Self-Efficacy of Piano Teachers’ of Specialized Music School
2009
The piano teachers from specialized music schools have been often criticized for a lack of psychological and pedagogical competences, i.e. emotional instability, proneness for engendering fear, inability to motivate pupils etc. This paper deals with the following questions: How do piano teachers self evaluate their professional competences? Will their self-assessment be the same as this of their supervisors? The theoretical framework is provided by the theory of self-efficacy and teacher self-efficacy. The main findings indicate that 130 surveyed piano teachers have a very high level of self-efficacy. At the same time the results reveal contradiction between the piano teachers’ self-efficac…
The Trap of Proximity Violence. Research and Insights into Male Dominance and Female Resistance
2020
This book aims at shifting the emphasis from a general vision of gender-based violence to a more opaque, yet equally destructive one, that related to "proximity violence". The investigative tension of this book aims at bringing to light the crevasses where violence lurks ready to return in disguise as well as the lairs where it hides. Like a whirlwind, violence appears in all its destructive might and disappears. Precisely because violence is of a proxemic kind it is hard to position with respect to those who wish to objectify it. Its screens are many and the causes that feed it are endowed with a good dose of relational and lexical ambiguity. Because it is profoundly unjust, unfair, wrong,…
O duchowym przywództwie politycznym. Polityka duchowa jako droga dla rozwoju przyszłej Europy
2022
Duchowe przywództwo polityczne odnosi się do sztuki rządzenia państwem, która uwzględnia pełny i wszechstronny rozwój osobowy człowieka, umożliwia obywatelom samorealizację i w ten sposób zaspakaja ludzkie dążenie do osiągnięcia doskonałości moralnej i intelektualnej, osiągającej swój najwyższy stopień rozwoju w świętości jako łączności z doskonałością Boga. Jego celem jest szczęśliwe społeczeństwo, w którym każdy ma możliwość samorealizacji, a jednocześnie szanuje samorealizację innych. Wspiera harmonię społeczną, która wynika ze współdziałania między różnymi grupami w obrębie społeczeństwa oraz jest alternatywą dla dzisiejszej dysharmonii będącej pokłosiem toczącego się konfliktu politycz…

2013
Tatuointien ja lävistysten kasvava suosio on alkanut yleistyä kaikissa sosiaalisissa ja ammatillisissa luokissa, mukaan lukien psykologian opiskelijat ja jopa ammattilaiset psykologit. Tatuoinnit eivät ole enää pelkkä rikollisten ja kapinallisten merkki – niistä on tullut kaikille saatavilla oleva muoti-ilmiö. Ne eivät ole ennenkuulumattomia koristeita monelle nykyiselle ja tulevalle psykologillekaan, joiden työ vaatii oman ulkoasun harkintaa ja nojaa hyvin pitkälti vuorovaikutussuhteen laatuun. Tämä laadullinen tapaustutkimus neljästä tatuoidusta suomalaisesta psykologian ja psykiatrian alan ammattilaisesta pyrkii tutkimaan mitä mahdollisia vaikutuksia tatuoinneilla voi olla psykologin kok…
'I Show Off, Therefore I Am': The Politics of the Selfie
2016
International audience; Named word of the year by the OED in 2013, the “selfie” is a worldwide phenomenon. Many see these digital self-portraits as markers for the spread of narcissism or signs of the blurring of limits between the public and private spheres. Initially popular with young people, selfies were soon adopted by politicians who, in a mediatized society, are eager to adhere to new vogues and use digital trends to self-promote. Like “digital natives”, they attempt to go viral by turning their cellphones on themselves and tweeting. Contrary to more formal images (official portraits, campaign posters) where politicians are clearly packaged and marketed, self-snapped photos taken on …
Polityka publiczna, zarządzanie lokalne, modele samorządu terytorialnego
2018
The implementation of public policies by the local government is connocted with new forms of management. It is a set of actions based on principles that are one of many possible criteria for typology. The models built on this basis allow for comparison of local govermments in Western and Central-Eastern Europe. We gain a picture of differences and similarities in the implementation of own tasks, the approach to the problem of deconcentration and decentralization of power, and new management at the local level aimed at optimizing the effects of public policies.
