Title: Monitoring of the quality of body posture and of the relation between body posture and physical fitness at young school-age children Objective: The main goal of the work is to determine the quality of body posture and to find out the relation between posture and individual components of physical fitness and between posture and leisure time regime at a selected group of children of young school-age children Methods: The research group consisted of 147 children, 77 boys and 70 girls from 1st to 3rd grades aged 6.3 to 9.7 years. To evaluation of posture has been performed by the Matthias test, which has been modified tor the purpose of this thesis. This modified test was verified in a pilot study. The assessment of physical fitness was based on a UNIFITTEST 6-60 test battery, also the values of somatic features were measured. The test battery was supplemented by a test of maximum reach while sitting bended. To determine the volume of physical activities, a questionnaire was used, resp. the survey, which was completed by parents, due to the age of the children. To evaluate the date, statistical methods have been used for evaluating differences (the-test, Mann-Whitney test, Kruskal- Wallis test) and to analyse the depency of variables a Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was used.

Title: The Gymnastics objects analysis in preparation of physical education teachers with focus on Artistic gymnastics. Thesis objective This thesis was aimed to determine the content of Artistic gymnastics as a part of physical education teaching study programme. To achieve the primary objective two other sub-objectives were established. These were examined in two research phases: 1. the school documentation analysis in respect of: a) objectives, results and contents of Artistic gymnastics study plans b) distribution of individual Gymnastics objects (Artistic gymnastics in particular) and their frequency in a lesson plan 2. to learn and define requirements posed upon the personality of a high school physical education teacher. Methods The research continued in two phases. The first phase was to analyse the school documentation and explore the focus on contents of Artistic gymnastics study plans, its range and required results. To find the answer on relevance and necessity of particular competences of Artistic gymnastics graduates the repertory grid method was used in the second phase of research. The repertory grid provided large quantity of information questioning a group of 15 experts divided in three sub-groups based on their experience with gymnastics teaching. Results With respect to...

Králová, Kateřina ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Blahutková, Marie (referee)
Title: Barriers of hypokinetic adolecents to active lifestyle The dissertation addresses the issue of physical activity among adolescents studying at secondary vocational schools. It focuses on those students who do not meet the minimum recommended number of steps per day, i.e. inactive students. The aim of the study was to clarify the reasons which prevent them from adopting a more active lifestyle. To better understand student responses, we also examined the relationship to school physical education as a school subject that has the potential to positively influence the physical activity habits of youth. Research was carried out on a group of students 15-16 years old at secondary vocational schools (two in Prague, one in the Moravian-Silesian Region). A total of 315 students were studied. A standardized questionnaire was used to obtain information about student opinions on physical education. Sigma Activo fitness bracelets were used to monitor amount of physical activity, and a semi-structured interview was used to determine specific barriers to physical activity. According to our results, 29.5 % of students are inactive, more frequently boys. Overall, these students have a favorable view of physical education. Although the majority are satisfied with PE class, they have problems with certain...

Summary: Title: Creation and verification of effectivness of our new ''Music-based physical educational (MBPE) programme for pre-school children" The main aim of this research is to create and validate a comprehensive interventional programme for preschool children. The programme is aimed at all- round personal development of the children. The research also intends to validate applicability of the programme in practice as it aims to establish the impact of the programme on rhytmical, motor, sensor-motor, musical and memory skills of preschool children. The research also aims to clearly define conditions under which the programme can be performed as it focuses on the support of a preschool child's natural kinetic, sensor-motor, musical and rhythmical competencies with the stress on personal health and hygiene. The results of this thesis are based on the author's self-produced resources and both qualitative and quantitative research results. The quantitative research used a test battery of musical-motor skills. The thesis consolidates results of our observations, observations by teachers and parents throughout the school year, interviews with children, expert analysis of videos, discussion with experts in pedagogy and child's psychology. The results ascertain that our music-based physical educational...
