Sport presents itself as a social configuration that enhances social inclusion by promoting tolerance, respect for others, cooperation, loyalty and friendship, and values associated with fair play, the most important ethical principles of sport. However, intolerance and exclusion can also be expressed in sport, certainly even more so the bigger the social inequalities and the ethnic, religious, gender, disability, and sexual orientation prejudices are in society. The processes of social exclusion, integration, and inclusion are research areas in the social sciences with consolidated knowledge, namely in the study of the problems of poverty, social inequalities, racial and ethnic discrimination, disability, and education. However, it is necessary to discuss the existing theoretical approaches and conceptions seen as explanatory principles of the reality of these fields of analysis, look at how they can frame the reality on the sports field, and then confirm them through empirical research in order to produce knowledge based on the reality of social facts. Despite the broad consensus on the potential of sport in promoting social inclusion, in this paper I stress that this potential can only become real if the orientation of sport includes strategies aimed at achieving these goals. I intend to show how the –social issue‖ in the field of sports has gained relevance in the institutional context, and thereby a new field of research for the social science of sport has been opened and needs to be deepened.

The study was carried out based on a diagnostic survey with and open - ended questionnaire. Results: The subjects of the study accept values connected with positive traits of charac ter (34 p ositive answers) and positive personal interactions (33 positive answers). Further, there are philosophical (mentioned 7 times), fitness (5 positive answers), health, and sport aspects (3 times) of karate. The less acceptable values refer to the aesthetic aspects of karate and to the cultural ones, as well as to the employment opportunities for employment. Discussion: The older seniors karate fighters prefer the positive characteristics such as relaxation of mind, courage, consciousness, will power, compo sure and consistence in action. Almost equally, they accept positive personal interactions, especially integrity, truthfulness. Here, the participants noted negative interactions in their environment. As an art, karate contains aesthetic aspects and also provides opportunity for learning about the culture of the Far Eats. Karate may also be a way of making a living. According to the older seniors karate fighters, karate is their way of life, part of their personality and the values carried by karate are p resent in many aspects of their lives.

Society's lifestyles, influenced by the evolving preferences of values of subsequent generations, are subject to gradual changes. This variation in lifestyles requires a reflection on the patterns of physical culture and values amongst the youth, adults and the elderly. Patterns of physical culture shaped in the European tradition are also present in the contemporary lifestyles of all generations. People's choices concerning physical culture depend on the type and level of their physical activity, attitudes towards of the body, age, gender and education. In the classic physical types distinguished by Polish sociologists we can identify positive traits conducive to human development, traits inducing controversial attitude, and clearly negative ones that are health-threatening. In conclusion the paper puts forward a question about the direction of the development of physical culture patterns in future and the level of recognition of particular values by different generations. Some of the contemporary lifestyles arouse concerns of educators.

Purpose. The aim of this study was to analyse Spanish women basketball players' perception of their coaches in order to discover whether this perception is different from those in other sports and which character traits are the most appreciated in the sport of basketball. Methods. We administered a questionnaire survey in December 2010 to a total of 65 Spanish national division basketball players, where they were asked to evaluate their coaches with a set of 10 adjectives, rating them on a Likert seven-point scale with 1 being the least favourable and 7 the most favourable. Results. The results find that the players have a generally positive opinion of their coaches' personal qualities, although there were some small differences in the evaluation of what might be called "professional" qualities, which were not as high. Traits such as honesty (6.01), friendliness (5.97) or self-confidence (5.43) had higher values than imagination (4.3), dynamism (4.9), intelligence (5.1) and other attributes which could relate more to technical aspects or methods of training. With regard to the totality of the scale, the mean was found to be 5.22, with the maximum value being 6.01 for honesty and the lowest for imagination at 4.3. None of the analysed adjectives received a negative rating by the players. Conclusions. This study finds that women basketball players have an overall good perception of their coaches, as based on the analysed sample. These results are very similar to previous findings in other sports. In addition, they rate "personal" features with a higher score than traits that could be considered "professional" and, therefore, be an opinion of job performance.

