Forecasts indicate that the coming months will be important shift in the ratio between the number of people in the age before the new regulations, deemed production (up to 60 years for women and 65 years for men) and transition. The period after 2020 will be characterized by rapid aging of the population. Society, so their decision-makers, representatives of generation Y are facing a new challenge, taking into account the increasing proportion of mature persons in relation to young people (up to 35 years of age) in the labor market, to answer the questions: how to create the conditions for a sense of social security, the possibility of self-realization and achieving your career goals mature workers as "discounted" the potential and social capital, which gathered in the course of their work. The object of this study is the attitude of the representatives of generation Y to a particular group of mature workers – knowledge workers – teachers. Development seeks to obtain answers to the question: what attitude to teachers 65 plus present representatives of particular groups of communities of learners: postgraduate students, students of public and private universities, Polish and foreign, as well as academics belonging to the generation Y in relation to their older colleagues. Another research problem was getting to know the opinions of younger and older (65 plus) academic teachers on the factors that accompany the high quality of life of research and teaching staff during the period of late adulthood. To answer the questions formulated in this way, research was conducted in a group of students: post-graduate students and academic teachers with a total of 476 people. From this group, 378 represented students and post-graduate students. Among this group, 56 people were students of post-graduate studies at a public university, 74 students of public universities, 103 students of a private university 111 foreign students of a non-public university and 34 – non-public university and didactic employees. There were also 38 academic teachers aged 65 and over in the study group. The study used three diagnostic questions specially developed (with a reliability calculated by Cronbach's alpha coefficient above 0.76) of the Questionnaire Attitudes Towards Academic Teachers aged 65 plus. As a result of the conducted research, it turned out that the attitudes of the majority of respondents to teachers and scholars 65 plus are not burdened with negative stereotypes, and the age of mature people is not a criterion for lowering the assessment of their professionalism. At the same time, it was found that mature academic teachers more than their younger colleagues perceive the negative significance of the age of 65 plus in scientific and didactic work.

Background. The objective of the paper was to determine attitudes represented by students of the following fields of study: Physical Education and Physiotherapy at the University School of Physical Education in Wrocław towards people with intellectual disabilities. Material and methods. The respondents (N = 167) completed a modified (the notion: a disabled person/invalid and a handicapped person was replaced by one term: a person with intellectual disabilities) version of Scale of Attitudes towards the Handicapped by A.E. Sękowski. The obtained results have undergone a two-way ANOVA statistical analysis based on the following design: gender (female vs. male) × field of study (Physical Education vs. Physiotherapy) × attitudes towards people with intellectual disabilities. Results and conclusions. The obtained results indicate that more positive attitudes towards people with intellectual disabilities are shown by students of Physiotherapy than those studying Physical Education. The post hoc comparison of means in the statistically insignificant two-way interaction of students’ genders and their field of study indicates that the effect observed previously is caused by less favorable attitudes towards people with intellectual disabilities shown by female students of Physical Education than by the rest of subjects.

Introduction. Differences and inequalities connected with the place where a person lives are a subject of interest to social sciences, sociology in particular. Empirical findings indicate that residents of urban and rural areas differ significantly in terms of such variables as physical development, health condition, life expectancy, affluence, education level, access to power, cultural capital and so on. It is interesting to check whether the above regularity also applies to young people's attitudes towards physical culture. The aim of this study was to examine attitudes which middle school pupils (ages between 13 and 16) in Poland's urban and rural areas held to physical culture. Material and methods. The study involved a survey conducted between 10th November 2011 and 10th March 2012 on a purposive sample of 336 children. They were pupils aged 13-16 in two middle schools in Świętokrzyskie province: the Jan Karski no. 4 Middle School in the city of Kielce and the John Paul II Middle School in the village of Masłów, Kielce county. The diagnostic poll method was used in the study and an original, categorised poll was the research tool. The surveying technique was an auditorium questionnaire. Results. After analysis, empirical data obtained from the survey shows that the place of residence causes slights differences in middle school pupils' attitudes towards physical culture. The data allows for the conclusion that pupils from urban areas possess a little better knowledge of physical culture than their peers from rural areas. Pupils from villages have, in turn, a slightly more positive emotional approach to physical culture than pupils in cities. Urban middle school pupils manifest more positive behaviours within physical culture than rural pupils. The place of residence does not cause such striking differences in attitudes to physical culture as it does in other social and cultural variables, such as affluence, education level, access to power, health condition, fitness, participation in culture and so on.

