“…An additional "now or never" 1 phenomenon (Lifton, 1979;Oleś, 2012) makes young adults more aware of the passing of time, which can lead to the escalation of experimentation and avoiding commitments. Individual education plans can be an important factor for coping with the developmental demands of early adulthood, especially regarding entering the job market and becoming self-reliant (Brzezińska, 2013).…”

Background - Early adulthood is the developmental stage during which, for the first time, an individual can independently choose their own lifestyle. For the future health of a young adult, it is important that they incorporate healthy behaviors from different health dimensions (somatic, mental, social) into their lifestyle. Analyzing the foregoing issue gives rise to a fundamental question: did intensive social changes experienced after Poland’s accession to the European Union lead to changes in different aspects of a healthy lifestyle? Method - The presented study involved 504 people. The research data was collected in two separate measurements in 2003 (n = 284) and 2013 (n = 220). Subjects were asked to complete sets of questionnaires which measured: health behaviors, health beliefs, social influence, intention. Results - Statistical comparison of means tests and regression equations were conducted. Results demonstrate that young adults were similarly engaged in pro-health activities in both 2003 and 2013. A detailed analysis of health lifestyle factors shows that young adults from the 2013 group care more about their diet, physical activity, and more frequently undergo preventive medical health examinations. Moreover, significant changes in healthy lifestyle factors were reported. The most important observation concerned the changes in health beliefs. Beliefs derived from a holistic-functional model of health played a major role in the 2003 group, whereas in the 2013 group beliefs close to the biomedical model of health were more important. Conclusions - Analyses demonstrate changes in detailed healthy lifestyle factors. At the same time, no significant differences in global measures of concern for one’s health were observed. Importantly, results show modifications in healthy lifestyle factors. It is suggested that the observed differences stem from the social change of the last decade.

“…With the help of the expressive function, where we are able to reveal our attitude to reality (make a note on the function of language). Psychologists pay attention to the importance of communication in a child's development, emphasizing that thanks to speech the child is able to explore and control the world, express his or her thoughts, ideas and needs, and this is the basis for more effective ways of acting, effective communication and social functioning (Brzezińska, Appelt, & Ziółkowska, 2015).…”

The article substantiates the importance of nannies’ language for the children’s development, namely the danger of long-term use of the phonetic, morphological and syntactic properties of babysitters' language in the process of communicating with the child. The theoretical positions that are the basis for the analysis of the collected research material are related to the theories of symbolic interactionism, constructivism, and the ecological theory of human development. In the research it is assumed that the child's development is dynamic and occurs as a result of structuring and restructuring the experience gained during interaction. It is confirmed that development takes place in a certain environment, but it is worth remembering that the child is not a passive imitator of the stimuli, but as a result of mutual interaction with the environment. The child begins to form one’s own image of the surrounding world. It has been found that language serves as one of the elements that allow a person to build an idea of the surrounding reality in mind. The article emphasizes the importance of speech and, more broadly, communicative competences for a child's development. The results of a study conducted among mothers of two- to three-year-old children are presented. Considering this stage of the child's development is considered special because of the phase of the child's speech development, as well as the formation of personality. The study presents a diagnostic survey and includes free communication between mother and child. The paper outlines the characteristic properties of the language of nannies. Based on the results of the study, the consequences for the development of long-term use of nanny’s language by adults are shown. The article emphasizes the importance and influence of the communication skills and abilities of babysitters and parents on the child's development and further education, as well as the importance of pedagogical support for effective communication in early childhood.

“…For example, apart from the abovementioned "cluttered nest" [95], in the popular and scientific literature there is also the term "boomerang generation" [96,97] for those who, during their early adulthood, return to their parents after temporary absence and "nestling" [90] to describe the children who decide for various reasons not to leave the family home in which they have been brought up. Those who have avoided the characteristic responsibilities of adulthood have received names with a clearly pejorative and ironic tone like "kidults, twixters, thresholders" [98,99] or "adultescents" [100,101]. It is worth noting that some researchers are critical of this tendency to label in this manner, especially in popular texts and media content.…”

“…Wobec tych, którzy unikają zobowiązań charakterystycznych dla osób dorosłych, ukuto nazwy o zdecydowanie pejoratywnym i ironicznym wydźwięku, np. "dziecinnie dorośli" [98,99] czy "nie całkiem dorośli" [100,101]. Warto przy okazji zaznaczyć, że niektórzy naukowcy krytycznie oceniają tendencje do operowania takimi etykietami, zwłaszcza w opracowaniach popularnonaukowych czy przekazach medialnych.…”
