The Use of Vibration in Sports and Health Care
Koutná, Martina ; Stackeová, Daniela (advisor) ; Malá, Jitka (referee)
Title: The Use of Vibration in Sports and Health Care Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine whole-body vibration training as potential training method in sport and health area. The usage of vibration training should increase strength, bone mineral density, and balance. Methods: This diploma thesis is solely theoretical. It is based on review of available literary sources, clinical trials accessible through electronic databases of medical and sports, and library catalogs. The resources from sport, physiology, biomechanics, and various medical disciplines (osteology, physiotherapy, kinesiology) were used also. Results: The research concluded that the usage of whole-body vibration of an appropriate frequency or acceleration respectively could represent an alternative or a supplement to conventional training in order to increase muscle strength and bone mineral density or improve balance and mobility of elderly. The selection of right vibration parameters could support ordinary physical therapy of some neurological disorders. Keywords: vibration, whole-body vibration training, muscle strength, balance, bone mineral density, neurological disorders, physical therapy

Use of vibration in sports and health care
Koutná, Martina ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Pavlů, Dagmar (referee)
Title: The Use of Vibration in Sports and Health Care Objectives: The aim of this study is to confirm or refute established hypotheses. Hypotheses: 1. The use of vibration loading improves muscle strength. 2. The use of vibration loading improves bone mineral density. 3. The use of vibration loading can influence balance. Methods: This diploma thesis is elaborated as search form. It is based on exploration of available literary sources, clinical trials accessible through electronic databases of medical and sports, and library catalogs. The resources from sport, physiology, biomechanics, and various medical disciplines (osteology, physiotherapy, kinesiology) were used also. Results: Due to retrieval process of whole body vibration training it was found out that this method can improve muscle strength, bone mineral density, balance and mobility. The effect depends on chosen parameters of whole-body vibrations. Under certain conditions whole-body vibration training could represent an alternative or a supplement to conventional training in order to increase muscle strength and bone mineral density or improve balance and mobility of elderly. The selection of right vibration parameters could support ordinary physical therapy of some neurological disorders. Keywords: vibration, whole-body vibration...

Overqualification: real or artificial problem?
Koutná, Martina ; Veselý, Arnošt (advisor) ; Kohoutek, Jan (referee)
The imbalance in the labor market between the supply of and demand for skills is a widespread phenomenon that may contribute to unemployment and lower productivity and competitiveness. This diploma thesis aims to explore and understand the complex phenomena of skill mismatches on the labor market. As skill mismatch manifests itself in various forms, there exist different but also related concepts of educational or qualification and skill mismatches. In the first part a clear distinction between skill and qualification mismatch is made, the links between different types of mismatches are described and the debate of using each of the concepts is situated as well as the comparison of advantages and disadvantages of different concepts. Next part of this thesis concerns also with potential causes of mismatches in the labor market as well as its consequences and implications for individuals, businesses and society as a whole. In the next section, the information on possible measures of educational or qualification and skill mismatches is offered and the comparison of these measures is made. A new approach for measuring skill mismatch is introduced. Due to published results from PIAAC survey, which contains measures of skill proficiency and also information about qualifications, educational as well as...

The procedures of public administration in the area of state aid
Koutná, Martina ; Kopecký, Martin (advisor) ; Pomahač, Richard (referee)
Thesis on the topic: The procedures of public administration in the area of state aid Author: Martina Koutná The main aim of this thesis on the topic "The procedures of public administration in the area of state aid" is to analyze the issue of investment incentives in the Czech Republic from the perspective of the state aid rules and the reasons for this regulation. The main attention is paid to the system of investment incentives based on Act on Investment Incentives in the context of the general problems of state aid. The work focuses on the application of the Administrative Code on the investment incentives and analyzes the process of public administration in providing subsidies on the basis of budget rules. The aim is to analyze the diametrically different approaches and to point out key differences. In particular, that the Administrative Code is applicable to the process of providing investment incentives and the process is subject to judicial review. While in the case of subsidies, on the basis of budget rules, neither administrative procedure nor judicial review is possible. In connection with the provision of subsidies " anti-corruption amendment" to the budget rules is critically assessed and the author refers attention to its unconstitutionality. Among other things, the thesis points out...

Sexual education in elementary schools in Czech Republic
Koutná, Martina ; Kalous, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Sloboda, Zdeněk (referee)
The thesis deals with the issue of sex education at schools. The objective is to analyse the current state of sex education at primary schools. Basic information is being drawn from the theory of sex education and it is being dealt with its aims, content, principles, methods, and concepts. The history of ways in which sexuality has been perceived is an integral part of the text. A brief overview of stages which the process of integrating sex education into education programmes has gone through is included as well. A reflexion on the ways sex education is handled abroad can be also found within the thesis. Emphasis is being laid on the social impact of complex sex education and its role in preventing a number of pathological social facts and other negative aspects in the society as a whole. Attention is being paid to topics of public policy revolving around sex education and to the values involved in the process of creating education policies. The work makes use of qualitative analytical methods of both public policy documents and expert studies. This means is combined with secondary data analysis. Findings stated are the basis for a discussion of key factors which are nowadays considered to be setting the way in which sex education is being thought at primary schools. The outcome of this work may...