Observation of reality shows that the attitude of today's society towards the elderly is very heterogenous and ambivalent. Both positive and negative attitudes can be observed. What is more, one can talk about attitudes of indifference and a certain social distance. The main goal of the research is to show how attitudes towards the elderly are shaped in our society and whether demographic variables such as gender, age, marital status, place of residence, or level of education differentiate these attitudes. Can we talk about the formation of certain patterns among the younger generation, which create the image of older people in adults? The sample consisted of 1,025 people. The Scale of Attitudes to- wards Seniors (SPWS) by Łukasiewicz and Kowalski was administered. The entire tool consisted of 60 items divided into three sca les: Respect and Support, Rejection and Misunderstanding, and Social Distance. In order to examine the attitudes of the respondents to their grandparents and their role in family life, seven self-authored statements were attached to the questionnaire. The analysis of the obtained results shows no significant differences between positive and negative attitudes towards seniors. All attitudes are at a moderate level. The factors differentiating the intensity of attitudes were: gender, marital status, place of residence, and education level. The indicator of the development of positive attitudes towards seniors was the time spent with grandparents in the past and positive opinions about grandparents provided by par- ents. Earlier intergenerational relations are of no significant importance when it came to the intensification of negative attitudes. The research confirmed the existence of heterogeneous attitudes towards seniors. However, there is no clear advantage of positive attitudes over the negative. The conclusions from the research point to the role of broadly understood education in shaping attitudes towards the elderly. In the age of an ageing society, activities that show the significance of older people for society, and what value they are for all of us, become important. The family and multi- generational relationships play a significant role here.

The article shows the dynamics of mutual perception of Poles and Ukrainians that occur against the background of growing intensity of Polish-Ukrainian contact, which is especially clearly seen after Poland has joined the European Union. These contacts led to the situation, when the image of Ukrainians in the eyes of the Poles turned warmer and ceased to be as deeply as before rooted in history. Poles noticed some values they share with Ukrainians. The image of Poland and Poles in the eyes of Ukrainians has a lot of very positive elements: Poles are modern, agile and tolerant, and Poland is a country where the authorities care about people and respect their freedom and where there is a rapid economic growth. In the attitudes of Poles there are many inconsistencies and paradoxes: Ukrainian state is assessed as ineffective and affected with corruption, but at the same time Poles would like to see Ukraine as a member of the European Union. In the Polish associations with Ukraine one can see the echo of tragic events of the World War II, but at the same time the Ukrainians are widely accepted in Poland as workers and often do jobs that require a significant level of trust: such as baby sitting, taking care of elderly parents or cleaning up the private apartments. The growing number of immigrants from Ukraine in Poland can, however, lead to conflicts over access to the labour market, which may have broader social effect. Migration crisis in Europe contributes also to the growth of hostility towards immigrants in Polish society. This change may also affect the Ukrainians.

Interest in Web-based and computer-assisted language testing is growing in the field of English for academic purposes (EAP). In this study, four groups of undergraduate EAP students (n=120), each group consisted of 30 students, were randomly selected from four different disciplines, i.e. biology, political sciences, psychology, and law. The four groups were homogeneous regarding their English proficiency. Four course-specific web-based tests of academic vocabulary were administered to each group with regard to their specific disciplines. Questionnaires were employed to explore the EAP students’ perceptions and self-efficacy concerning web-based language testing. Also, the perceptions of the four groups of undergraduates were compared in order to identify the differences among their attitudes. The findings would have implications for renewing assessment approaches and methods used in EAP instruction.

Affective learner factors were first considered as a cause of success in language learning. This was followed by a change in approach and recently authors (e.g., Edelenbos, Johnstone, & Kubanek, 2006) have considered them an important outcome, especially in early foreign language learning (FLL). Current research into affective learner factors in early FLL tries to catch the developmental aspects too, and studies are emerging that take a contextual view as well. This paper describes a study on affective characteristics of young FL learners that combines the developmental and contextual perspectives. Using the case study methodology the author analyses the affective profiles of three young learners of English as a foreign language who were followed for 4 years. The analyses are done taking into account their immediate language learning environment, home support, out-of-school exposure to English and language achievement. The findings suggest that affective learner factors contribute to the dynamic complexity of early FLL.

