SMUTEK. ANALIZA PSYCHOLOGICZNA

Author(s): Andrzej Rynkiewicz / Language(s): Polish

W ostatnim czasie duże zainteresowanie zaczął wzbudzać nastrój, czyli stan o tak małej intensywności, że czasem umyka naszej uwadze. Nie ma on bezpośredniego wpływu na zachowania człowieka, nie stanowi impulsu do działania, nie wybija się na plan pierwszy w naszej świadomości, ale decyduje o tym, jak postrzegamy nasze otoczenie. Nastrój zabarwia wszystkie nasze myśli i dlatego jest w nich cały czas obecny. Dość szczególne miejsce wśród różnych jego rodzajów zajmuje smutek. Właściwie zawsze w myśleniu potocznym był uznawany za uciążliwy i całkowicie niepotrzebny. Książka ujmuje smutek w kontekście najpopularniejszych modeli nastroju i pokazuje, że w wielu sytuacjach jest on o wiele bardziej użyteczny niż nastroje przyjemne. Zawsze pozostaje odczuciem uciążliwym, a czasem nawet bolesnym, ale może przynosić korzyści w postaci usprawnienia niektórych procesów poznawczych czy uodpornienia na błędy postrzegania i ewaluacji.

Author(s): Florent Rrahmani / Language(s): English Issue: 11/2019

The constitutional changes of 1989 in Kosovo, in addition to physical, political andpsychological pressure, exerted social pressure through job dismissals. Job dismissalsbecame a “normal” process, becoming a common way of exercising social pressure.In all these impossibilities in front of which a whole society is placed, self-organization oropposition through self-acting is expressed.In this course, the collapsed life on every sphere, and precisely this collapse burdened evenmore the daily life of these citizens, imposing reflection on these inabilities.While therepressive state was exclusive, degrading, and denigrating for a category of the society,precisely this category got self-integrated through resistance, which can not be calledotherwise but self-organization.In this flow, many subsequent developments came to the fore,such as the comprehensive mobilization of the society, so that individual tasks became selfvoluntarycollective duties and obligations.To this society, faced with such a situation, Solidarity was undoubtedly imposed in every areaof life, having the course from similarities, and “solidarity that comes from similarities is atits maximum when the collective conscience completely wraps up all our conscience andcomplies with it on all points” (Durkheim, 2004).

THE NEED FOR LEADER CREATION AMONGST ROMANIAN SCHOOL PRINCIPALS – EDUCATIONAL POLICY ANALYSIS

Author(s): Adina-Petronela Vechiu / Language(s): English Issue: 13/2020

Many theories of leadership and organisational climate gave been formulated over the years. This paper focuses both on transformational and transactional management and on supportive organisational climates. The theory of transformational educational management was developed as a response to the need for reform in educational systems in the 1970s and 1980s. The central convincing argument for educational staff was the assumption that a transformational leader motivates both teachers and students through increasing their consciousness regarding operational objectives and inspiring them to forego personal interest in favour of the organisational ‘greater good’ (Marks and Printy , 2003, p. 375). This strand of theory attributes certain leadership factors to the transformational leader like idealising influence, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation and individualising consideration amongst others.The transformational leader came about as a response to the need for schools to be led successfully through innovative reforms. This type of leader underlines and accentuates ideas of change, innovation and the influence teachers have in these processes. On the other hand, transactional leadership is based on promoting a negotiation model which helps reaching a certain motivation level. This level is usually expressed through an accepted amount. Conversely, transformational leadership refers to certain assumed responsibilities and moral principles. Both leadership models aim to improve school environments, ultimately targeting progress through building leadership capacities amongst all those involved in facilitating school activities (apud Nedelcu, 2013).

Mediating Grannies: Caring for Young Grandchildren who Use Digital Media

Author(s): Galit Nimrod,Dafna LEMISH,Nelly Elias / Language(s): English Issue: 26 (2)/2020

Based on online surveys conducted in the United States and Israel, this study explored grandmothers’ involvement in mediation of their grandchildren’s digital media use. Study participants were highly involved in restrictive, instructive and supervising mediation—and to a much lesser degree in co-use and technological mediation. Their involvement was significantly associated with their familiarity with digital media popular among children, engagement in other activities with their grandchildren, and past mediation (as mothers). Results highlighted the technical challenges older women face in their efforts to mediate their grandchildren’s digital media use.

Neuroza. Zagrożone męskości

Author(s): Krystyna Kłosińska / Language(s): Polish

The book deals with the figures of masculinity produced by various discourses of the late XIX c.: medical, economic, historical, hygienic. The interpretations relate to literary and paraliterary texts. The figure of the neurasthenic allegorizes masculinities threatened by excessive work, diffuse subjectivity, and perverse sexuality. The Polish idiom of neurosis has its particular manifestation in Without Dogma: Sienkiewicz, contrary to the theorists of neurosis, has designed the protagonist in such a way that his body is the heritage of the vigorous ancestors known from the Trilogy. In the petty bourgeois world of Dulska and Dulski gender has class, economic, socio-cultural determinants.
