The present research focuses on preschool children’s sharing behavior on their different types of dyadic peer relationships. The dyadic peer relations were assessed based on sociometric nomination data where we made the distinction between positive and negative, reciprocated and non-reciprocated dyadic relations. The sharing behavior in these relations was analyzed in a special sharing task created by the author. First children had to share six strawberries, between him/herself and the other child of the dyad then they had to predict the other child’s sharing behavior. In this sharing task children could express their sharing preference to the other child in different types of dyadic relationships. By asking children to predict the other child’s sharing behavior in the dyad we can see their knowledge about these relationships. The different pattern of sharing behavior, which was recognized in the different types of dyads, indicated that the sharing behavior was basically determined by the emotional bond between the children involved in a dyad.

The concept of social exclusion is widely used in academia and social policy discourse in European countries. However, one of the constituents of social exclusion, namely, exclusion from social relationships, remains unclear and underdeveloped both conceptually and empirically. Moreover, knowledge on the patterns of exclusion from social relationships among men and women in later adulthood is even less advanced. Therefore, we developed a multidimensional scale for measuring an individual’s level of embeddedness in social relationships and examined the gender patterns of social embeddedness. We applied latent class analysis to survey data collected on a sample of 2015 residents of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia aged 50+. We derived a seven-class model based on a continuum from strong to weak social embeddedness. We identified two classes with a high level of exclusion from social relations and, conversely, two classes with a high level of social embeddedness. Subsequent multinomial regression analysis revealed that gender was a statistically significant predictor in the cases of the most excluded class and one of the most socially embedded classes.

New media are frequently used for presenting views and developing desired socio-political opinions. The social networking websites are becoming an objection towards the use of media messages as tools of persuasion and manipulation. However, they are not playing that role exhaustively. The article discusses the process of developing social capital in social networking websites, against the background of social relationships based on trust or lack of trust. Partnership and cooperation are becoming important tools of democracy, with which there are constructed the social bonds which mobilize the users of media networking websites to undertake political activities. The developed social bonds constitute a source of discussion groups concentrated around joint views. In turn, in the light of lack of trust, that division into groups leads to alienation and the resulting polarization of views. Polarization tendencies in the social networking media limit their informative character. At the same time, they cause a situation when, in the social networking area of the Internet, different socio-political activities are ignored or blocked. Media education is to counteract such tendencies. Under the European law, the European countries have been obliged to develop media education both in education, and through social educational programs. The current condition of media education in Poland was presented.

The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between gratitude and certain components of well-being which are conducive to affirming life. Additionally, we also compared how experiencing joy impacts those components of well-being. A randomly chosen 1/3 of the participants was asked to recall an event from their past when they felt grateful. Another 1/3 was asked to recall an event from their past when they felt joy. The final 1/3 of the participants was the control group. Next, all participants filled in the Satisfaction With Life Scale. Then (taking turns) they completed the Social Ties Scale and the Social Trust Scale. Finally, all participants estimated the amount of beneficiary experiences and gratitude they had received in life. The results of the study indicate that both gratitude and joy enhance happiness, and that gratitude and joy play an important, although different in some respects, role as contributing factors to happiness. The results indicate a positive relationship between the balance in gratitude experiences and the examined aspects of well-being.

Nowe technologie medialne umożliwiają powstawanie i funkcjonowanie wspólnot ludzizmagających się z podobnymi problemami, chcących uzyskać pomoc, radę i wsparcie.Wspólnoty wirtualne stanowią przestrzeń, gdzie w ramach oddolnych działań samopomocowychmają oni możliwość komunikacji, wymiany informacji oraz dzielenia sięswymi doświadczeniami i problemami. Przynosi to istotne zmiany dla aktywności osóbniepełnosprawnych w tworzącym się społeczeństwie sieci, w ramach którego formuje sięnowy sposób wytwarzania i przepływu informacji przy wsparciu sieci medialnych, wpływającychna kształt społeczeństwa na wszystkich poziomach, od indywidualnego aż poorganizacyjny. Znaczna część działań społecznych podejmowanych w tym środowiskuprzenosi się dziś do sieci, co z jednej strony wzmacnia jego integrację, z drugiej jednak,paradoksalnie, może pogłębiać izolację społeczną osób niepełnosprawnych, których aktywnośćnie będzie wykraczać poza przestrzeń wirtualną. Podstawowym celem artykułujest ukazanie – na podstawie analizy zawartości ich profili na portalach społecznościowych– na jakie zalety i wady korzystania z internetu wskazują zarówno osoby niepełnosprawne,jak i inne podmioty aktywnie działające w internecie na ich rzecz.

