceptance of political and personal freedom was connected with higher preferences of the value of ‘freedom’ but dependences were in the edge of statistical relevance.

This article attempts to analyze the attitude of family assistants towards the selected principles adopted in the proposed ethical code. The aim of the research was also to diagnose the scope of values which the respondents encountered in the course of their education and which have been selected from the presented proposal. It has been assumed that the values constitute an important tool for persons who provide professional assistance to families, affecting the level of efficiency of the tasks they perform. The research has revealed that respect for other people was the most important element for the respondents. At the same time, most of them encountered this feature in the course of their education. The following principles were also rated highly by the subjects: “treating the clients as partners and experts on their own lives”, “working with the family instead of controlling it” and “listening to people”. It seems that the principles considered the most important by the respondents in their work are also ranked as the most important ones by theoreticians dealing with the professionalization of the family assistants. The study presents only the axiological framework of the family assistance practice which, undoubtedly, requires further in-depth research. The aim of this paper was to draw the attention of the persons involved in family assistance to the issues connected with professionalization of the family assistants and to emphasize that professional ethics is an indispensable part of their work, having a decisive effect on the success of that work.

The world system, understood as one organism, from time to time experiences an attack by “microorganisms” interested in its annihilation or at least in its weakening. A few years ago, this role was played by the Islamic State, with the goal of fighting the rotten, hypocritical and injust international system. According to the Islamists, this system included all countries of the world, as well as Muslims who did not swear allegiance to the Caliph Baghdadi. The Islamic State was a state entity completely different from any other country in the world. It was not recognized by anyone, it was not a member of the United Nations, or any existing international organization. Even though, as a state, it was not recognized by anyone, Daesh was recognized by everyone as a terrorist organization that should be exemplarily and comprehensively annihilated. The ideology used by the Islamic State was Salafism as an apocalyptic response to the injustice and lie of the “system”. Poverty, the lack of a radical and comprehensive ideological alternative for people who are excluded, angry at the lack of perspectives, meaninglessness, double standards and hypocrisy have fueled the Islamists. Utopism for complete equality resembled the first Bolsheviks or early Christians, with the motto “there is no Greek or Jew”. The Islamic State, driven by Salafism, has thrown down the gauntlet to the world order, largely created by the West. This time the world system defeated the “microbes” that were attacking it. Its “guardians”: politicians, journalists, philosophers and religious leaders should, however, think deeply about the condition of the “immune system” for the future, re-evaluate some of the ways of functioning and the dominant norms that govern the system, because successive victories over successive “microbes” in changing civilisational conditions are not at all obvious.

The article contributes to the body of knowledge about the perceptions of future managers (i.e. business and engineering students) in both Slovenia and a cluster of Central European (CE) countries regarding actual cultural practices in their social environments, the value systems they possess and their attitudes to leadership styles. The main question addressed is whether future Slovenian managers are good representatives of the average future manager from CE (transitional) countries as far as their value system and attitudes to individual leadership styles are concerned.The research results confirm that the Slovenian (potential) future managers perceive actual cultural practices in their environment rather differently from their counterparts from the cluster of CE countries. Two decades of transition from socialist/communist socio-economic systems were apparently not long enough periods to achieve a higher level of harmonisation of existing cultures. The relevant value systems held by the Slovenian (potential) future managers and the CE cluster's future managers still differ significantly. The Slovenian future managers have (statistically) significantly different attitudes to individual leadership styles than their counterparts in the CE countries' cluster. The smallest differences in perceptions between the two stated groups of (potential) future managers exist regarding their views on what are the most important traits and skills of managers.

Ambiguous status of adolescents who are no longer children, while not yet adults clearly attracted Aleksandr Kuprin’s attention. In his works we find a large group of teenage girls and boys. There are also both reflections on rapid physical, physiological and psychological changes characteristic of this period as well as their impact on relationships with other people. Apart from that, Kuprin presents nightmares of puberty (fear, rebellion, alienation , loneliness and the desire to be understood at the same time, the need to be part of a group, sacrum of infatuation and profanum of nascent sensuality).

The paper examines problems in measuring the importance and ranking of objects (values, attributes) in hierarchies. Using the example of selected ultimate values and the characteristics of bank service, a comparison was carried out on results obtained through the application of an estimated non-comparative and comparative scales as well as two other comparative scales. Four groups of people distinguished on the basis of the stability of their opinions on the question of the importance of the objects under consideration and the ability to place it in a hierarchical order. Slight differentiation in the answers to the non-comparative scales and a lack of hierarchical structure among individuals from the groups with inconsistent opinions was discovered. A new method that enables a hierarchical structure to be revealed is presented. It can be applied to every group of objects (values, product attributes) even when there are numerous elements of the group being considered.

Aim. The aim of the paper was to point out that the hierarchy of values is considered the most reliable prognostic sign that expresses whether a person can behave in accordance with his environment. The author identifies the causes of the current crisis of value orientations, discusses the influence of family and school on the creation and transformation of values in the lives of young people. Methods. Through analytical-synthetic and inductive methods, the author identifies the influence of consumer society and family on the creation of value systems of children and youth. It points to the pedagogy of free time and its connection to the theories and functions of free time. Results. The author provides a summary of theoretical meanings, summaries and theories in the field of value orientation of children and youth, discovered factors that influence the development and formation of value orientation, discovered the share of family, peers and free time in the creation of a value ranking. Conclusions. Any changes in society brought a wider spectrum of information, freedom of speech, opportunities for social mobility and education, but also deepening of social inequality, deterioration of interpersonal relations, moral relativism and value chaos. Current problems of society's development and their solution also affect the way of life of young people, the process of its quantitative changes, including attitudes to life and value orientation.

