Special emphasis is put on the early -stage technology development which allows to gradually transform invention into innovation. In the further part of the paper three kinds of uncertainty concerning the corporate innovation processes are discussed. Then the author identifies, in his opinion, the key threat in R&D projects, i.e. the resource gap. The causes of resource gap are then thoroughly discussed and explained using both the appropriate psychological theory and the game - theoretic approach. Finally, the potential managerial and economic consequences of the resource gap are shown.

In view of challenges faced by contemporary enterprises, increasing their ability to compete through application of appropriately selected competition tools is an important task. Results obtained from studies covering food industry enterprises from the region of Warmia and Mazury indicate that resources available to them have the major influence on application of such competition tools as company image, product price, product quality, brand and width of products range. On the other hand, the influence of resources on application of such competition tools as range of pre-sale services as well as quality and price of pre-sale services in the studied enterprises was low. Aiming at improving the effectiveness of competition instruments applied, the food industry enterprises are forced to build and improve their resources as well as their tangible and intangible characteristics. That applies mainly to research-innovation and marketing activities. Strong resources in those areas of operation will allow applying specific and clearly unique configurations of competition instruments.

Research conducted to date has evidenced the importance of single resources for adaptation to illness. The aim of the presented study was to take into account many resources so as to determine their structure and the way of utilization in various patient groups. The Resourcefulness for Recovery Inventory (Celinski, Antoniazzi, 2001) measuring 18 personal and social resources was used for this purpose. Participants in the study were 115 patients (68 men, 47 women) suffering from cardiovascular or rheumatoid diseases, or from cancer. The patients were found to utilize cognitive, emotional and behavioral resources, as well as social support in their adaptation to illness. The highest level of resource utilization was found in the cardiac group, and the lowest - in cancer patients.

The aim of the study was to establish relationships between perceived psychosocial resources and styles of coping with stress utilized by adolescents. A total of 1326 students (aged 15-20, mean age 17.0 years) of 16 randomly selected secondary schools were examined using a set of self-report questionnaires. Personal resources (sense of coherence and optimism), environmental resources (family affluence, family strengths, support from parents, teachers and peers), and styles of coping with stress were measured. Two groups differing significantly in their perceived resources were distinguished. The group with high resources (HR) consisted of 502, while the low-resource group (LR) - of 570 adolescents. The level of perceived resources (high vs. low) turned out to be associated with utilization of specific coping styles. High-resource adolescents as compared to their low-resource counterparts more often utilized task-oriented coping and seeking interpersonal contacts, at the same time less often using emotion- and distraction-oriented coping styles.

Risk taking behavior was studied in a field experiment, where, unlike experiments in laboratory settings, subjects had to make real decisions, gain or loose real stakes. In real situations, not only the few factors chosen by the researcher influence risk taking behavior, but also a number of interdependent constituent effects. This research investigated the impact of the positive or negative framing, the available resources, the aspiration levels, and the risk taking propensity of the individual in a real situation. A second experiment was run in a laboratory to control for the difference in the two approaches. It was found that people take much smaller risk in real situations where they have to face real consequences. In real situations, when subjects get close to the survival point, they do not engage in extreme risk taking strategies, such as complete avoidance or extreme risk taking. This result contradicts the findings of research undertaken in laboratory settings. In this study the amount of the previously accumulated resources seems to be the most important determinant of risk taking behavior. Subjects with limited resources perceived the situation as riskier, experienced more serious uncertainty, and lowered their aspiration level. Our results contradicted the prediction of prospect theory which indicates risk avoidance in a positively framed (gaining), and risk avoidance in a negatively framed (loosing) situation. Our subjects radically reduced their willingness to take risks in the negative frame both in the real and the hypothetical situations.

Adults' adaptation troubles that have family background first of all result from dysfunctionality of the family system. A family with many children should not be identified with a problem family. Dysfunctions of the family system may concern any family, irrespective of the number of children in it. Adaptation troubles of persons coming from families with many children first of all result from: the stereotype of a family with many children functioning in the society; the material poverty of the family triggering other forms of cognitive, social, cultural poverty; and deficits in the parents' psycho-social and educational competences. In Poland various initiatives are launched that are directed to families with many children. Undoubtedly such enterprises favor development not only of the very families, but of the whole society as well. However, there are a lot of deficits in the policies directed to the family, especially one with many children. The deficits are observed mainly on the following levels: the macro-social one - a deficit of institutional support for families, especially ones with many children; this type of support requires a change in the binding law regulations and directives resolving social policies towards families, including ones with many children; the micro-social level, where there is a need to support families by means of various systems of social care (natural and specialist ones); this type of aid requires reliable knowledge about problem families areas (about the need for support) and qualified staff giving the care.
