The subject of the text is the use of role models in building an academic culture of research integrity. We present some possible ways of involving them in teaching and promoting research integrity at universities. The acquired empirical results concern the qualities of a scientist worthy of emulation indicated by undergraduates, postgraduates and PhD students. The qualitative analysis of the collected data enabled us to describe two profiles of a good scientist: an accessible one, who sets an example to his/her mentees in a direct relationship, and a distant one, admired because of his/her work ethos and outstanding achievements. The research was conducted as an online survey in 2020 as part of the project

The term herstory was created as a result of playing with words. The English word history began to be read as his story. To emphasize the separateness of women’s history, the term herstory appeared as a female equivalent. A linguistic, feminist joke has coincided with the change of the paradigm of historical sciences, in which – apart from analyzing politics – social and human issues have arisen in time. The history of women was just in the new paradigm, so the term herstory quickly became popular. Nowadays, it also refers to stories about women, as well as to feminine narratives. These include biographies and mini-biographies for young readers. The characters of these books are women left out of history, as well as women who live in present times and deserve attention. They represent various professions which until recently were unavailable for the ladies. They are creative, aware of their needs, decisive and consistent in their actions. They can certainly be role models for modern girls. They are the ones who were not there before.

Health Champions are a growing component within the British public health workforce and their roles are now emphasised within the coalition’s Government’s public health strategy. However, there is the need for further exploration of the way in which Health Champions use interpersonal communication within their roles. This paper reports on the findings from a mixed method evaluation of one Health Champion programme in North East England. A key finding was the way in which Health Champions used circles of influence to communicate health knowledge and to try to achieve behaviour change, starting with themselves in the centre of their circle and then moving outwards to influence others such as family, friends and colleagues through their social networks. The paper argues that health champions act as healthy role models within their own circles of influence to successfully communicate health knowledge to those around them.

In recent public discussions in Europe on the advantages of mixed-gender teams, many voices have been calling for more men in primary education. The urgent need to get more male teachers into primary education exists also in the Czech Republic. In a highly feminised environment, the prevailing view is that we need more male role models and male teachers who are already in kindergartens and elementary schools are presented as unique and exceptional. Behind this idea lies the belief that female teachers need to be ‘complemented’ by male teachers, because female collectives are not that helpful - and may even be harmful - without the presence of men. The crucial question is: When we are asking for more ‘good male role models’ in primary education, what type of masculinity are we looking for? The aim of the paper is to identify the problematic assumptions underpinning the discourse on the shortage of male teachers. This paper is based on qualitative ethnographic research conducted in kindergartens and elementary schools between 2013 and 2017, which included interviews with different actors in primary education in the Czech Republic.

Przedmiotem artykułu są archetypy mityczne, które w zarządzaniu traktowane są jako źródło wzorców i inspiracji w poszukiwaniu skutecznych modeli działania w biznesie. Głównym celem opracowania jest porównanie archetypicznych starożytnych bogiń z sylwetkami współczesnych kobiet przedsiębiorczych, które odniosły sukces zawodowy. Przedstawiono cztery wybrane postaci: Carly Fioriny, Anity Roddick, Henryki Bochniarz i Solange Olszewskiej, przeanalizowano ich charakterystyki na tle wizerunku greckich bogiń. Wskazano na wiele analogii, co uświadamia złożoność wyzwań przed jakimi postawione są kobiety działające w biznesie oraz aktualność archetypicznych wzorców.

The purpose of the article are mythical archetypes which in management are considered to be the source of patterns and inspiration for the research into the effective models of acting in business. The major objective of the thesis is to collate the archetypes of antique goddesses with contemporary women who succeeded in business. The study delineates four selected characters, namely Carly Fiorina, Anita Roddick, Henryka Bochniarz and Solange Olszewska, and analyses the aforementioned profiles with regard to the image of Greek goddesses. A variety of analogies are identified, what suggests the complexity of the challenges posed to business women as well as the significance of the archetypes.

All over the world girls are still highly underrepresented in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) subjects in school, and only a small percentage of women choose occupational careers in that field. The socially-influenced gender differences in spatial abilities – particularly in the ability to rotate two- or three-dimensional objects in one’s mind – are considered as a cognitive mediator of that gender gap. This paper gives an overview of the social causes and social consequences of the gender differences in spatial abilities. It focuses on sociocultural influences, including gender stereotypes (e.g. the phenomenon of the “stereotype threat”), and the importance of role models in family and school. Furthermore, personal factors like the ability-related self-concept and the effects of experience and training are taken into consideration. The results of empirical studies are reported which reveal that mental-rotation performance is strongly influenced by gender-specific differences in spatial experiences, role models, the ability-related selfconcept and socio-economic status. Finally, the paper discusses why and how women`s perceived lack of spatial abilities might lead to gender-typical educational and occupational choices.

W społeczeństwie od zawsze toczyła się dyskusja o przewartościowaniu, o tym jak umoralniona przeszłość upada pod naciskiem pozbawionej wartości przyszłości. Są to jednak głównie dyskursy moralizatorskie, krytyczne i nierzadko mające niewiele wspólnego z podejściem obiektywnym nie mówiąc już o podejściu naukowym. Tekst traktuje o problemach w ujęciu definicyjnym wciąż zmieniającej się i dynamicznej rzeczywistości kultury popularnej oraz równie dynamicznych przemianach związanych z ustalaniem wzorców i autorytetów.

Among the society for ages there has been a discussion about revaluation the fall of the moral past under the pressure of valueless future. Those discourses were mostly moralistical, critical and far from impartial, scientific approach. This text is about the prob-lems concerning definition of ever-changing and dynamic popculture reality as well as equally dynamic changes of establishing of role models and authorities.

The article presents the conceit in the Polish baroque sermon Pszczółka w bursztynie [A Bee in Amber] of a Bernardine Franciszek Sitański. In the sermon the author presents the figure of St. Dorothy; he also draws attention to the virtues of Dorota Kątska, who was the abbess of St. Norbert’s Order in Zwierzyniec (near Cracow) in the 17th century, and most of all he praises the monastic way of life. Biblical and hagiographic arguments, a source of inspiration for the author as an effective means of persuasion, appeal to the imagination of the audience. Metaphors, analogies and comparisons in the sermon prove that Pszczółka w bursztynie is based upon the conceit. By using the arguments Sitański was trying not only to move the recipients, but mainly to persuade them to cultivate virtues presented by Christian heroines.
