Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present one of the most characteristic features of contemporary times--transculturality--and closely related processes such as transculturation, cultural transmission, and their consequences. These culture-forming processes (currently unfolding in two parallel spaces: the real world and cyberspace) strongly influence the formation of contemporary human personality and identity. They demand continuous adaptation to rapidly changing cultural and psychosocial realities, which take into account transnational personal models and patterns of social interaction. Relying on a review of Polish and international scholarly literature, as well as on the historical context of these processes and their present scope and essence, the article analyzes their impact on the psychosocial functioning of contemporary individuals. It also outlines the implications for modern pedagogy arising from the heterogeneous identities of 21st-century humans--the subjects of diagnostic, care, assistance, and educational activities--as well as from transcultural modernity, multi-level and highly dynamic transculturation, and the equally dynamic transfer of cultural norms and values.
