Aim. The subject of our interest is to research the forms of prejudice about Christians among university students. Part of the research focuses on the question of the forms of prejudices of the research group in relation to religious classmates – peers and part of on significant influence of media on the negative perception of Christianity in the society. The reflection of the findings is a consideration of the decline in social cohesion due to (1) the existence of prejudices in the university environment in Slovakia, and (2) the often negative media presentation of Christian religion in the Slovak media. Concept. The starting point of the issue is the research into the forms of prejudice and the potential for social exclusion of young people due to the existence of prejudice in the university environment. The need for this kind of research and reasoning arises from growing fears and the strengthening of phobias that accumulate within the groups we observe. Results and conclusion. The reflection of the findings is a consideration of the decline in social cohesion due to (1) the existence of prejudices in the university environment in Slovakia, and (2) the often negative media presentation of Christian religion in the Slovak media. Cognitive value. Qualitative statements confirm the decline in social cohesion among peers due to religious diversity. We consider the presence of religious prejudices as an urgent call for such forms of education that would effectively contribute to the acceptance of cultural and religious diversity in society and to the promotion of social cohesion in the university environment.

Celem opracowania jest ustalenie stanu wiedzy w zakresie teorii spójności w odniesieniu do postaw/zachowań społecznych (spójności społecznej). W pierwszej części opracowania przedstawiono selektywny przegląd prób konceptualizacji pojęcia "spójność społeczna". Część druga stanowi przegląd spostrzeżeń w zakresie relacji pomiędzy spójnością społeczną a jej efektami (performance). Następnie zaprezentowano selektywny przegląd dotychczasowych podejść do operacjonalizacji konstruktu "spójność społeczna". Na końcu sformułowano finalne konstatacje oraz kierunki badań nad spójnością społeczną. Cel opracowania został zrealizowany przy wykorzystaniu ekstensywnego przeglądu literatury w danym obszarze wiedzy. Wyniki krytycznej analizy literatury przedmiotu uprawniają do stwierdzenia, iż metodyka badań nad spójnością społeczną powinna podążać w kierunku podejścia jakościowego.

The purpose of the paper is to establish the state of the art of cohesiveness theory in terms of social attitudes/behaviour (social cohesion). The paper is organized threefold. Firstly, a selective review of researchers' endeavours to conceptualize the concept "social cohesion" has been presented. Secondly, the considerations due to the relationships between social cohesion and broadly understood performance have been illustrated. Then, a selective review of current approaches to operationalize the construct "social cohesion" has been highlighted. Finally, conclusions and future research directions have been formulated. The purpose has been realized by means of an extensive literature review in a given field. The results of critically scoping the literature have entitled to infer that research methodology on social cohesion ought to be directed towards a qualitative approach.
