Radzenie sobie z tremą a zdrowie młodzieży uzdolnionej muzycznie
No full textThe aim of the study is to learn the psychological mechanisms leading to health in a group of
musically gifted young people, whose learning is linked to many situations which involve the
musician’s psychophysical potential, leading to the experience of a specific type of stress - stage
fright.
In the literature, there is a lot of information indicating the healthy role of music and
music activity, which is reflected both in the somatic and psychic state of the individual
(Klimas-Kuchtowa, 2012, Sacher 2007, Wrona-Polański, Polańska and Polański, 2012). On the
other hand, empirical reports demonstrate that musicians already experience health problems at
the stage of music education (Brandfonbrener, 2009; Spencer and Śmieszchalska, 2013), which
become more serious each year of musical practice (Ramella, Fonte and Converti, 2014).Music
education imposes many requirements that engage the student's full potential - his physical and
mental capabilities (Gluska, 2010, Śmieszchalska, 2015). The system of music education is
recognized to be highly stressful due to the psychophysical requirements that must be met by
the learner (Jankowski, 2001, Sternbach 1995, for Kenny et al. 2004), and its character is related
to many situations in which a teenage musician experiences stage fright, also known as
performance anxiety (including hearings, end-of-term examinations, contests, performances,
music projects).
Understanding stage fright in terms of the biomedical model - as a phenomenon that
affects the musician’s health and functioning only adversely is reductionistic. Public
performance (including preparation and retrospection) is an element of young learners’ daily
activity - for some of them it is a situation in which they can present their skills and which leads
to their artistic and personal development (Raducanu, 2010, Wrona-Polańska, 2004, 2008;
2012; 2014). For this reason, in the discourse, stage fright and its consequences have been
discussed, placing health, not a disease, at the centre of attention. In the work, the Wrona-
Polańska’s (2004, 2008, 2014, 2016) systematic understanding of fright stage has been adopted.
According to which, it is a specific type of stress related to public performance (understood as
a stressful situation in which there is a relationship between the performer and the situation of
the performance - between the individual's abilities and the requirements of the situation), so it
can be favourable to health.
The theoretical basis of the research was the Functional Health Model developed by
Helena Wrona-Polańska (2003), in which health is a function of creative coping with stress,
dependent on subjective resources, which are key psychological mechanisms conducive to
health (Wrona-Polanska, 2003). Resources lead to health through three paths - the competence
path (through effective coping) and the emotional path (through positive emotions), which
balance the stress path, threatening health.
The study involved 132 students of state music school (2nd level). In accordance with
the Functional Health Model, in order to determine the level of health, a method of standardized
interview, based on Wrona-Polanska's Stressful Events Questionnaire (2003) and prepared for
the purposes of this work, as well as the questionnaire methods to measure anxiety level (which
is an indicator of stage fright level), styles of coping with stress and resources have been used.
The results have confirmed the Functional Health Model, indicating that the health of
talented young musicians is determined by the subjective resources that influence health
directly and indirectly (through experiencing the optimal level of stage fright and counteracting
stage fright management by focusing on emotions that threatens health).
The results obtained may be a guideline of how to create the health of talented
musicians. Having demonstrated the vital role of resources to the health of the students in
question, the importance of taking the systemic measures aimed at promoting a healthy family
and school, creating conditions conducive to education, and developing individual ways of
promoting health have been pointed out

Is students’ teamwork a dreamwork? A new DCE-based multidimensional approach to preferences towards group work
No full textThe data refer to the study on the preferences of lower secondary school students in Poland for different modes of learning and school subjects. It employs a discrete choice experiment to describe student preferences in light of the time devoted to studying. The study shows significant heterogeneity of student tastes for different study modes. Most students prefer studying in a group of peers, but there are important differences across students at different achievement levels and subjects. This study demonstrates how preferences toward learning can be properly measured using discrete choice experiments.Data related to publication: Gajderowicz, T., Jakubowski, M., Wrona, S. et al.

