Przesłanką rozwodu jest trwały i zupełny rozkład pożycia małżeńskiego. Z żądaniem rozwodu może wystąpić każdy z małżonków. O rozwodzie orzeka sąd po przeprowadzeniu procesu. Celem artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie, czy różnica wieku między małżonkami ma wpływ na przyczyny rozkładu pożycia małżeńskiego, a jeżeli tak, to jaki jest to wpływ. Zastosowanym w artykule narzędziem badawczym jest test niezależności chi-kwadrat. Wnioski z przeprowadzonej analizy są następujące: 1) Niedochowanie wierności małżeńskiej jako przyczyna rozkładu pożycia małżeńskiego pojawia się relatywnie częściej, gdy rozwodzący się małżonkowie są w zbliżonym wieku lub ewentualnie żona jest starsza od męża. Natomiast powód ten pojawia się względnie rzadko, gdy mąż jest starszy od żony. 2) Stosunkowo najczęściej problem alkoholowy dotyka małżeństw, w których mąż jest starszy od żony. 3) Z powodu nagannego stosunku do członków rodziny najwięcej rozpada się małżeństw, w których mąż jest znacznie starszy od żony.

The article discusses case study with a focus on the history of the term and its transdisciplinary application, from medicine and sociology, through law, psychiatry, psychology, sexology, and literary studies. The author discusses the differences between case study as a genre (Brigit Lang, Joy Damousi, Alison Lewis, Yiannis Gabriel) and case study as a research strategy (Bent Flyvbjerg, Gerring John, Ryszard Nycz), which has been recently also employed in literary studies. Determining the scope and features of case study is accompanied by an analysis of description as a key tool in formulating “the story of the case.”

The story of the exiles of the Zhukovsky family is presented in the paper. Analyses were based on interviews with Dagmara, the daughter, two documentaries: On memory paths and Crust of Bread, and a manuscript written on the basis of Danuta and Bogusław recollections by Dagmara. Hypotheses of the paper were the following: a story of a family is the history of a nation. There is a parallel between historical events and an individual’s fate. The ancestors, need to tell one’s story and the descendants’ need to hear it are reciprocal ones and can be interpreted as a cultural mechanism of incorporation new texts into a culture memory. On an individual level it gives rise to the feeling of dignity and power. Marianne Hirsch’s theory of post‑memory and Yury Lotman’s concept of ‘remembering – forgetting’ mechanism were utilized to present and interpret memories of Boguslav and Danuta Zhukovsky and their descendant – Dagmara. The reasons for reaching into the past and coming back to Syberia were also analysed.

For a literary scholar specialising in texts targeted at children it is tempting to explore the authentic, original childish cognition of the text, together with the feelings and reflections that accompany the child while reading. At the same time, the scholar knows that the access to these sphere is, inevitably, only partial, even scant compared to the scholar’s curiosity. This article is an attempt to describe a specific “case study” for the analysed source of cognition are the memories of the author herself, concerning her childish readings, her judgements and emotions that the characters she read about evoked in her. The motif for such an idea is a strong conviction that the information included in her vivid memories and experiences provide an interesting, sometimes even surprising, field for analysis,. Nevertheless, the author is aware that the memories we possess are never available in the “clear form”. However, the process of transformation of the memories is not treated as an obstacle; quite the contrary, it offers a possibility to add an additional perspective, since the adult personality of a former child – a bookworm – is interlinked with the profession of a literary scholar.

The information flow, from which managers can make decent decisions, requires the use of e-economy tools and enterprise support planning systems. Simulations as a tool of e-economy become increasingly popular in business practice nowadays. In this paper, the authors focus on presenting how the simulations were used to verify the developed model of evaluating production efficiency. Using a case study method, they describe the verification process, which depicts the specificity of the production process, on the example of serial production, which is the most representative in business practice. The main aim of the article is to present the informatization method of the evaluation model and the simulation as a tool supporting the decision-making process at the operational level.

The purpose of this paper is to describe so-called “marked” intonation. What this means is that the intonation contour is indicated by a sharply rising pitch. This is a case study that focuses on the forms and functions of that type of rising intonation patterns which occur not in questions (interrogative mood) but in statements (indicative mood). The linguistic data consists of audio recording and transcriptions taken from the GeWiss, a comparative corpus of spoken academic language. The analysis shows that intonation contours are not subordinate to grammar and that they do not depend on modality.

The article contains a description of the case study of an eleven-year-old boy with the central auditory processing disorders. The case study method is analytical. In the etiology of central auditory processing disorders, the most frequently spoken of auditory perception disorders include impairments of the receptive (hearing) function and disorders of sound discrimination. As therapeutic observations confirm, it is therefore interesting to examine auditory attention (selection and intensification of sound stimuli proccesing) and assessment of the ability to discriminate acoustic speech sound.

The aim of the paper is to evaluate the Human Development Index (HDI) as an indicator of economic development. The analysis is based on case studies of five post‑socialist countries: the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, and Poland. To carry out the assessment of the HDI, two approaches are employed. The first involves comparing the HDI values to seventeen other indicators related to different aspects of development chosen with reference to Amartya K. Sen’s approach. The second approach refers to public opinion surveys provided by the Eurobarometer and the European Quality of Life Survey programs. In the light of the analysis, it can be said that the HDI is a fairly good measure of economic development. However, certain important dimensions which have a significant impact on people’s living conditions are neglected. Knowing about Sen’s influence on the creation of the HDI and the emphasis he put on the relationship between democracy and development, it may be surprising that such neglected dimensions include the state of democracy.

Training with the use of problem-based learning has become increasingly popular at all levels of education, including business education. An example of this type of learning is case study method. This method allows developing skills and competencies used by managers in their work, for example ability to synthesize, identify problems, and make decisions. Despite many advantages of the case study method and its widespread use in the training of executives and managers, it is used to illustrate the problems of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) relatively rarely. Many business case studies are based on the problems faced by large companies, and not those from the SME sector, which greatly reduces the possibility of using this method of training for managers and owners of SMEs. This paper helps to solve this problem by presenting a model used to create business case studies devoted to the needs of SMEs. Case studies created on the base of this model can be used to train managers, supervisors, owners of such companies and prospective candidates. The model can also be developed and modified, which increases its potential application in other training areas. The model was developed and tested within the INNOCASE project (project website: www.innocase.zie.pg.gda.pl).
