Psychological aspects of gender at work and in management
Pauknerová, Daniela ; Riegel, Karel (advisor) ; Rymeš, Milan (referee)
V současné době se do středu zájmu odborníků z oblasti věd o člověku a společnosti dostala problematika rovných příležitostí pro muže a ženy, která má zásadní vliv i na život každého z nás. Velmi aktuální a významná je zejména pro hospodářskou praxi, a to z hlediska působení jednotlivců v pracovním procesu, kde stále existují určité limity pokud jde o reálné možnosti uplatnění žen, a to jak ve funkcích řadových zaměstnanců, tak především v oblasti managementu. Výraznější zájem o tuto problematiku v našich podmínkách přitom podnítilo zejména postupné pronikání informací o hnutí za zrovnoprávnění šancí pro ženy, které dlouhodobě existuje v USA a západoevropských zemích. Kromě toho se zde však podílely i již delší dobu trvající rozpory mezi mírou zaměstnanosti u mužů a žen ve vztahu k jejich možnostem a hmotnému ocenění jejich práce. A konečně nejvýznamnější měrou se v současnosti na bouřlivém vývoji zájmu o tuto problematiku aktuálně podepsala i nutnost přizpůsobit naší legislativu podmínkám EU. Ve vztahu k této problematice se dnes již běžně používá anglický pojem gender (rod, pohlaví). V mezinárodních souvislostech se užívá především ve vztahu k ženám a rovnosti jejich uplatnění ve společnosti. Ostatně i v našich podmínkách je v současnosti tato problematika označována jako "genderová". Blíže se k...

Burnout syndrome in Health Care Professionals.
Riethof, Norbert ; Bob, Petr (advisor) ; Světlák, Miroslav (referee) ; Pauknerová, Daniela (referee)
N. Riethof - Burnout syndrome in Health Care Professionals ABSTRACT Burnout syndrome is a state of total exhaustion related to work condi- tions and prolonged stress. While initial phases of burnout resemble stress symptoms, final phases of burnout are characterized by feelings of hopelessness, loss of meaning and desperation that have similar qual- ities as depression as well as existential vacuum described by Frankl in his logotherapy. In addition, the burnout syndrome involves stages in which people detach from their emotions and feelings as a defense mechanism against stress and have decreased ability to experience their own feelings and emotional states. Burnout usually begins with feelings of enthusiasm and idealized visualizations and it is in contrast with sub- sequent disillusionment, disappointment experienced later. After decades of burnout research, there is still a need for better def- inition of this condition including more precise diagnostic criteria and internationally recognized measurement tools, especially within health care system where the risks of unrecognized and untreated burnout are high. This study is focused on examination of potential causes of burn- out and relationships of burnout symptoms with certain personality traits, defense mechanisms and coping reactions including...