Introduction: Fair Play behaviours are moral and social behaviours that can be acquire from students throughout PE class. The main aim of this study was to translate and validate into Albanian language the questionnaire that measures and evaluate pro-social and antisocial behaviours in PE class. Material and methods: The process of validity was based in three steps: 1) Translation and Back Translation - the questionnaire was translated from experts of the field who were proficient in English language, and the process of back translation was done from experts of Albanian and English language. 2) Factor Analysis - 597 middle school students from Tirana, Albania, were involved, from which a simple size of 280 students (mean age=13.22±1.22 yr) was used to perform the EFA, and reliability, reporting the CA coefficient. For the CFA a sample size of 317 students (mean age=14.32±7.3 yr) was used. 3) Test-Retest Validity- the questionnaire was submitted to the same students as EFA in two times with an interval of 3 weeks between them. Results: Regarding Factor Analysis the KMO> than 0.5 and Bartlett's Test < 0.01 (KMO-0.820, χ2=1153.330; p=0.000), have indicated that the EFA could be performed. EFA has revealed that there were four factors, two for pro-social and two for antisocial. The CA coefficient for the four factors was: respect conventions (α=0.683), respect towards teammates (α=0.616), cheating (α=0.765) and gamesmanship (α=0.742). The CFA has indicated a good model fit (χ2=196.68, df=84, p=0.000, RMSEA = 0.065, SRMR = 0.056 and CFI=0.92). Regarding test-retest validity there were no significant differences between test and retest measures, when test (M=44.26±5.13) and retest (M=44.09±5.76) conditions; t(279)=0.52 (p=0.600). Conclusions: According to the results of our study, the questionnaire has shown reliability on measuring pro-social and antisocial behaviours in PE class. Therefore, the questionnaire can be used as an effective tool to help Albanian PE teachers and sports educators to understand the social and educational values dealing with sport in Albanian schools.

Nowadays, research on the body and the values it embodies is considered fundamental in the research field of sport studies. There is a correlation between the choice of values preferred by youth and changes taking place in contemporary society. The postmodern society is a society in which body values prevail over all other ones; the type of body values dominant in a capitalist society are mostly those which are connected to the hedonistic, esthetic and emotional dimension of the body itself.Starting from this background, this study aims to draw the hierarchy of body values, focusing on sport sciences students at Italian, Latvian and Romanian universities, who will be future educators and professionals of body care and well-being in the European society, in order to understand their preferences and the possible cultural differences that can emerge from the three societies.To carry out the research, a randomized sample of 300 subjects - female and male students (100 per country) - attending first-, second- and third-year sport sciences courses at the University of Rome "Foro Italico", the Latvian Academy of Sport Education in Riga, and Babes-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca were selected.The students' values hierarchy was obtained through a Likert-scale-based questionnaire adapted and translated into Italian, Latvian and Romanian. The aim of the questionnaire was to detect the level of agreeability or disagreeability shown by each student when presented with words regarding 10 main body values models: biological body; ecological body; instrumental body; dynamic/sporting body, emotional/social body; ethical body; esthetical body; religious body; intellectual body; pleasure body.The data obtained were statistically processed and compared. The results showed that the hierarchy of body values in young students of sports sciences is broadly in line with those of postmodern society and education, and that there are differences in the perception of values among students due to cultural differences and the traditions of the societies in which they live. The research also highlighted the need to develop a more effective moral education, one that focuses on ethics, in the curricula of the three universities studied.

Human dignity is composing the main theme for the interaction with mentally ill people, which requires certain competence and a certain sensitivity. The action in the psychiatric daily routine in dealing with mentally ill people is always an enforcement and must always remain questionable. Child and adolescent psychiatry is arranged in between pedagogical responsibility and psychopathological understanding. Here the emotional structure of the young man has not been sufficiently constituted yet. For this reason the conception of human being by people working in psychiatric departments has to be affected by the valuable singularity of each other. Human dignity is jeoparding in psychiatry frequently by compulsory measures and stigma. Therefore it is more important that action in psychiatry is taking place among social dignity. In the consorting with mentally ill people, people working in the field of psychiatry have the obligation to support them actively in the protection of their identity. This obligation has an indispensable, existential significance in psychiatry.

