Hunting for a Job
A model of individual difference in foraging is used to predict the speed with which unemployed Poles gain employment. Foraging theory assumes an evolved computational mechanism that produces a trade-off between search costs, the amount of preparation individuals foresee as required to achieve an outcome, and whether they deem the outcome worth pursuing. We argue that the expression of this mechanism varies over individuals (as well as situations…
Individual Differences in Adaptation to Social Change
There are many ways to describe a social transformation of the magnitude that took place in Poland in last decade of the twentieth century. Among the most important is the sudden increase in the number and variety of options available in most domains of life, from education and careers to consumer goods and services. We analyze two general strategies people use to make choices or set goals in these domains. In one, called an interval strategy, in…
Beliefs about birth rank and their reflection in reality
Beliefs about birth rank reflect what the society regards as social reality, and they may also influence that reality. Three studies found that people believe those with different birth ranks differ in their personalities, that higher birth ranks are likely to attain higher occupational prestige, and that the personality characteristics attributed to the various birth ranks favor the actual attainment of higher occupational prestige. In one examp…

In Study 1, authoritarianism was related to three measures of collectivism but unrelated to three measures of individualism in a U.S. sample ( N = 382). Study 2 used Triandis's horizontal-vertical individual…