The Benefits of Being Economics Professor A (and not Z)
No full textAlphabetic name ordering on multi-authored academic papers, which is the convention in the economics discipline and various other disciplines, is to the advantage of people whose last name initials are placed early in the alphabet. As it turns out, Professor A, who has been a first author more often than Professor Z, will have published more articles and experienced afaster growth rate over the course of her career as a result of reputation and visibility. Moreover, authors know that name ordering matters and indeed take ordering seriously: Several characteristics of an author group composition determine the decision to deviate from the default alphabetic name order to a significant extent.performance measurement, incentives, economists, name ordering
Comparison of Multi-Agent Platform Usability for Industrial-Grade Applications
No full textModern systems often employ decentralised and distributed approaches. This can be attributed, among others, to the increasing complexity of system processes, which go beyond the capabilities of singular components. Additionally, with the growth in demand for system automation and high-level coordination, solutions belonging to the decentralised Artificial Intelligence and collaborative decision-making are often applied. It can be observed that these concerns fall within the domain of multi-agent systems. However, even though MAS concepts emerged more than 40 years ago, despite their obvious advantages and continuous efforts of the scientific community, agents remain rarely used in industrial-grade applications. In this context, the goal of this contribution is to analyse the reasons for the lack of adoption of agent solutions in the real world. During the analysis, all pertinent aspects of the modern software development life cycle are examined and compared to what is currently available in the agent system domain. Specifically, the study focuses on identifying gaps that are often overlooked when it comes to scientific applications of MAS, but are critical in terms of potential for large-scale system development in practice

Przeprowadzki z miast do wsi — spotkanie dwóch kultur i co z niego wynika dla lokalnych społeczności
No full textThe aim of the article is to investigate the cultural diversity of rural communities in the Świętokrzyskie voivodeship, which are experiencing the influx of new residents coming from cities: suburbanites and members of the new settlers movement. On the basis of the individual and family in-depth interviews with the new and established residents, as well as the leaders of social activity in three villages (two of which are facing suburbanization, and two are destination for the new settlers), four cultural types were distinguished. They are based on the interviewees’ rural or urban origin and their attitudes toward the heritage of the folk culture. Two types are related to the category of immigrants:1) suburban‑consumer — represented primarily by the middle class residents of suburbia, still maintaining a strong professional and educational links with the metropolises, focused on achieving success in the market economy;2) alternative — whose representatives are primarily the new settlers, tied with countercultural groups, characterised by the critical attitude toward the modern capitalist order and materialistic way of life, fascinated by the traditional folk art, ecology, communitarianism. The other cultural types are associated with the native residents:3) traditional — continuing the old peasant way of life, typical for the people attached to traditional farming and Christian values, poorly integrated with the contemporary labour and trade market;4) modernist‑materialistic — represented by the fraction of the rural population abandoning, or even rejecting the traditional peasant economy and the values associated with it, oriented towards prosperity, material development and upward mobility in the economic hierarchy.
