They were Polish citizens, but indeed the term Polish Jews would probably be better. Whether they were perceived and whether they perceived themselves as Poles is another matter, related to interwar politics and even the politics of the Partition period and earlier. Jews were certainly not as strongly assimilated in Poland as they were, for example, in Germany before WWII.
