Adaptation resources of the adolescents at risk of social exclusion

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie zasobów adaptacyjnych młodzieży zagrożonej wykluczeniem społecznym. Skoncentrowano się na klasyfikacji zasobów S. E. Hobfolla. Przebadano 50-osobową grupę podopiecznych świetlicy środowiskowej w Bytomiu. Wyniki przeprowadzonych badań wskazały, że badana grupa posiada bardzo nieliczne zasoby sprzyjające pozytywnej adaptacji.The aim of the article is to present the adaptation resources of youth people at risk of social exclusion. The focus was on the classification of S. Hobble’s resources. 50 people in the community day care center in Bytom were examined. The results of the research indicated that the research group has very few resources for positive adaptation

Fine Structures of the Normal Mucosa in Developing Rat Middle Ear

Forty-two fetal and 90 developing young rats were studied electron microscopically to obtain a normal cellular distribution pattern of middle ear mucosa. The results showed that while ciliated columnar or cuboidal cells interspersed with secretory cells were predominantly distributed around the tympanic orifice and transitional zone, cuboidal or squamous nonciliated cells without secretory granules were numerous in the remaining part of the bulla. Development of ciliated cells started at the 17th or 18th fetal day, paralleling that of secretory cells. The number of ciliated and secretory cells increased rapidly after birth. Glands were not found in the osseous tube, tympanic orifice, or other portions of the middle ear cavity in fetal, newborn, or suckling rats, while they are abundant in the cartilaginous portion of the tube. The findings of this study indicate that both secretory and ciliated cells are normal components of middle ear mucosa although these cells are restricted to the tympanic orifice and transitional zone, and that the mucociliary defense system starts to develop during the fetal stage.</jats:p

Postural defects correction in the process of physical education and sport

Postural defects are the real blight of the contemporary world. The scientific research has shown that the more inactive and sedentary lifestyle one leads, the faster their muscular system becomes dysfunctional. It also loses the ability of active spinal stabilization, which results in postural defects, a serious 21st century problem among young generation. Postural defects are believed to be caused by the lack of physical activity. Undoubtedly, physical education and sport play an important role in prevention and correction of poor posture as in this way particular body systems are affected, which consequently can lead to the elimination of postural defects or at least to their reduction. The objective of the article is to justify the need for corrective exercise during physical education classes as well as to show the role of sport and physical activity in maintaining good body posture and in correcting the existing defects
