Taking stock of Syria's Approach to Transitional Justice
In December 2024, in a sweeping military campaign, the HTS overran several government strongholds in Syria and took Damascus, installing a transitional government and creating new institutions. According to Huntington’s model, this was a replacement transition which did not require the new rulers to negotiate a transitional agreement with the incumbent government. In this article, we argue that the HTS leadership nevertheless cannot freely choose among the available options of transitional justice, but instead is constrained by external and domestic factors, which are already about to push the new government into the direction of restorative and symbolic transitional justice measures. In view of Syria’s dire economic conditions, redistributive victim-centered justice is just as unlikely as harsh and broad punishment for perpetrators of past human rights abuses. The latter would be severely hampered by the new rulers’ rule-of-law commitments and the weakness of the post-al-Asad judiciary.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026-02-01

Diplomacy of grievance: National narcissism, exclusive victimhood, and demanding WWII reparations in Poland and Greece
Demands for war reparations often re- emerge in political discourse, decades after conflicts have ended. This research investigates the psychological underpinnings of public support for claiming World War II reparations, focusing on the roles of national narcissism and ingroup victim beliefs. Across four pre-registered studies conducted in Poland and Greece (total N = 2780), we show that national narcissism—a defensive belief in national greatness coupled with a desire for external recognition—predicts support for war reparation claims. This relationship is mediated by perceptions of ingroup victim beliefs, particularly exclusive victimhood, which emphasizes the ingroup's unique suffering. Our findings illuminate how identity-based motivations, especially those rooted in narcissistic group beliefs and selective historical narratives, can shape support for populist foreign policy initiatives long after the original conflict has ended.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026-01-16
Two faces of emotional competence: Unique roles of intrapersonal and interpersonal skills in adaptive functioning
Emotional competence (EC) encompasses a range of skills used to manage one's own emotions (intrapersonal EC) and to understand and respond to others' emotions (interpersonal EC). How do these theoretically distinct dimensions of EC relate to adaptive functioning? The present research reports three large-scale studies (N total = 2508 adults) using both cross-sectional and longitudinal designs. Our findings largely replicate previous research while extending it across a large community sample and multiple analytic approaches, suggesting that the distinction between intrapersonal and interpersonal EC remains a plausible and statistically supported framework for conceptualizing EC. Intrapersonal EC was consistently associated with indicators of personal adaptive functioning (e.g., emotion regulation, life satisfaction, subjective health, happiness, fewer depressive symptoms), whereas interpersonal EC showed more selective associations, particularly with relational outcomes such as satisfaction with relationship status. Loneliness was concurrently associated with both dimensions. Longitudinally, intrapersonal EC was prospectively associated with subsequent emotion regulation strategies and happiness. Overall, the findings suggest that intra- and interpersonal EC represent distinct yet complementary emotional resources that are differentially associated with personal and relational adaptation, refining theoretical models of EC and informing interventions to promote well-being and relational adjustment.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026
MCorrSeqPerm: Searching for the Maximum Statistically Significant System of Linear Correlations and its Application in Work Psychology
The paper addresses the problem of detecting a statistically significant subset of input considered relationships. The Pearson linear correlation coefficient calculated from a sample was used to determine the strength of a relationship. Simultaneous testing of the significance of many relationships is related to the issue of multiple hypothesis testing. In such a scenario, the probability of making a type I error without proper error control is, in practice, much higher than the assumed level of significance. The paper proposes an alternative approach: a new stepwise procedure (MCorrSeqPerm) allowing for finding the maximum statistically significant system of linear correlations keeping the error at the assumed level. The proposed procedure relies on a sequence of permutation tests. Its application in the analysis of relationships in the problem of examining stress experienced at work and job satisfaction was compared with Holm’s classic method in detecting the number of significant correlations.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article