Even though there are a plethora of CALL materials available to EFL teachers nowadays, very limited attention has been directed toward the issue that most EFL teachers are merely the consumers of CALL materials. The main challenge is to equip EFL teachers with the required CALL materials development skills to enable them to be contributors to CALL materials development (Motteram, 2011). Accordingly, this research was carried out to unravel the current challenges and difficulties in enabling EFL teachers to acquire CALL materials development and implementation skills. Three groups of EFL stakeholders, i.e. EFL teachers (n=208) who taught English at universities, schools, and language teaching institutions, teacher educators (n=15) who were university instructors and educated MA and PhD students of TEFL, and teacher trainers (n=32) who mainly prepared EFL teachers for teaching at private language teaching institutions, were identified and participated in this study. The findings of in-depth interviews and questionnaires confirmed that the three groups of participants had positive attitudes toward the use of CALL materials and development of CALL materials by EFL teachers while teacher educators had slightly more positive attitudes. It was further illustrated that the EFL teachers did not have the required basic skills to develop or use CALL materials. In addition, there are some impediments to the development of CALL materials by EFL teachers. Moreover, the findings of observations and interviews indicated that CALL materials development is not a part of teacher education/training programs in Iran and the EFL teachers do not use CALL materials in their EFL courses. Finally, the participants proposed some strategies based on which EFL teachers would be able to obtain the necessary skills to develop and use CALL materials.

Zdaniem wymienionych autorów, wartości i postawy stanowią elementy systemu przekonań, pomiędzy którymi zachodzi formalny i funkcjonalny związek. Wartości stanowią punkt odniesienia dla formułowania globalnych ocen i kształtowania indywidualnych postaw wobec rzeczywistości. Leżą również u podstaw inicjacji zachowań.

The conflicts associated with the memory of the Holocaust in Poland reflect educational gaps in the Polish education system (lack of bad memory). Comparison with other similar studies in Europe and beyond allows one to reveal affinities and divergences in patterns of behaviour in various states in relation to the historical past, social identity and collective memory. This text looks at the consciousness of young Poles, in terms of attitudes toward Jews, the Holocaust and memory of the Holocaust. The data presented are the preliminary results of the author’s longitudinal study “Attitudes of Young Poles toward the Jews and the Holocaust”. Quantitative and qualitative studies include field studies and participant observation of educational projects in Tykocin, Treblinka, Warsaw, Lublin, Bodzentyn and Kielce. The number and scope of initiatives in Poland attempting to bring back the memory of Jewish neighbours indicate that civic institutions and individuals are intensifying their efforts toteach their fellow citizens about the Holocaust, however their impact should be assessed in detail.

The purpose of this study was a diagnosis of the attitudes of students of Warsaw universities towards people with disabilities and the variables which impacted on these attitudes. Additionally, we examined the relationship between the need for social approval and explicit attitudes towards people with disabilities. The study focused on two components of attitudes: behavioural (measured by preferable social distance – SDSB) and cognitive (tested with a semantic differential scale – SDSO). 318 students completed a survey including a demographic sheet, a social desirability scale, the SDSB and SDSO. The results indicate that students expressed positive attitudes towards people with disabilities. The impact of such variables as gender, the type of disability and the need for social approval was registered and were differentiated in regard to components of attitudes. The results are discussed with reference to earlier research and cues for further studies are suggested.

The study presents partial results of the research aimed to investigate the impact of information and communication technologies in the subject of geography on the attitudes of students with mild intellectual disability who are educated in special primary schools. The study is about the issue of measurement and the research using methodology of a highly valid Single Case Design that is evidence-based. The methodology provides useful information for the area of special education, which is widespread abroad (mainly in the USA) with a very long and productive history. The universality of the conclusions of our study is limited to the choice of participants and the subject of the study. Considering that in the field of special education in this area is very poorly understood, we recommend subsequent research decisions to be performed using Single Case methodology. The conclusions obtained in the course of further research, can become a more precise answer to the question of the effectiveness of ICT impact on the position of a student with a mild mental disorder. At the same time it must be remembered that each child manifests him/herself in a specific way, and certain significant conclusions could produce a very pathetic impression. We would like to recall that the methodology of Single Case Design is based on evidence and help to a particular child. The lack of research results on the study of the relations of students with mild mental disorders to school geography lessons gives motivation for further study and was the reason for this study. The aim of this study of Single Subject Design was to study the effect of ICT on the attitude of pupils with a mild mental disorder to the school lesson. It seems that the results of this study support ICT as an educational intervention. Because the information obtained showed a gradual increase in positive students’ attitude to school lessons using ICT, taking into account the results of the post intervention phase (learning a lesson without ICT), has also shown strengthening of positive attitudes towards school geography lessons. The final results have shown only a slight increase in positive attitudes of pupils to lessons where have been used information and communication technologies. The personality of the teacher is a more effective factor which influences the attitudes of students to the school lesson.

