This study examines the relationship between psychophysiological arousal, cognitive anxiety, and personality traits in young taekwondo athletes. A total of 20 male and 10 female taekwondo athletes (mean age = 18.6 years; ± 1.8) volunteered for the study. The Five Factor Personality Inventory and the state scale of the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were used to measure personality and cognitive state anxiety. Electrodermal activity (EDA) was measured twice, one day and approximately one hour prior to the competition, to determine psychophysiological arousal. Descriptive statistics, Pearson product-moment correlations, and stepwise regression were used to analyze the data. Several "Big Five" facets were related to the EDA delta scores that were measured both one day and one hour before the competition. Two stepwise regressions were conducted to examine whether personality traits could significantly predict both EDA delta scores. The final model, containing only neuroticism from the Big Five factors, can significantly explain the variations in the EDA delta scores measured one day before the competition. Agreeableness can significantly explain variations in the EDA delta scores measured one hour before the competition. No relationship was found between cognitive anxiety and the EDA delta scores measured one hour before the competition. In conclusion, personality traits, especially agreeableness and neuroticism, might be useful in understanding arousal responses to competition.

The paper deals with Aquinas’ concept of the human person. It focuses specifically on three writings: the Commentary of Sentences, Disputed questions on power and the Summa theologiae. Aquinas’ writings on the person are extremely wide, although they particularly focus on questions of theology (Trinity, christology, angelic persons). The philosophical principles of the personalistic approaches to the human being as relational and dialogical are only outlined, but are not fully developed. Particular attention is paid to the question of the personality of the separated soul.

The present study aimed to explore whether personality traits infl uence buying behaviour and if this infl uence differs depending on a different culture. The author focused on a crosscultural investigation of Poland and the UK. Data were collected via an online questionnaire which measured personality traits, consumer purchase behaviour and the meaning of branded products for 525 participants. The results show signifi cant relationships between personality traits and both, consumer shopping styles and the way individuals perceived branded products. Personality traits were assessed by the MINI-IPIP test, a 20-items instrument which measures the Big Five personalities: Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Intellect/Imagination (or Openness). Buying behaviour was tested by two scales. The fi rst one was a 39-item Consumer Shopping Inventory (CSI), which indentifi es eight shopping style dimensions: Perfectionist/High Quality Conscious, Brand Consciousness/Price Equals Quality, Novelty and Fashion Conscious, Recreational and Shopping Conscious, Price Conscious/Value for the Money, Impulsiveness/Careless, Confused by Overchoice, Habitual/Brand Loyal. Another instrument used was a 32-item the Meaning of Branded Products scale, presenting four dominant themes: Quality, Values, Personal Identity and Traditions. The present study also investigated the moderating effect of citizenship and other socio-demographic characteristics in the relation between personality traits and both, the meaning of branded products and shopping styles.

Współczesny fizjoterapeuta to nie tylko znakomity specjalista posiadający szeroką. wiedzę i umiejętności praktyczne, ale człowiek posiadający określone cechy osobowości. Wypełniając swoje obowiązki fizjoterapeucie przyświeca główna zasada „służba zdrowiu i życiu ludzkiemu”. W związku z tym cnoty moralne nabierają szczególnego znaczenia w jego pracy, której głównym przesłaniem jest pomoc drugiemu człowiekowi, ochrona jego zdrowia i życia, a także profilaktyka zdrowotna. Cnoty są wyznacznikami działania fizjoterapeutycznego, które nadają określony tor tym działaniom, wskazują na właściwy sposób oddziaływania. Zadaniem aksjologii fizjoterapii jest zdefiniowanie wzoru osobowego fizjoterapeuty, który powinien być wyposażony w różnorodne cnoty, między innymi sprawiedliwość, troskliwość, szacunek, współczucie, łagodność, odpowiedzialność. żyjąc i pracując w demokratycznym społeczeństwie, fizjoterapeuta powinien znać i pamiętać także o cechach spolegliwego opiekuna opisanego przez Tadeusza Kotarbińskiego, etyce czci dla życia według wielkiego lekarza humanisty Alberta Schweitzera, czy o cnotach obywatelskich, które prezentuje Maria Ossowska w swoim artykule „Wzór obywatela w ustroju demokratycznym”. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest zatem próba zaprojektowania idealnego wzoru współczesnego fizjoterapeuty, pożądanego w demokratycznym społeczeństwie.

A contemporary physiotherapist is not only an outstanding specialist with extensive knowledge and practical skills, but also a man with determined personality traits. The main principle for the physiotherapist in fulfilling their duties is motivating „service for health and for human life”. Therefore, personality traits gain a special significance in their work, for which the help for others, the protection of their health and lives are the main message, as well as preventative practices. Personality traits are indicators of physiotherapy action, which provide a specific path for this action to follow, which point out the correct way. Defining the personality model of the physiotherapist is a part of the axiology of physiotherapy itself, of the model of a perfect member of this socio-professional group, equipped with diverse personality traits - moral-social features, mind, character, professional, intellectual. Living and working in a democratic society, a physiotherapist should know and remember the characteristics of Tadeusz Kotarbiński’s reliable carer, the ethics of reverence for life as presented by that great doctor of the humanities Albert Schweitzer, and about the selected civic virtues which Maria Ossowska presented in her article „The model of a citizen in democracy”. And so an attempt to design the ideal model of the contemporary physiotherapist, as desired within a democratic society, constitutes the purpose of this study.

The five factor trait of conscientiousness is a supertrait, denoting on one hand a pattern of excessive labor, rigidity, orderliness and compulsivity, and on the other hand a pattern of strict rectitude, scrupulosity, dutifulness and morality. In both respects the obsessive-compulsive personality is conscientious; indeed, it has been labeled a disorder of extreme conscientiousness (Widiger et al., 2009). Antisocial personality disorder, in the present paper, is described as occupying the opposite end of the conscientiousness continuum. The antisocial is impulsive rather than compulsive, illicit rather than licit, and furtive rather than forthright.After clinically comparing the obsessive and antisocial personalities, the present paper invokes evolutionary theory to explain their resultant behavioral, ideological, political and demographic differences.

This article presents a preliminary study of links between personal constructs and traits. The conceptual framework for this study is the domains of personality model postulated by McAdams (1995) and McAdams & Pals (2006), and we tried to find concomitances between variables of two different levels, the dispositional level and the identity level. A repertory grid and the NEO-FFI inventory were distributed to a total of 273 individuals, 146 representing the general population, and 137 having pathologies. By applying an exploratory design ex post facto in which Pearson's correlations and ANOVAs were used, we found associations between the content of the constructs used and the traits. The neuroticism trait was most closely related to the content of the constructs. There were also clear associations between construct structure and scores on traits. Neurotic subjects were more rigid, whereas agreeable and conscientious subjects were more complex. However, the type of sample (normal or pathological) is a basic modulator of the relationships between constructs and traits.
