Helping Ukrainian war refugees in Poland: The emergence of a political assemblage
Prosocial collective action has been abundantly theorized across political and social science. Related scholarship tends to focus mostly on attitudes or intentions, and less often on actual behaviors. Moreover, emphasis is placed on individual prosocial acts and their aggregation rather than on conceptions of collective, nonreducible phenomena. In this study, we invoke metatheoretical systems thinking to examine more closely the emergence of political assemblages. Drawing on collective action and cultural psychology literature, we argue that in the aftermath of the Russian invasion, a unique climate (assemblage) of solidarity was created in Poland, one conducive to helping, constitutive of affective, discursive, axiological, ideological, and cultural components. The results of latent SEM provide evidence for excellent fit (robust CFI = .986) of the non-recursive model (hypothesizing a reciprocal relationship between helping and affect) to the data from a nationwide sample of participants (N = 1034). The model tested as invariant across three groups of participant-helpers: (1) housing refugees, (2) volunteers, and (3) those helping indirectly. However, differences were found among these groups suggesting that the motivations for helping and the mechanisms involved were varied. Overall, the research highlights the centrality and reciprocity of affect in collective prosociality, as well as its axiological directionality through humanism, with political orientation serving a complementary mediating role.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026-05-26
An Evaluation of the Empirical Studies on the Significance of the Original Audi Manufacturer’s Trademark in Shaping the Perception of Automotive Spare Parts Among Audi Car Owners and Professionals as Published in Tischner, A., Stasiuk, K.: ‘‘Spare Parts, Repairs, Trade Marks and Consumer Understanding’’
Tischner and Stasiuk (IIC 54:26–60 (2023), https://doi.org/10.1007/s40319-022-01274-8) concluded that the Audi trademark does not influence the evaluation of independently manufactured automotive spare parts, arguing that both consumers and experts interpret such trademarks primarily as descriptive cues of intended use rather than as indicators of origin. The present paper revisits their empirical evidence and challenges this conclusion by reanalyzing the original raw dataset made publicly available in the OSF repository. We argue that the original authors’ conclusions stem from a methodological error – specifically, the aggregation of evaluations across participants who differed fundamentally in their perceptions of the part’s manufacturer. Using the original data, we reclassified both Audi owners and automotive experts according to the manufacturer they recalled after product exposure: Audi, the independent manufacturers named in the description, or other/unknown manufacturers. Separate analyses of variance were then conducted within these groups for four evaluation dimensions: perceived quality, material durability, appearance, and purchase intention. The reanalysis focused on the radiator grille stimulus, across four trademark presentation conditions. Contrary to Tischner and Stasiuk’s conclusions, the results consistently show that brand recall significantly shaped product evaluations. Both consumers and experts who mistakenly identified Audi as the manufacturer evaluated the spare parts more favorably than those who correctly identified independent manufacturers or expressed uncertainty. These effects were particularly pronounced when the Audi trademark was embedded in the product or visually integrated into its design, and in several conditions reached statistical significance. The high rate of manufacturer misidentification – despite explicit textual information – underscores the influential role of trademarks as associative signals affecting perceived quality and value. Overall, this reanalysis demonstrates that the Audi trademark did influence the evaluation of automotive spare parts. The original claim that trademarks have lost their origin-identifying and evaluative function is therefore unsupported and inconsistent with both the empirical evidence and the broader literature on branding and consumer perception.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026-06
Azyl, próg, funkcjoznak. O macie do jogi na przykładzie dwóch poznańskich szkół
The yoga mat serves as a point of departure for an analysis of contemporary conceptions, practices, and tensions surrounding yoga, particularly in relation to materiality, spirituality, and consumption. Although mats in their current form did not exist in traditional Indian practices, their emergence in the 1980s reflects a shift in emphasis from yoga’s spiritual core toward its physical and fitness-oriented dimensions. Understood as a liminal object, the mat enables an examination of how boundaries of intimacy, individuality, and community are negotiated, as well as how practices of self-care are ritualized. The study is situated within the framework of the turn toward materiality and research on consumer culture and aesthetics. It is based on a qualitative case study of two yoga communities in Poznań (within the metropolitan middle class), drawing on autoethnographic observation, participant observation, interpretative interviews, practitioners’ and teachers’ accounts, and an analysis of yoga mat design and marketing materials.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026
Assessing Early Self-Regulation in Classroom Contexts: A Screening Tool for Atypical Cognitive Development
Difficulties in self-regulation (SR) often become visible before atypical cognitive development is formally identified and may limit children's participation in everyday classroom activities. This study introduces a brief, group-based observational screening tool for assessing cognitive, behavioral, and emotional SR in preschool classroom contexts. Across two studies involving children aged 3–7 years with typical development and developmental risk, we examined inter-rater reliability, differences across group and individual administration formats, convergent validity with the Head-Toes-Knees-Shoulders task, and screening sensitivity. The battery showed high inter-rater reliability and comparable performance across administration formats. Convergent validity followed domain- and task-specific patterns, with stronger alignment for cognitive and behavioral tasks. Screening analyses indicated that selected tasks differentiated children at developmental risk from typically developing peers, with fair classification accuracy. Overall, the findings partially support group-based observational assessment as an ecologically valid approach to early screening of SR difficulties.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article - 2026-05-26
Awareness shapes fairness: how Children’s emotion atributions reflect sensitivity to unequal treatment
How do children reason about fairness when transgressors receive different consequences for the same misdeed? In a pre-registered study with N = 122 participants at 6 to 9 years, we investigated how children evaluate unequal norm enforcement (punishment vs. leniency) and how they integrate a transgressor’s knowledge state about the inequality into their emotion attributions. Results showed that children revised their emotion attributions depending on whether the transgressor was aware of being treated differently. Children initially attributed happiness to an unpunished transgressor or sadness to a punished transgressor. However, they subsequently attributed mixed emotions such as guilt or sadness combined with relief to transgressors who learned about the inequality but not to transgressors who only knew about the punishment to the self. These results suggest that children reflect not only on the consequences to the individual but also on the transgressors’ knowledge about whether a meta-norm of equality has been violated.Pozostałe osiągnięcia naukoweArtykuły (zamknięty dostęp)Journal article