The article analyses attitudes of Poles towards the state. The attitudes are shaped by four factors: both recent and past history, experiences of the young liberal-democratic republic and opening of Poland to the world. Research, conducted on all-national sample in November, 2007, shows that for the majority of citizens of Poland state is an intrinsic value, however they have various visions of its optimal model (from nearly authoritarian to libertarian). Welfare expectations towards the state are widely spread. This attitude has strong positive affective ground, which, however, does not eliminate critical assessment of ways the state is actually functioning. Particularly the criticism is related to unequal treatment of various groups of citizens.

W prezentowanym artykule opisano związek między trójwymiarowym modelem empatii a postawami wobec przemocy. W badaniach wzięło udział 575 osób (356 kobiet i 199 mężczyzn). Uczestnicy badania wypełniali trzy kwestionariusze: Kwestionariusz postaw wobec przemocy, Kwestionariusz postaw wobec przemocy w bliskich związkach oraz Skalę Wrażliwości Empatycznej (SWE) mierzącą: przyjmowanie perspektywy, empatyczną troskę i osobistą przykrość. Wyniki badania wskazują na istnienie związku miedzy empatią a postawami wobec przemocy, przy czym Przyjmowanie Perspektywy i Empatyczna Troska są skorelowane ujemnie ze ogólnym wynikiem skal postaw wobec przemocy, zaś Osobista Przykrość dodatnio. Badania wskazują też na istnienie różnic płciowych – skłonność mężczyzn do przyjmowania cudzej perspektywy zdaje się silniej korelować z ich postawami wobec przemocy w życiu społecznym niż to ma miejsce wśród kobiet. Przeprowadzone badanie pozwala sądzić, że trójwymiarowy model empatii może pogłębić naszą wiedzę o postawach wobec przemocy w szerszym kontekście społecznym i w bliskich związkach.

The attitudes towards violence were examined in the context of three-demensional model of empathy. In the presented study participated 575 persons (356 women and 199 men). The participants filled out three questionnaires: Attitudes Toward Violence Questionnaire, Attitudes Toward Intimate Partner Violence Questionnaire, and Emphatic Sensitiveness Scale (SWE) to measure three dimensions of empathy: perspective taking, emphatic concern, and personal distress. The results of the study implicate that empathy is associated with attitudes towards violence in general, as well as in the intimate relationship. Perspective taking and empathic concern were negatively associated with the general results in the attitudes towards violence questionnaires, while personal distress was associated positively. Moreover, the results indicate sex differences – in the group of men perspective taking and empathy are higher correlated. Our findings prove that a multidimensional approach to empathy has a potential to broader our understanding of attitudes towards violence.

Celem badań było określenie postaw uczniów szkół podstawowych wobec kultury fizycznej, lekcji wychowania fizycznego i aktywności ruchowej. Materiał i metody: Badania zrealizowano na przełomie maja i czerwca 2020 roku wśród uczniów szkół podstawowych z Tarnowa i Krakowa. Przebadano 336 uczniów, w tym 141 dziewcząt. W badaniach wykorzystano Kwestionariusz do badania postaw młodzieży wobec kultury fizycznej autorstwa S. Strzyżewskiego. Wyniki: Wyniki badań wykazały pozytywny stosunek uczniów wobec kultury fizycznej. Dla wielkości badanych (76,2%) aktywność fizyczna sprawia przyjemność. Ponad połowa uczniów (57,7%) odczuwa zadowolenie z lekcji wychowania fizycznego. Ponadto chłopcom, częściej niż dziewczętom, ćwiczenia fizyczne sprawiały przyjemność. Wnioski: Uczniowie przejawiają pozytywny stosunek do kultury fizycznej, lekcji wychowania fizycznego i aktywności fizycznej. Poziom postaw chłopców jest wyższy niż dziewcząt. Wskazane byłoby zwiększenie atrakcyjności zajęć wf dla dziewcząt w celu kształtowania pozytywnych postaw.

