Inflacja idei we współczesnej nauce
Inflation of ideas in the contemporary science

Summary/Abstract: The article discusses phenomena in the world and Polish psychology which could boost Diederik A. Stapel and other researchers as well (including Polish ones) to commit frauds. They include: 1) prevalence and acceptance of frauds in some circles of scientific community; 2) perceiving psychology not as a real science and therefore acceptance of manipulation of data and free interpretations; 3) enormous growth of published research which makes it impossible to become familiar with the full scope of any domain and which makes hard to judge the quality of the research; 4) bad condition and historical burden of Polish science.