Ментальные истоки советского тоталитаризма формировались с момента жестокого военного конфликта в период установления советского режима в Украине. Затяжное военное противостояние нескольких военно-политических сил сопровождалось насилием, погромами, беззакониями над мирными жителями, массовые страдания обесценили человеческую жизнь, усилили разочарование общества, физические и психологические травмы отразились на последующих практиках повседневной жизни, ценностных ориентациях общества. Ценности выживания и самосохранения стали доминирующими в условиях перманентного насилия над социумом. Главной чертой тоталитарного менталитета стал страх, который укрепил позицию невмешательства и пассивности, что на протяжении 1920 – 1930-х гг. облегчило советским органам возможность применять практику насилия над отдельными классами, группами общества (реквизиции имущества буржуазии, издевательства над интеллигенцией, духовенством и т.д.). Резкая инверсия ценностных ориентиров, мировоззренческих и моральных основ нации, умноженная на силовые практики советской политики, обусловили эрозию ценностей, исказили традиционные модели поведения социума, вызвали глубокие травмы массового сознания.

Mental origins of Soviet totalitarianism were formed after the brutal military conflict during the establishment of the Soviet regime in Ukraine. Protracted military confrontation of several military and political forces exposed civilians to violence and lawlessness. Mass sufferring devalued a human life and intensified social disappointment. Physical and psychological injuries affected daily life and values of the society. The values of survival and self-preservation became dominant under conditions of permanent violence against society. The main characteristic of the totalitarian mentality was the fear, which consolidated the position of non-interference and passivity. During the 1920s and 1930s it facilitated Soviet authorities to use violence against some classes and groups of the society (requisition of bourgeoisie property, abuse of intellectuals, clergy, etc.). Sharp inversion of values, philosophical and moral foundations of the nation, multiplied by the forcible practices of the Soviet policy, resulted in the erosion of values, distorted traditional behavioral patterns of the society and caused deep injuries of mass consciousness.

Druga połowa dwudziestego wieku zaznaczyła się poważną dyskusją nad zasadami etycznego postępowania w badaniach naukowych oraz w postawie wobec osób chorujących. Pozostawało to w związku z konstrukcją oraz użyciem bomby atomowej i doświadczeniami medycyny nazistowskiej. Początkowo dyskusję zdominowały prawa człowieka, a pod koniec wieku - naczelna wartość życia. Wprowadzono nowy termin - „bioetyka”. W medycynie szczególną wagę przywiązywano do rzetelnego informowania pacjentów o potencjalnych korzyściach i ryzyku związanym z leczeniem, zwłaszcza eksperymentalnym, oraz do wyrażenia zgody na proponowane procedury. Zwraca się uwagę, że istotą zgody jest porozumienie i że jej osiągnięcie ma charakter procesu. Oznacza to między innymi możliwość wycofania zgody w każdym momencie udziału w procedurze. Spośród wielu nierozwiązywalnych problemów bioetyki omówione zostaną dwa związane z rozumieniem zgody oraz konsekwencjami znaczenia, jakiego nabrały w paradygmacie naukowości metody obiektywizujące ocenę. Ocena etycznego aspektu postępowania lekarskiego została powierzona komisjom etycznym. Zwrócono uwagę na niebezpieczną formalizację postępowania przed komisjami.

Introduction. Patient death is an unavoidable element in the work of nurses. It is associated with experiencing various emotions which affects their value system and personal life. The aim. To examine the attitudes of nurses towards dying patients, to present their emotions, anxiety and experiences related to patients' deaths and to assess the impact on the personal life of the respondents. Methods and research material. The results of own research based on the questionnaire as well as the standardized Mini-COPE tool. Results. Gender, marital status and education do not differentiate the attitudes of nurses towards the dying and death of the patient. On the other hand, age and seniority turned out to be a factor that significantly differentiated the change in the hierarchy of values after the patient's death and had a positive effect on the level of stress. Conclusions. Summing up this work, it should be noted that the contact of nurses with dying patients exposes them to stress, negative emotions and high psychological burden. Their hierarchy of values changed after the patient's death. The ability to sympathize and proper preparation of nurses has a great impact on ensuring the reduction of suffering and the patient's dying.

