Taikant mokslinės ir metodinės literatūros analizės metodą atskleista: švietimas, kaip neįgaliųjų studijavimo kontekstas, ir studijos aukštojoje mokykloje, kaip karjeros prieiga. Teorinė analizė įgalino pateikti švietimą kaip daugiafunkcį veiksnį, nuo kurio priklauso žmogaus ugdymasis, socialinis dalyvavimas, gyvenimo darna. Karjera, taikant teorinę analizę, šiuolaikiniu požiūriu pristatoma kaip pasirinkta veikla, kuri gali būti visuomeniškai ar individualiai reikšminga, išreikšta per socialinį žmogaus dalyvavimą. Taikant literatūros ir dokumentų analizės metodus istoriniu ir geografiniu aspektais ištirta Lietuvos aukštosiose mokyklose studijuojančių neįgaliųjų situacija, atskleidusi, kad daugiausia studijuojančių neįgaliųjų turi judėjimo negalę. Taigi atliktas kiekybinis tyrimas, kuriame dalyvavo judėjimo negalę turintys žmonės – patyrusieji stuburo traumą. Atlikus kiekybinį tyrimą ištirtos neįgaliųjų studijavimo, užsiėmimo ir laisvalaikio leidimo tendencijos. Identifikuoti statistiškai reikšmingi ryšiai tarp sociodemografinių respondentų duomenų ir ugdymosi bei laiko leidimo kaip svarbių socialiniam dalyvavimo ir karjeros sričių.

Until the 2015 elections, youth policy in Poland was treated as a separate domain. There is no uniform legal basis concerned with the matters of young people. Youth rights are dealt with in several articles of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland as well as a number of Acts: on Public Administration Branches, on the Education System, on Higher Education, on Employment Promotion and Labour Market Institutions, on NFZ General Health Insurance, on Combating Domestic Violence, on Social Employment, on Public Benefit Organisations and Voluntary Service, along with the Labour Code and certain government regulations. The first consistent document concerned with youth issues was the National strategy for young people for 2003–2014, adopted in 2003. Thereafter, the matters of youth policy were discussed in the report entitled Youth 2011, the document Poland 2030 – Third Wave of Modernity, the Long-Term National Development Strategy, and the Government Program for Social Activity of Youth for the years 2015–2016. Following the 2015 parliamentary elections, youth issues were given a lower priority. In the election manifesto of PIS (Law and Justice party), much attention was devoted to family policy, with youth policy being regarded as part thereof. Consequently, on 13 February 2018, the Family, Senior and Social Policy Committee of the Senate of the Republic of Poland adopted a Resolution on “Integrated youth policy”, presenting it as one of the areas of family policy.

The emotions impact every single process in an individual’s life. An analysis of the scientific works selected by a Google search based on the terms ‘emotions, Vygostky, Leontiev’ shows that the complexity of the topic is multiplied by the complexity, mixture and fragmentary nature of the approaches applied to the investigation of the emotions. The aim of this work is to revisit the works of Vygotsky and Leontiev relating to the emotions underpinning the identification of notions, features and functions of the emotions. A novel research methodology, the development of the system of external and internal perspectives, was implemented. The investigation into the emotions was based on the theories of Vygotsky and Leontiev: activity theory, law of development, psychological system, word meaning, concept formation, and the unity of language. The theoretical analysis resulted in the definition of notions, features and functions of the emotions. The limitations of the research were identified. Further research directions are proposed.
