Plecitá, Monika ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Vondráčková, Petra (referee)
Highways building and expressways in general has been taking place all over the world for tens of years. As one of the major advantages of this building up is almost automatically, except an improvement of traffic situation, mentioned the benefit to the regional development in concerned areas. However, there are a few executed studies of highways impact on the regional development and most of them are from abroad. The studies show that presence of highway has a different impact on each region. In peripheral regions highways rather further deepen the disparities between the core and the periphery. The town of Rokycany acts as a relatively strong centre for its hinterland and thanks to D5 highway as a suburban area of the nearby and ten times larger city of Pilsen. The traffic diverting out of the Rokycany centre was necessary even if the local shopkeepers can experience a drop of incomes. The local authorities and the major firms welcome the presence of highway. But we can't ratify development of Rokycany caused by highway D5. Key words: highway, regional development, Rokycany, questionnaire enquiry

Deliberate Self-harm as a Specific Form of Addictive Behavior: A Concept of Non-substance Addiction Verification
Horová Šímová, Lucie ; Vacek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Vondráčková, Petra (referee)
Záměrné sebepoškozování představuje nutkavé jednání, které se vyskytuje zejména v období dospívání. Právě v tomto období se zvyšuje riziko experimentování a riskování v oblasti chování. Dospívající jedinec je tak vystaven mnoha rizikům a nebezpečím, kterým musí čelit a bojovat s nimi. Není-li na tyto okolnosti jedinec předem dostatečně připraven, může jim velmi snadno podlehnout. Sebepoškozování se pak pro dospívajícího často stává nástrojem na zvládání nebezpečných vlivů a nepříjemných pocitů. Přetrvávat může i několik let a sebepoškozování tak může v mnohých případech přerůst v jakousi formu "závislosti". Cílem práce je popsat fenomén záměrného sebepoškozování jako jednu ze specifických forem návykového chování, ověřit tak koncept nelátkové závislosti a poukázat na některé společné či podobné znaky se závislostmi látkovými.
