Studiowanie za granicą a osądzanie refleksyjne
Studying abroad and reflective judgment

Summary/Abstract: The studies were focused on the intellectual development of Polish students participating in the Erasmus Programme. The basic theoretical context of the research was the theory of reflective judgment by Patricia King and Karen Strohm Kitchener. Pre-reflective, quasi-reflexive or reflective judgment may be triggered in the face of the challenge of dealing with a problem that has no unambiguous solution. The main research question concerned the level of reflective judgment of students participating in the foreign student exchange program. In addition, several other factors related to the family (eg parents’ education) and education of the respondents (eg level of studies) were taken into account. Sixty people participated in the study. The basis for the diagnosis of the level of reflective judgment was the data collected with the help of a standardized interview of reflective judgment. The results of the research clearly indicated a high level of reflexive judgment of the Erasmus Programme participants. The results of studies are in line with the basic assumptions and objectives of international student exchanges, i.e. raising the level of education and strengthening the intellectual potential of the beneficiaries of these programmes.