Introduction: One of the main goals of physical education is forming students’ proper attitudes towards physical exercises and culture. The study aimed to determine primary school students’ attitudes towards physical culture, physical education lessons and physical activity. Material and methods: The tests were conducted at the turn of May and June 2020 among primary school students from Kraków and Tarnów. They comprised 336 students, including 141 girls. Research employed the Questionnaire for testing attitudes of the youth towards physical culture by S. Strzyżewski (Pol. Kwestionariusz do badania postaw młodzieży wobec kultury fizycznej). Results: The test results demonstrated students’ positive attitudes towards physical culture. For most of the examined (76.2%) physical activity means pleasure. More than a half of the students (57.7%) are satisfied with physical education classes. Boys enjoyed physical exercises more frequently than girls. Conclusions: Students present a positive attitude towards physical culture, physical education lessons and physical activity. The level of attitudes is higher among boys than girls. It would be advisable to make physical education lessons more attractive to girls in order to form positive attitudes.

This paper investigates the evaluation of the English sounds /θ/ and /ð/ as produced by European non-native speakers. Using the data from a larger web survey, we compared the error judgements by different native and non-native users of English. This was done to establish whether there is any normative convergence among European non-native speakers, or if this was counteracted by other patterns, such as the presence or absence of these sounds in their L1s. Our analysis shows that while European non-native judges do not differ consistently from native-speakers in their judgements, there are also subtle differences between different groups of non-native speakers, implying that we should be careful not to generalise across groups about non-native attitudes to these sounds.

Każda placówka Służby Zdrowia (szpital, przychodnia etc.) funkcjonująca w obecnej sytuacji gospodarczej ukierunkowanej marketingowo, podlega wpływom środowiska, silnej konkurencji innych jednostek tego samego typu oraz rosnącym wymaganiom ze strony społeczeństwa. Szczególnie widoczne stało się to w ostatnich latach, a zwłaszcza od momentu realizacji założeń nowej reformy zdrowia. Istotnego znaczenia nabiera aktualnie koncentracja na niematerialnych zasobach organizacji i kierowaniu nimi poprzez efektywnych pod wieloma względami pracowników. Niniejszy artykuł wśród swych wielorakich celów teoretycznych, poznawczych i aplikacji praktycznych ma za zadanie uzmysłowić kadrom zarządzającym samodzielnymi jednostkami organizacyjnymi służby zdrowia, iż kluczem do sukcesu rynkowego w dobie marketingowej rywalizacji jest rozwój potencjału społecznego, jako strategicznego czynnika przewagi konkurencyjnej.

Research results presented in the article focus on the correlation between attitudes towards people with mental disorders and chosen personality traits. Research involved 150 people – employees of social care homes. Job characteristics and the nature of contact with social care homes dwellers constituted the criterion for placing the analysed person into one of the subgroups. Three subgroups of equal size have been recognised: employees at social – therapeutic department(I), medical staff (nurses) (II), economic department employees (III). The following methods have been used: The Scale for Defining Attitudes Towards People with Mental Disorders, Raven’s Progressive Matrices, Study of Values by G. W. Allport, P. E. Vernon, G. Lindzey, Stait-Trait Anxiety Inventory by C. D. Spielberger, J. Strelau, M. Tysarczyk, K. Wrześniewski, The Questionnaire: ”What are you like?” by P. Sears. Within the analyzed group people from subgroup I manifested the most positive attitudes, people from subgroup II were slightly less favourably inclined, and people from subgroup III showed the least positive approach. The application of multiple regression equation showed that among the analysed variables trait anxiety has significant meaning for the type of attitudes both in group I and II. In subgroup III a significant influence on manifested attitudes is exerted by the following variables: economic values, intellectual level, artistic values and trait anxiety.

For the purpose of specifying the concept of the quality of preschool education, this publication presents part of the results of a wider study aimed at researching the notion of the “good/quality kindergarten teacher”. 72 students preparing to become preschool teachers in the Faculty of Primary and Preschool Education of the Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski” in Bulgaria took part in this research. The main method used for research is analysis of the students’ individual written essays on the subject “My idea of a good/quality kindergarten teacher”. The collected essays were subjected to qualitative analysis aimed at the distribution of the contained opinions regarding the essence of the notion of “good/quality kindergarten teacher” into an unlimited number of semantic categories, provisionally divided into two main groups: 1) general personal qualities, skills, attitudes, etc.; and 2) specialized professional qualities, skills, attitudes, etc. This paper presents the distributions of 136 categories, defined following the analysis of the data. Since half of the participating students (36) were approached at the beginning of their university education and the other half (36) participated during the middle of their last year, the publication specifically marks some of the most important differences in the relevant viewpoints of first-year students in comparison to the opinion of graduating students.
