Adolescents' credibility justifications when evaluating online texts.
2022
AbstractResearch has shown that students differ in their abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts, and, in general, many perform poorly on online evaluation tasks. This study extended current knowledge by examining students’ abilities to justify the credibility of online texts from different perspectives, thus providing a more nuanced understanding of students’ credibility evaluation ability.

Additionally, we examined how …

We use a cross-sectional self-reported design and a sample of 817 front line employees working in 118 health care organiz…
Dlaczego warto jeść piętki chleba? : o przesądach kulinarnych
2016
Z kulinariami związanych jest wiele różnorodnych przesądów. W kuchni polskiej znajduje się mnóstwo składników żywieniowych, których spożywanie na przestrzeni wieków obrosło wieloma wierzeniami. W niniejszym artykule omówiono zachowania przesądne dotyczące wybranych składników żywnościowych (chleba, kapusty, ziemniaków, cukru) oraz rekwizytów kuchennych (garnków i sztućców). Zaprezentowane materiały pochodzą z dwóch źródeł: zastanych (opracowań etnograficznych wydanych przed 1945 r.) i wywołanych (zebranych podczas wywiadów prowadzonych w 2015 r. w obrębie dwóch województw - śląskiego i opolskiego).