Celem artykułu jest zbadanie zróżnicowania kulturowego społeczności wiejskich województwa świętokrzyskiego, które doświadczają napływu nowych mieszkańców pochodzących z miast: suburbanistów i członków nowego ruchu osadniczego. Na podstawie indywidualnych i rodzinnych wywiadów pogłębionych z nowymi i osiadłymi mieszkańcami, a także liderami aktywności społecznej w trzech wsiach (z których dwie są zagrożone suburbanizacją, a dwie są miejscem docelowym dla nowych osadników), wyróżniono cztery typy kulturowe. Opierają się one na wiejskim lub miejskim pochodzeniu respondentów i ich stosunku do dziedzictwa kultury ludowej. Dwa typy związane są z kategorią imigrantów:1) podmiejski‑konsumpcyjny — reprezentowany przede wszystkim przez klasę średnią mieszkańców przedmieść, utrzymujący nadal silne związki zawodowe i edukacyjne z metropoliami, nastawiony na osiągnięcie sukcesu w gospodarce rynkowej;2) alternatywny — którego przedstawicielami są przede wszystkim nowi osadnicy, związani z grupami kontrkulturowymi, charakteryzujący się krytycznym nastawieniem do nowoczesnego porządku kapitalistycznego i materialistycznego sposobu życia, zafascynowani tradycyjną sztuką ludową, ekologią, komunitaryzmem. Pozostałe typy kulturowe kojarzone są z tubylczymi mieszkańcami:3) tradycyjny — kontynuujący dawny, chłopski sposób życia, typowy dla ludzi przywiązanych do tradycyjnego rolnictwa i wartości chrześcijańskich, słabo zintegrowany ze współczesnym rynkiem pracy i handlu; 4) modernistyczno‑materialistyczny — reprezentowany przez część ludności wiejskiej porzucającą lub wręcz odrzucającą tradycyjną gospodarkę chłopską i związane z nią wartości, nastawioną na dobrobyt, rozwój materialny i awans społeczny
Kompetencja interkulturowa nauczycieli pracujących z dziećmi z doświadczeniem migracji: wnioski z projektu „INNA SZKOŁA”
No full textThe article discusses the competencies of teachers working with migrant students, based on research from the Lesser Poland model of support for teachers working with students with a migrant background "DIFFERENT SCHOOL" (INNA SZKOŁA) project in 2021. Before and after the training course, teachers assessed their skills in surveys, focusing on self-assessment of intercultural competence, preparation for working with migrant-experienced students, and awareness of these students\u27 needs. The resultsindicate an increase in teacher awareness post-course, especially in aspects important for multicultural classes, such as appreciating children\u27s native languages. Although teachers initially doubted their preparation and the need for development, participation in the project reduced these concerns and increased knowledge about the specific needs of migrant children.Artykuł omawia kompetencje nauczycieli pracujących z uczniami migrantami (na podstawie badań realizowanych w ramach projektu Małopolski model wsparcia nauczycieli pracujących z uczniami z doświadczeniem migracji „INNA SZKOŁA” 2021). Przed kursem szkoleniowym i po jego ukończeniu nauczyciele oceniali swoje umiejętności w ankietach, skupiając się na samoocenie kompetencji interkulturowej, przygotowaniu do pracy z uczniami z doświadczeniem migracji i rozwijaniu świadomości potrzeb tych uczniów. Choć nauczyciele początkowo wątpili w swoje przygotowanie i sens rozwoju w tym aspekcie, udział w projekcie zmniejszył te obawy i wzbogacił ich wiedzę o specyficznych potrzebach dzieci-migrantów
Identifying Tractable Quantified Temporal Constraints Within Ord-Horn
No full textThe constraint satisfaction problem, parameterized by a relational structure, provides a general framework for expressing computational decision problems. Already the restriction to the class of all finite structures forms an interesting microcosm on its own, but to express decision problems in temporal reasoning one has to take a step beyond the finite-domain realm. An important class of templates used in this context are temporal structures, i.e., structures over ℚ whose relations are first-order definable using the usual countable dense linear order without endpoints.
In the standard setting, which allows only existential quantification over input variables, the complexity of finite and temporal constraints has been fully classified. In the quantified setting, i.e., when one also allows universal quantifiers, there is only a handful of partial classification results and many concrete cases of unknown complexity. This paper presents a significant progress towards understanding the complexity of the quantified constraint satisfaction problem for temporal structures. We provide a complexity dichotomy for quantified constraints over the Ord-Horn fragment, which played an important role in understanding the complexity of constraints both over temporal structures and in Allen’s interval algebra. We show that all problems under consideration are in P or coNP-hard. In particular, we determine the complexity of the quantified constraint satisfaction problem for (ℚ;x = y⇒ x ≥ z), hereby settling a question open for more than ten years