New media technologies allow for the creation and functioning of communities of peoplestruggling with similar problems, who want to obtain help, advice and support. Virtualcommunities provide a space where in the conditions of the bottom-up self-help actions and activities arises for them the possibility to communicate, exchange information, shareexperiences and problems. This causes significant changes for the activity of people withdisabilities in the emerging networked society, within which a new method of informationproduction and flow in being formed with the support of the social media networks,influencing the shape of the society on all levels: from the individual to the organizational.A significant part of social activities undertaken in this environment is transferred intothe network, which on the one hand strengthens its integration, but on the other handmay paradoxically deepen the social isolation of people with disabilities, whose activitieswill not go beyond the virtual space. The primary goal of this article is to show – based onthe analysis of the content of their social media profiles – the advantages and disadvantagesof using the Internet indicated both by people with disabilities and others activelyacting on behalf of this environment.

This paper present the work of Nick Kardulias concerning the Egean World – System In the Bronze Age. It is paradoxical that the application of the Wallerstein’s model is the most popular and the most useful in Bronze Age studies. In the current article I assess the Kardulias’ work, his worldsystems approach to Aegean societies in the third and second millennia BC. He writes that ] in this era of the studied area societies developed complex economies based on accumulation of substantial agricultural surpluses, craft specialization, and intricate distribution systems.

This paper analysed the social relations of Polish children during the SARSCoV- 2 pandemic. The period of isolation and remote learning was approached as a transitional time using Victor Turner’s concept of liminality. The concept offered a new perspective on children’s experiences during the regime of health protection constraints and the resulting limitations. The research material was collected using focus group interviews with 41 urban children aged 7 and 9 to describe liminal features of their everyday life and characterise their social interactions. The findings reveal the risks and the potential of the pandemic period with respect to the social world and its construction by children. The most important observation concern is that educators and caregivers exploit children’s aversion to mediated interaction and assistance in reconstructing the world of actual interaction of children using creative rituals within the family and at school.

The concept of the language as an instrument for children, that leads to their mutual understanding in the classes 1–3, depends on the comprehensive educators approach to the relations between linguistics and the philosophy of language, developmental psychology, sociology of culture, and the history of the Polish society. The child’s undertaking of the school education imposes on the teacher the obligation to accompany it not only in mastering the elementary knowledge of the native language’s grammar system, but also in creating situations that overcome students fear of making difficult decisions when solving interesting tasks. When using the functions of the language: fatic, communicative, informational, expressive or meta-linguistic, pupils go through the several stages from the incorrect speech to correct speech, and they master the elementary structure of the reading texts intended for the little recipients. The described process would be strengthened depending on the pupil’s social background, and conditioned culturally and environmentally. This in turn affects the perception of the poetic language function and aesthetic attitude towards art.

Creativeness of children in early school education as well as the means for its stimulation are important issues both for practitioners and theoreticians of early schooling. It can be observed in everyday conversations between teachers of young children, in curriculum requirements and syllabi for the integrated education as well as some academic and quasi-academic works. The reasons for that are, firstly, the growing awareness of the importance of this sphere of children’s development, and secondly, the fact that early school years are particularly important for the child. Ability to think creatively and solve problems determines success in a variety of situations. For this reason is considered to be a desirable feature, worth developing. The article concerns the relationship between creativity and functioning of children in early childhood education; especially between creative attitude and the educational achievement, as well as social relationship. It contains also an analysis of the cognitive components of the creative process and individual determinants of educational attainment and social development of the child. The author also presented the opportunity to develop creative attitudes of pupils in educational practice in classes 1 – 3. Arts, literary and mathematical education is treated here as a special additional tool to support and intensify this process.

The paper introduces the Pictorial Assessment of Interpersonal Relationship (PAIR) developed by Bombi et al. (Bombi, Pinto, Cannoni, 2007). The research instrument can be applied to children from 6–14 years old to analyze and compare drawings of interpersonal relationships along 6 main scales (Cohesion, Distancing, Similarity, Value, Emotions, Conflict). Rejecting the symbolic perspective and clinical approach the method considers drawings as communicative tools, which can be used to reveal the children’s understanding of social world, social phenomena and social emotions. PAIR can be reliably applied to detect how children understand interpersonal phenomena in general (e.g. friendship, competition, cooperation), social status (e.g. poor-rich), how they discriminate among different categories of relationships (e.g. siblinghood-friendship, winner-loser) and how they represent relationships under special circumstances (siblings in harmony- in conflict). The method can help to interpret social relationships and interaction-generated emotions pictured by children in a mutual framework. The research instrument has an objective, elaborated analytic system to examine the dyadic interpersonal relationships (two entire figures). Moreover contrary to the projective tests PAIR can be reliably used to investigate children’s social knowledge in the field of developmental social psychology. The aim of the present paper is to introduce this analytic system as a useful research method of drawings in scientific research.

