The main aim of this study was to focus specifically on the area of self-care and identify correlation between self-regulation and performed activities in the sphere of self-care. In this study, self-care is conceptualized as a much broader phenomenon. Instead of focusing only on health, physical well-being, psychological well-being and personal development are seen as important parts of self-care. Self-care contains a self-regulatory activating and inhibiting component. For this reason, we also constructed and verified structure a new questionnaire for measuring performed actions in the sphere of self-care: Performed self-care actions. 713 respondents participated in the research. Based on the factor analysis three factors of questionnaire Performed self-care actions were extracted. The results supported strong, positive correlations between self-care self-regulation and self-care performed actions.

The aim of this paper is to clarify: the nature of the performed activities related to health care during aging, particularly in middle and later adulthood, and senior age and to clarify the correlation between health care and the perception of risk (harm) factors such as alcohol use, drug or internet use. The sample consists of 302 respondents at the age between 35 and 80 years (M = 58.56, SD = 13.82). For data collection Performed self-care actions (Lovaš, Hricová, 2015) and Risk perception questionnaire (Lovaš, Mésznerová, 2014) are used. It is shown that in the middle adulthood the most frequent strategy is the health care of one´s psychological wellbeing. On the contrary, in the senior age, preferred activities are associated with the health preservation and health problems prevention. Development trend that lies in the decreasing character of performed self-care activities in the area of physical wellbeing and increasing of self-care activities related with health problems is confirmed. The average values of perceived risk suggest that the period of middle age is the most sensitive to the perception of risk. The results showed further that the subjects were more concerned about their physical well-being, body and health and that the more intense substance abuse (alcohol, drugs) was perceived as threatening. Actions performed of self-care to health threats positively correlated with risk taking of soft and hard drugs. Self-care and risk avoidance can be considered a lifelong strategy that could affect the quality of aging.

The research studies focus on several consequences of helping work which can be experienced by helping professionals most often – compassion satisfaction (Stamm, 1999; Stamm, 2010), compassion fatigue (Figley, 1995; Figley, 2002; Stamm, 2010), burnout (Figley, 1995; Figley, 2002; Maslach, Jackson, & Leiter, 1996; Stamm, 2010), and perceived stress (Cohen, Kamarck, & Mermelstein, 1983; Tilley & Chambers, 2003). The research studies suggest that it is possible to increase the level of compassion satisfaction and decrease the level of compassion fatigue (secondary traumatic stress and burnout) among helping professionals by performing self-care activities (Alkema, Linton, & Davies, 2008; Bloomquist et al., 2015; Killian, 2008; Lawson & Myers, 2011). The present research study was therefore focused on the analysis of compassion satisfaction, secondary traumatic stress, burnout, emotional well-being, and self-care among helping professionals in Slovakia. The first aim of the study was to examine the prevalence of selected, positive and negative, aspects of professional helping (compassion satisfaction, burnout, secondary traumatic stress, emotional well-being and performed self-care) among the Slovak helping professionals. The second aim of the study was to examine the predictive utility of emotional well-being and self-care activities in explaining the level of compassion satisfaction, burnout and secondary traumatic stress among helping professionals in Slovakia. The results indicated the higher incidence of positive than negative aspects of helping among helping professionals who experienced higher levels of compassion satisfaction, higher levels of positive emotions; and lower levels of negative emotions, burnout and secondary traumatic stress. The results also suggested that the helping professionals performed more physical than psychological self-care activities. The results indicated the importance of emotional well-being and performed self-care activities in explaining the levels of compassion satisfaction, burnout and secondary traumatic stress experienced by Slovak helping professionals working in institutions providing social care for orphans. The findings of the research provide a deeper insight into the positive and negative effects of the professional helping and will be used as a research background in the subsequent preparation of the intervention programmes aimed at promoting compassion satisfaction and eliminating burnout and secondary traumatic stress among helping professionals in Slovakia.

The paper offers an analysis of Plato's conception of the care of the self in his 'Gorgias'. There are two components of the self-care: self-knowledge and self-control. The first part deals with self-knowledge. The second part asks the question, whether can be there a fixed model of the individual soul's order. The third part of the paper deals with Plato's conception of self-control. The last part is concerned with the problem of self-control training.

The paper deals with the way how Plato uses the phrase doing one’s own in searching for the definition of sôphrosunê in the Charmides. Although the main theme of this dialogue is sôphrosunê, the consequence of the Critias’ concept of sôphrosunê, namely that sôphrosunê does not bring the community any advantage, also concerns the benefit of the community. The paper deals with the aporia of possibility and usefulness of self-knowledge in the dialogue. The text intends to show that the source of these aporia is Critias’ strict separation of three kinds of knowledge (“the knowledge of knowledge”, the “knowledge of good and evil” and “technical knowledge”). This separation is based on Critias’ potentially tyrannical “self-consciousness“ freed from all content determinations and governing the knowledge of good and evil. The unity between them has to the form of a complex structure the bearer of which is the soul and which is dominated by the knowledge of good and evil.