The author assumes an axiological understanding of culture (‘the culture is a system of man’s intrinsic values’). In his view, the spiritual history of mankind has been dominated by three forms of culture: primitive (xenophobic, naturalistic, related to security, collectivistic), traditional (hierarchic, idealistic, ascetic, collectivist or individualistic) and contemporary (egalitarian, utilitarian, hedonistic, auto-centric). They have appeared consecutively. Today they function side by side.

The subject of my article is a reconstruction of Zbigniew Herbert’s value system. For this reason, I analyse his poems from an aesthetical and ethical perspective. Is it possible that the poetic imagination not only reflects a point of view, but also forms moral attitudes? It can be inquired whether besides being an obligation towards imagination, the duty of poets and poetry may as well be a kind of habituation, or the formation of „value tables”, or Aristotelian practising of good habits and patterns. Can Herbertian „taste” become an aesthetical version of conscience when an ethical perspective is replaced by an aesthetic one? Can it be used as weapons against the banality and triviality of evil? My analysis is supplemented with a comparison of Herbert’s stand to Calderon de la Barca’s and Joseph Conrad’s positions.

Artykuł podejmuje problematykę związku systemu wartości osób zarządzających szkołami oraz stylów kierowania. Na podstawie przeglądu literatury oraz dostępnych raportów zaprojektowano badania pilotażowe. Wstępne wnioski chociaż nie mają charakteru przesądzającego, to potwierdzają wcześniej omówione rezultaty uzyskane w badaniach zrealizowanych w innych środowiskach kulturowych. Wyniki sugerują pewną zbieżność co do dominującego sytemu warto-ści i preferowanego stylu kierowania/przywództwa dyrektorów szkół.

Background. A new era of youth and formation of a new system of values are much talked about. The aim of this study was to describe and explain the relationship between socioeducational factors and the growing popularity of the attitude of fair play among young people undertaking physical activity and at the same time experiencing the formation of a new system of values and morality. Material and methods. The study involved more than 600 senior high school students from 2 kinds of schools: sports-oriented and Christian. The study was conducted in Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot in 2000, 2008 and 2012. Youth for testing were chosen randomly, regardless of affiliation to these schools. The variable that differentiated respondents from these schools was involvement of young people in sport. An auditory survey was used during a lesson in a special research room. Results. General value system in general is an important and significant predictor of attitudes of fair play. High evaluation of the higher-order values, such as the truth, the holy and the moral, are of particular importance for the development of sports morality. Conclusion. A way to change the negative trends in the axiosphere of today’s youth is educating young people in the values of fair play.

This paper aims to reflect on the diversity of the interdictions which are valid in the world of a magic fairy tale, and the consequences caused by violating them. As it turns out, except for taboos expressed in an explicit way, the character of the studied narratives does not follow the rules of folk ethics of the word, and unconsciously contributes to his own or someone else’s physical metamorphosis, or disregards generally accepted moral norms. As a result, he destroys the cosmic order. However, a violation of an interdiction is a necessary condition for the attainment of sociocultural maturity by the protagonist, which is formed through the process of positive initiation. The interpretative context of these considerations takes into account the value system specific to magic stories, reflecting the worldview of a traditional society. The source material used is representative of fairy tale narratives taken from several collections of Russian folk prose.

Wartości stanowią element składowy osobowości człowieka, który wpływa na jego światopogląd, opinie, emocje oraz zachowania. Dotyczy to w równej mierze zachowań kierowniczych, jak też wykonawczych, przy czym w przypadku organizacji ratowniczych, oba poziomy zachowań stanowią równie istotny czynnik efektywności organizacyjnej. Celem artykułu uczyniono ukazanie związku między etycznymi aspektami działań ratowniczych, a systemem wartości reprezentowanym przez ratowników górskich. Zastosowana idiograficzna perspektywa badawcza może stać się przykładem dla badań innych typów organizacji i zespołów pracowniczych.

Values are a component of the human personality that affects a worldview, opinions, emotions and behaviors. This applies equally to managerial and executive behavior, while in the case of rescue organizations, both levels of behavior are also an important factor of organizational effectiveness. The aim of the article is to show the relationship between the ethical aspects of rescue operations and the value system represented by mountain rescuers. The applied idiographic research perspective can become an example for research on other types of organizations and employee teams, including the armed forces.

PL
Artykuł oparty na badaniach empirycznych ukazuje znaczenie systemu wartości, przeżywanych emocji i strategii działania jako czynników motywacyjnych do naruszania lub respektowania prawa. Jednocześnie wyniki badań potwierdzają wpływ czynników sytuacyjnych i warunków socjalizacyjnych na kształt złożonego układu motywacyjnego poszczególnych osób. Mimo niewielkich grup badawczych udało się ustalić zarówno różnice pomiędzy grupą osób skazanych i kontrolną, jak i zróżnicowania w systemie motywacyjnym wewnątrz badanych grup.

The paper is based on empirical research and discusses the importance of value system, emotions and strategies of action as factors which motivate law-abiding and law-breaking behaviors. The findings confirm that situational factors and social conditions do affect the complex configuration of individual motivations. Although the group of research subjects was relatively small, it was still possible to identify differences between the convicts and the control group as well as divergences in motivational systems within researched groups.
