Mental health, psychological wellbeing, and coping with stress by Ukrainian war refugees staying in Poland
Background: The ongoing Russian-Ukrainian conflict has led to the large-scale displacement of over one million Ukrainian citizens, predominantly women and children, seeking protection in Poland. This necessitates a rigorous investigation into the factors associated with psychological conditions and adaptive coping mechanisms employed by this vulnerable population. Methods: This quantitative, online survey study comprised a sample of N = 290 adult participants (91.7% female, mean age 43.6 years). Due to the small number of male participants (n = 24, 8.3%), gender was not included as a variable in the analyses. Participants were recruited through social workers and psychologists working in Collective Accommodation Centers, and Integration Centers in Poland for Ukrainian refugees. Depression, Anxiety, and Stress symptoms were assessed using the DASS-21, psychological wellbeing with the PERMA-Profiler, and coping with stress strategies using the Brief-COPE. Results: Analysis revealed significantly elevated psychological distress among Ukrainian refugees in Poland. Multivariate regression models identified independent predictors of mental health, wellbeing and coping with stress. Older age, partnered status, and skills-matched employment are key predictors of depression. Higher education and partnered status are negative predictors of anxiety, and older age is a negative predictor of stress. Skills-matched employment emerged as a predictor of wellbeing, though only 23.5% of this highly educated sample held such positions. Access to information, receipt of psychological assistance, and current employment are predictors of problem-focused coping, while psychological assistance is a predictor of emotion-focused coping. Avoidant coping showed no significant model fit. Conclusion: The findings underscore the critical need for comprehensive, evidence-based mental health interventions and accessible psychosocial support for Ukrainian refugees. The results indicate the modifiable post-migration factors important for refugee adaptation. Policy priorities should include early mental health screening targeting younger adults and unpartnered individuals, facilitation of skills-matched employment, provision of clear information about legal rights and available services, and culturally sensitive interventions that promote adaptive coping mechanisms. - 2025-12-18
Political Parties and Ideological Representation
This chapter analyses the representation of Polish voters by political parties, dissecting party stability and voter allegiance over recent years. It finds that the electoral connection has strengthened: a clear majority of voters in 2019 consistently voted for similar ideological parties compared with a minority in 2001. However, the picture regarding ideological congruence and representation is complex. Despite growing alignment between voters and their preferred parties along the Left–Right spectrum, it is unclear whether or not this signifies ideological representation. Discrepancies surface when delving into more explicit ideological dimensions such as European integration and sociocultural and economic issues, in which there are shifting patterns of congruence influenced by party stances. Furthermore, party performance appears to influence representation, with ideological congruence becoming a stronger determinant of voting during successful periods. This suggests that voters’ perceptions of success may be more integral than ideological kinship to their sense of being represented by a party. - 2025-08-22
Temporal landmarks help to change eating habits: the case of home delivered meals in Poland
Temporal landmarks - such as the beginning of a week or a month - may help individuals overcome present bias and promote delayed gratification in health-related decision-making. Drawing on the concept of negative discounting, wherein delayed consumption gains value through anticipation and imagination, this study investigates whether temporal landmarks function as psychological anchors that facilitate the initiation of real-life dietary change. We analyzed nearly one million orders from 27 diet catering companies in Poland (2022–2023), supplemented by detailed monthly data from August 2024. The results reveal that consumers systematically align the initiation of dietary changes with temporal landmarks. As confirmed by the yearly data analysis, they tend to place orders just before or just after the start of a new month or week. Additionally, there was a strong preference for Monday as the first delivery day, regardless of the length of the catering plan. These findings provide large-scale behavioral evidence supporting the role of negative discounting in health-related consumer behavior. They also demonstrate how temporal landmarks can be strategically leveraged to encourage long-term dietary change. The study offers practical insights for designing interventions that align with natural temporal rhythms to promote healthier eating habits.

