“…Executive functions (EFs) play a key role in the development of children's social competence [13]. They comprise a series of interconnected and interdependent processes that are responsible for intentional behaviors whose aim is to achieve goals in an articulated and flexible way [14], functioning as an integrated supervisory and control system [15].…”

Executive functions and social cognition (i.e., the mental operations that underlie social interaction) are essential for children’s successful interactions, yet their role in peer social competence among children with and without a migration background is still underexplored. This study investigated the influence of inhibitory control and two domains of social cognition (theory of mind and facial emotion recognition) on children’s peer social competence exploring moderation by children’s migration background. First graders in Italy (n = 321, M age = 6.4 years, 45% girls, and 39% with a migration background) completed standardized tests, while teachers rated students’ peer social competence. The results indicated that immigrant-origin children were perceived as being less socially competent than their non-immigrant counterparts. Among children with a migration background, better inhibitory control and facial emotion recognition skills were linked to increased peer social competence. Following the presentation of these results, we will discuss the implications for both developmental theory and practice.

Subject and purpose of work The aim of the research was to identify and assess the professional problems of women who hold managerial positions. In addition, factors influencing the female style of management were identified and the level of discrimination against women as well as the level of gender equality in Poland and in the European Union was assessed, using the gender equality index. Material and methods Secondary data from the European Institute for Gender Equality were used. The opinion of women was found out on the basis of the survey research. Results Based on the data collected from the European Institute for Gender Equality, it was found that Poland is close to achieving gender equality in management – 43% of all management positions in Poland were held by women. However, the respondents had a different opinion on this subject. Less than 17% of the respondents stated that men and women are treated the same. Conclusions Such a result may be influenced by the existing phenomenon of discrimination, differences in remuneration despite performing the same functions, burdening women with raising children and the existing stereotypes that men perform better in managerial positions, women are less courageous, and men are more available. Therefore, steps should be taken to provide real support for women in the development of their careers, promote gender equality and counteract discrimination.
