Based on qualitative and quantitative studies carried out in two Italian research institutions and two Polish ones, the chapter aims to answer three research questions: 1.What is the role of passion when becoming an academic? 2. Can the concept of the ‘Dualistic Model of Passion’ be detected in the careers of interviewees and what characterises harmonious and obsessive scholars? 3. What is the role of becoming a parent when we take the concept of the ‘Dualistic Model of Passion’: can Passion for Family and Passion for Science coexist, or is it always Passion for Family OR Science?
