Presented paper deals with the dependency between organisational interpersonal atmosphere in organisations and coping strategies, used by polish and german workers. There were 30 Polish and 30 German subjects, representing three kinds of business companies: commercial, concerning computer technology and productive. The methods were Kolb’s Questionnaire for Organisational Atmosphere and Coping Inventory of Stress Strategy by Endler and Parker, both in Polish or German linguistic version. The results suggest that there is certain difference between Polish and German workers: the former are used to apply coping strategies, which are appropriate to the perceived organisational weaknesses, the latter – mostly use strategies directed towards the emotional discomfort and tension. Surprisingly, the Poles who are functioning in well organised office are motivated to use mainly emotional (and avoiding) strategies, what may be understood as a result of weak identification with the organisation.

Aim. The article represents the results of research into the success of the students who are preparing themselves for teaching activity in the nearest future while obtaining their professional education. The aim of this research is to examine the notion of professional success, with the focus on the cognitive component of this process through the prism of purpose in life. Methods. In accordance with a developed theoretical model of the professional success achieved by a person, empirical research was carried out on a sample of the future primary school teachers with the focus on the cognitive component. To realise the purpose and objectives of the paper, a set of tests (the Test of the Life-Sense Orientations; the Purpose-in-Life Test (PIL); and a questionnaire of early childhood decisions, etc. were used as diagnostic tools to find out the correlation between components of professional success. Statistical correlation was analysed with the use of Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Results. The results of the correlation analysis between the indicators of personal readiness for change and the scenarios show a reversed two-way correlation between the indicators of the Confidence scale and the attributes “Don’t be, don’t be alive”, “Don’t be yourself”, “Be excellent”; between the metrics of the “Passion” scale and the “Don’t grow up”, “Don’t be yourself”. Conclusion. It was found that meaningful orientations of the future primary school teachers and scenario settings like “Do Not Get Close, Don’t Love, Don’t Feel, Be Perfect, Try, function as psychological barriers to achieving professional success.

Security, especially military security, is a state that gives a sense of certainty and a guarantee of its preservation and is ensured especially by the armed forces – soldiers. There are professions that are associated with above-average levels of both health and psychological costs. Without any doubt, this group includes the profession of soldier. Soldiers are exposed to enormous stress while on duty, and maintaining an appropriate mental condition has a direct impact on the effectiveness of the activities they undertake, including combat activities, which affect our level of safety. The ability to cope with stress in the event of a threat is important, not only for the health of participants, but above all, it has a significant impact on the level of collective safety. Military service involves constant improvement of one’s skills. It was noticed that an effective commander is a specialist in both military operations and combat stress. A commander whose actions affect not only the safety of the soldier, but also the safety of a given society. All the more so because the leader is largely responsible for alleviating operational stress in his soldiers; therefore, he cannot remain indifferent to the causes and consequences of combat stress. The authors of this article aimed to analyze the level of sense of coherence and styles of coping with stress among soldiers.

W artykule dokonano przeglądu wybranych badań dotyczących predyspozycji osobowościowych osób podejmujących role przedsiębiorcze oraz omówiono podobieństwa i różnice między przedsiębiorcami i intraprzedsiębiorcami. Zaprezentowane zostały wyniki badań psychologicznych (N = 340), ukazujące zróżnicowanie osobowościowe obu grup (również w porównaniu do szeregowych pracowników niecechujących się postawą przedsiębiorczą). Uwzględniono następujące cechy: czynniki osobowości ujęte w modelu wielkiej piątki, skłonność do ryzyka oraz takie zasoby psychologiczne, jak: poczucie własnej skuteczności, nadzieja na sukces, optymizm i samoocena. Generalny wniosek z badań jest następujący: przedsiębiorcy i intraprzedsiębiorcy charakteryzują się znacznym podobieństwem osobowościowym (oprócz ugodowości i skłonności do ryzyka) i istotnie różnią się od szeregowych pracowników pod względem nasilenia niemal wszystkich uwzględnionych cech (z wyjątkiem optymizmu).
