Patryk Wawrzyński

Dr. Patryk Wawrzyński is a researcher at the University of Szczecin's Institute of Political and Security Studies, specializing in emotional communication and political behavior analysis. His work bridges political science, psychology, and neuroscience, with particular focus on how emotional narratives influence public opinion and policy acceptance.

Research interests center on:

• Political communication: Analyzing emotion-based strategies in populism and policy discourse
• Behavioral coherence: Studying body language and verbal/nonverbal alignment in credibility assessment
• Remembrance policy: Examining historical narratives in post-authoritarian transitions

His interdisciplinary approach incorporates neuroimaging (fMRI) and computational analysis of emotional responses.

Recent publications (2015-2023) show strong thematic consistency in political psychology, with evolving methodological sophistication. Key trends include:

• Experimental studies on emotion-driven political messaging
• Comparative analysis of remembrance policies in transitional societies
• Integration of behavioral data and neuroscience in credibility research

Dr. Wawrzyński leads international collaborations across Europe, Americas, and Africa, and applies his research through a communication training company. He currently advises students and researchers at the University of Szczecin.
