Kotrba, Matěj ; Nikolai, Tomáš (advisor) ; Urbanová, Kateřina (referee)
The topic of this bachelor thesis concerns coping flexibility in persons with schizophrenia.

Our expectation is that persons with schizophrenia will exhibit worse coping flexibility and gravitate towards potentially maladaptive coping, as opposed to the control group collected from a neuro-typical...
