It is evident that a change is happening, a breakthrough, in perceptions of death; the next episode is being unveiled. After the stages Philippe Aries named death of the tame and then death of the wild, people today are finally experiencing the humanizing of death, which we call sharing death, whose influence is worth deep analysis. Our hypothesis is that today, Ars moriendi, meeting the needs of the dying, may be learned from the so-called death teachers, whose message is growing noticeably in society. This research shows a certain reversal of social roles that are worth noting and accepting. In the past, a priest was a guide and a teacher in the face of dying and death; today, he has the opportunity to learn Ars moriendi from contemporary teachers of dying, to imagine an empty chair standing by a dying person.

<p>KANH III składa się z dwóch skal konformizm–nonkonformizm które przynależą do sfery osobowości oraz skali zachowania heurystyczne–zachowania algorytmiczne, która przynależy do sfery poznawczej. Każda skala diagnozuje 13 właściwości dymensjalnych o charakterze kontinuum. Kwestionariusz składa się z 26 stwierdzeń. Rzetelność narzędzia mierzona metodą test–retest wynosi 0,95. Korelacja między wersjami polską i angielską dla skali K–N = 0,95, zaś dla skali A–H = 0,96. Rzetelność obliczona (N = 4271) przy pomocy alfa Cronbacha dla skali K–N = 0,69, dla skali A–H = 0,65. Normy zostały opracowane w skali stenowej dla grupy wiekowej 15–60 lat i uwzględniają odmienne wyniki dla kobiet i mężczyzn w skali K–N. W skali A–H wyniki zostały opracowane dla obu płci razem. Prezentowane są też wyniki analizy czynnikowej oraz trafności kryterialnej KANH III.</p><p> </p>

The purpose of this article is to review recent literature on twice-exceptional students and consider implications for their education in the context of the trend towards increased inclusive education for students with disabilities. The review focused on teachers’ experiences and perceptions and the school experiences of twice-exceptional students. Fifteen articles were reviewed, published between 2000 and 2020, selected according to a systematic protocol from two widely used online databases. Findings indicated that the implications that need to be considered were the importance of teacher preparation, the need for a continuum of special education interventions, the need for collaboration with parents and specialists, and teachers needing to focus on developing strengths as much as remediating difficulties. It was concluded that twice-exceptional students can be taught effectively in inclusive education settings as long as they are able to access appropriate strategies and programs from the fields of special education and gifted education.

The aim of this study was to examine gifted British and Polish college students’ ( N = 30) retrospective perceptions of their school environments in relation to talent development using a semi-structured, in-depth interview. Qualitative analyses revealed how school and teachers influenced gifted students’ talent development. Findings indicate that, according to both the British and the Polish students, teachers play an extremely important role in their talent development. The environment in English schools was depicted as considerably more facilitative than the Polish school environment, although both have their advantages and disadvantages. Although this research study does not claim universal representation, the findings may be of significance to school, educational, and psychological practices on preventive, teaching, and interpersonal levels.

This study employs a person-oriented approach to examine the heterogeneity of samples of primary school students ( N = 2,333; 56.5% girls) and secondary school students ( N = 2,329; 62.9% girls) in terms of levels of subjective well-being (SWB) in five domains: family, friends, school experience, body, and the local area. The study was conducted in Poland during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The latent profile analysis revealed five profiles among primary school students and six profiles among secondary school students. The profiles identified among primary school students had their counterparts among secondary school students and included “highly satisfied,” “moderately satisfied,” “highly dissatisfied,” “satisfied with their family life and local area and dissatisfied with their friends,” and “satisfied with their family life and friends and dissatisfied with their local area” profiles. In both samples, the profile with high levels of satisfaction in all domains was the most numerous. Moreover, in secondary school students, we identified the sixth profile, which was highly satisfied with their friends and dissatisfied in other domains. We also noted that gender, age, type of school and positive relationships with others predicted the latent profile membership. The results of this study indicate the need to utilize the person-oriented approach to gain insight into various patterns of children’s SWB. Moreover, the study provides some practical recommendations for preparing tailored interventions aimed at improving children’s SWB.