Psychologia społeczna. Wydanie drugie zaktualizowane
Nowa wersja podręcznika Psychologia społeczna ukazuje się w 14 lat po jego pierwszej edycji. Później było wiele wydań, bo podręcznik zyskał powszechne uznanie wykładowców i studentów. To wydanie jednak zasadniczo różni się od poprzednich. Współautorem został Tomasz Grzyb. W tomie przybyło wiele nowych fragmentów, niektóre kwestie zaktualizowano bądź opatrzono dodatkowymi komentarzami, odwołując się do świeżej literatury. Przede wszystkim zmienił się świat dookoła nas, pojawiły się nowe zjawiska, jak na przykład światowa pandemia COVID-19 i wraz z tym potrzeba odniesienia się do jej psychologicznych konsekwencji, a o wielu zjawiskach, którymi zajmuje się psychologia społeczna wiemy dziś więcej niż kilkanaście lat temu. Nie pozostało to bez wpływu na sam podręcznik – jego nowa, zmodyfikowana i przeredagowana treść lepiej oddaje charakter zmieniającej się, choć ciągle tak samo fascynującej dziedziny, jaką jest psychologia społeczna. Profesorowie Bogdan Wojciszke i Tomasz Grzyb, psychologowie o światowej renomie, napisali podręcznik do psychologii społecznej, jakiego jeszcze w Polsce nie było. Książka obejmuje wszystkie klasyczne zagadnienia składające się na tę dyscyplinę oraz zagadnienia relatywnie nowe, takie jak kwestie różnic płci, nowych mediów, społeczeństwa sieci, miłości i władzy. Napisana jasnym i barwnym językiem skupia się na prawidłowościach rządzących ludzką psychiką i postępowaniem. Pokazuje, w jak fascynujący sposób psychologia społeczna odpowiada na pytanie, kim jest człowiek i na czym polega jego społeczna natura. Wcześniejsze wydania tej książki stały się fundamentem dydaktyki akademickiej na kierunku psychologia. - 2025-08-11
What Puppygirls Know? The (in)Human Pedagogy of a Trans Feminine Style
‘Puppygirls’ is a name for a particular kinky trans feminine lesbian style, rooted in the long history of trans erotic productions, and currently thriving on social media platforms, such as Twitter (now X), Bluesky, or Discord. In this article, I provide an analysis of the style that is rooted in personal immersion in ‘puppygirl culture’. Using several examples of puppygirl media productions, I argue for the possibility of reading the puppygirl style as a critical practice: one that hints at ways of being trans that do rely on the ciscentric understanding of ‘the human’ as their point of reference. In doing so, I show how puppygirl style resonates with theoretical interventions in the field of trans studies offered by scholars such as Susan Stryker and Talia Mae Bettcher. Rural protest 2012-2022
The database contains occurrences of collective acts of rural protest. It contains a catalogue of all publicly registered rural collective protests events in 2012–2022—a universe. Definition Rural is defined as either 1. occurring within a rural area; or 2. involving rural actors (groups or organizations based in rural communities; or 3. pertaining to issues specific to the countryside, rural life, rural issues, agriculture or the natural environment. “Public” is understood to mean an action which is reported in at least one source. “Collective” is an action undertaken by at least three people. A collective public event is an act of protest if it is undertaken to articulate certain specified demands and is not a routine or legally prescribed behaviour of a social or political organization and whose form deviates from the routinely accepted way of voicing demands. Demands are “articulated” when the participants (whether organized or not) turn to institutions, organizations and enterprises, both public and private, and: express demands addressed at the public. A single protest event may include the activity of several separate groups or organizations. Unit of analysis The unit of analysis combines information derived from a series of articles from all the analysed publications dealing with one particular protest event or with a series of activities which can be defined as a single collective public protest event. Sources The methodology was used to collect information from sectoral (agricultural) and local sources. The sources of information are media which focus their reporting on rural affairs and the countryside. Their content was stored by and commissioned from a specialized company.

Fantazje o byciu podawaną z rąk do rąk. Transkobiece marzenia o uprzedmiotowieniu jako mechanizm produkcji płci
This article is an attempt at the analysis of the relationship between trans feminine fantasies of extreme, sadomasochistic objectification in sexual relations, and social means of the production of gender. Using mixed methods (literary ana-lysis, autotheory, and feminist critique) it situates the problem of sadomasochism and trans femininity within the context of patriarchal gender norms, but also within the context of the desire to embody these norms as a form of a gender affirmation. Rejecting trans-exclusionary proposals, it suggests the possibility to understand the trans feminine romance with objectification as an intentional strategy for seizing the means of the production of gender. However, to understand those strategies, one must look beyond frameworks which portray agency as being founded on a com-plete exclusion of submissiveness.