The article attempts to search for predictors of the value system of eighth graders of primary schools. The aim is to answer the question which predictors among those proposed (gender, degree of religious commitment, grade point average, family material situation, relationship with parents, playing games, relationship with the tutor, relationship with siblings) play the greatest importance in the choice of nine value models by adolescents. The research was carried out between 1.10.2018 and 12.01.2019 using a self-administered, auditorily completed online survey questionnaire (CAWI). The article refers to a sample of eighth-graders (N = 1986) that is representative in terms of province, gender and size of place of residence. The results show that gender is the strongest predictor, followed by grade point average, degree of religious commitment and family financial situation. Playing games and relationships with educator and siblings are less significant. Relationships with parents play the least important role.

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki badań nad zróżnicowaniem postaw młodzieży wobec wybranych grup narodowo-etnicznych. Badania zostały przeprowadzone na próbie 690 uczniów (w tym 378 dziewcząt i 312 chłopców) w wieku 14–19 lat. Do diagnozy stosunku nastolatków wobec „obcych” użyto zmodyfikowanej wersji Skali Dystansu Społecznego Bogardusa. W zakresie deklarowanych postaw wobec „innych” ustalono, że: (1) największy dystans społeczny badana młodzież wyraża w stosunku do Romów, Arabów i Żydów; (2) największy stopień otwartości i zbliżenia młodzież deklaruje wobec Hiszpanów, Włochów i Francuzów; (3) dziewczęta wyrażają bardziej otwarte postawy niż chłopcy. Wyniki te komentowane są w kulturowym i społecznym kontekście wychowania.

The article presents the findings of research on the diversity of adolescents’ attitudes toward selected ethnic groups. Research participants were 690 students (including 378 girls and 312 boys) aged 14 through 19. A modified version of the Bogardus social distance scale was used to assess the adolescents’ attitudes toward “outsiders.” As far as the declared attitudes toward “others” are concerned, it has been established that: (1) the adolescents report the greatest social distance between themselves and Romani people, Arabs and Jews; (2) they declare the highest degree of openness and closeness toward Spaniards, Italians and Frenchmen; (3) girls express more open attitudes than boys. These findings are analyzed in the cultural and social context of education.

The article was written by me and my students from the Faculty of Psychology and Humanities Academy of Krakow. Senior Clubs are a very good example of social capital as a network of social relationships between individuals who trust each other and have a reciprocal. People in the network tend to mutually support each other, help and exchange important information. Thanks to the participation in the Senior Clubs can contribute actively to prevent a serious threat occurring at the senior age, which is depression. According to the WHO, it is the fourth most serious health problem in the world, which are often the source of a signifi cant deterioration in mental functioning, physical and social disability, and suicide attempts. Depression in the elderly is more dependent on environmental factors than younger people. While younger people family burden found in about 80% in the elderly is at about 44%. This means that the depression at the senior age is much more driven by the social rather than biological factors compared with younger age groups. This also means that it is easier to prevent and treat using these social factors. One of the main causes of depression in the elderly is the depletion interaction with the environment, and reduced activity. Therefore, it is important to stimulate the activation of such persons, thereby reducing the risk of depression. Recent psychological research indicates a strong relationship of friendship with happiness and the length and quality of life. Friendship improves happiness through the creation of social support and a sense of belonging. The aim of our research presented in this article was to test the hypothesis that individuals who actively participate in the Senior Club are less depressed than those who do not participate. Our team conducted empirical research presented in this paper, allowed to confirm this hypothesis. Activity in the Senior Club provides activities, involvement and support of mental health, which may significantly prevent the development of depression. Of course, it is also probably the case that those who are already at risk of suffering from depression or her less likely to participate in the activities of the Senior Citizens Clubs. It is often associated with passivity, apathy and withdrawal from the social environment, and so often associated with symptoms of depression. However, even in such a situation, the primary treatment, usually bringing more interest in the world and people should encourage such people to actively participate in senior clubs. It is then treated as a kind of social therapy. Social and cultural activity in old age is a factor in increasing the quality of life, serving mental and physical health, increasing the level of happiness and reducing the level of suffering.