Wstęp. Śmierć pacjentów jest nieuniknionym elementem w pracy pielęgniarek. Wiąże się z przeżywaniem różnorodnych emocji co wpływa na ich system wartości i życie osobiste. Cel. Celem niniejszej pracy było badanie postaw pielęgniarek wobec pacjentów umierających, przedstawienie ich emocji, lęku i przeżyć związanych ze śmiercią pacjentów oraz ocena wpływu na życie osobiste badanych. Metody i materiał. Wyniki badań własnych omówione są na podstawie ankiety przeprowadzonej w grupie 100 pielęgniarek oraz narzędzia wystandaryzowanego Mini-COPE. Wyniki. Stan cywilny i wykształcenie nie różnicują postaw pielęgniarek wobec umierania i śmierci pacjenta. Natomiast wiek oraz staż pracy okazał się czynnikiem istotnie różnicującym zmianę hierarchii wartości po śmierci pacjenta i wpływał dodatnio na poziom stresu. Wnioski. Kontakt pielęgniarek z pacjentami umierającymi naraża na stres, negatywne emocje, duże obciążenie psychiczne. Zdolność współczucia, odpowiednie przygotowanie pielęgniarek ma duży wpływ na zapewnienie zmniejszenia cierpienia i godnego umierania pacjenta.

Nightingale /1820-1910/ in the ethos of nurses in the aspect of history. The concept of “ethos” means morality as well as these signifi cant conducts, being the affi rmation of specifi c values distinguishing professional group of nurses. The thought of this thesis focuses on the description of nurses professions ethos in historical aspect, from the times of Hippocrates until 1945 AD. This ethos in historical aspect can also be developed by means of personal standards of moral and nurses authorities and fi rst of all by the principles of Hippocratic ethics, Hippocrates’ ethos and Christian ethics/love of God and man, the charity/ and deontological codes referring to a given specialization of nurses profession. Ethical assumptions of Hippocrates, due to their conformity with natural law, high estimation of life since conception till natural death, respect towards the sick and nurses authorities, the secret of treating, faithfulness to the principle “Primum non nocere”, “Salus aegroti suprema lex esto”, bringing relief in suff ering and oath directed to gods, have humanistic, general character and that is why they were adopted by ethos of nurses.

Celem pracy jest udowodnienie tezy, zakładającej aktualność etosu hipokratesowgo, etyki chrześcijańskiej i wzorców osobowych w etosie pielęgniarek analizowanym w aspekcie historycznym. Pojęcie „etos” oznacza określoną moralność, jak i te znamienne postawy, będące afi rmacją określonych wartości charakteryzujących grupę zawodową pielęgniarek. Idea tej pracy koncentruje się na omawianiu etosu pielęgniarek w aspekcie historycznym od czasów Hipokratesa /460-377 p.n.e./ do 1945 roku. Etos ten może być również kształtowany przez wzorce osobowe autorytetów moralnych i pielęgniarek, ale przede wszystkim przez zasady etyki medycznej Hipokratesa, etos hipokratesowy, etykę chrześcijańską/ miłość Boga i bliźniego, cnota miłosierdzia/ i kodeksy deontologiczne adekwatne do danej specjalizacji zawodów pielęgniarek. Założenia etyczne Hipokratesa ze względu na zgodność z prawem naturalnym, wysoką ocenę wartości życia od poczęcia do śmierci naturalnej, szacunek do chorego i autorytetów pielęgniarek, tajemnicę leczenia, wierność zasadom „Przede wszystkim nie szkodzić”, „Zdrowie chorego najwyższym prawem”, niesienie ulgi w cierpieniu i przysięgę skierowaną do bogów, mają wymiar humanistyczny, powszechny i dlatego zostały one przejmowane przez kształtujący się etos pielęgniarek.
