Psychological aspects of the late diagnosis of AS
Adámková, Jana ; Sotáková, Hana (advisor) ; Rendl, Miroslav (referee)
The principal purpose of this bachelor's thesis is to survey the psychological aspects of a late diagnosis (in adolescence and later) of the Asperger syndrome (also known as the Asperger's syndrome or Asperger's disorder). For this purpose the author has identified the theoretical assumptions on the basis of which she addresses the impacts of the identification of a diagnosis on the persons' mental state, emphasising the specifics of this process for the diagnosis of the Asperger syndrome. The author then uses these assumptions for performing a qualitative analysis of the testimonies of some people in whom the Asperger syndrome was diagnosed after the age of 30. The respondents talk about their lives prior to learning of their Asperger syndrome, about the influence that this new information has had on them, about the way in which they made the decision to undergo diagnostics, and of what they were afraid and in what they hoped. The conclusion of the thesis summarises the areas with which the identification of an Asperger syndrome diagnosis interferes. KEY WORDS Asperger syndrome diagnostics adulthood psychological aspects

Psychological aspects of gambling and realted consequenses
HŮDOVÁ, Veronika
Psychological aspects of gambling and the consequences associated with this problem My thesis deals with psychological aspects of gambling and the consequences associated with this problem. The research was focused on regular casino visitors, but partly also to gamblers who have already decided to treat their addiction. The theoretical part is divided into 8 subchapters, in which basic terms concerning gambling are mentioned, for example: definitions and categorization of the terms gambling and pathological gambling, a list of possible causes of the addiction origination, characteristics of risk groups, individual forms of gambling, the development of addiction, the addiction treatment and the possibility of a social worker intervention. The purpose of my study was to identify and analyze the motives for gambling with regard to the quality of life, with a special attention to social aspects and possibilities of a social worker intervention. In relation to the objective of the thesis four hypotheses were stated, for verification of which quantitative research was used. The interviewing method by means of a structured questionnaire was selected. The analysis of the conclusions enabled to verify the defined hypothesis, which says, that playing of hazardous games has a negative effect to level of psychological mood of the human being. Another stated hypothesis supposing that gambling causes economic, social, family and work problems has not been confirmed by the research. The following hypothesis presuming that a random winning encourages the gamblers to continue playing has been confirmed by a vast majority of respondents. And the last hypothesis, in which is defined the presumption, that the level of life quality is related to grade of pathological gambling, was also confirmed. The results of my work may be used in education or as information for social workers. Based on the findings on the issue of pathological gambling I suggest to focus on prevention of development of this dangerous addiction.

"Psychology of the crowd during crisis situations - how is able to dispose with that one. (Law and psychological aspects.)"
ŠKOLKOVÁ, Věra
Use of scientific knowledge in crowd psychology is low-level presently. Even the individual branches of the Integrated Rescue System (IRS) do not use crowd psychology, in most cases, for dealing with crisis situations. The fundamental factor in understanding crowd psychology is the fact that crowd is a social aggregate and someone{\crq}s presence in a crowd gives rise to new qualities different from those of individuals present in a crowd. The rise of special qualities of a crowd is caused by the feeling of insurmountable power, psychic contagion and suggestibility of its members. The aim of this paper was, apart from others, to explode the myths about crowd qualities that are supported by numerous psychologists and authors of sociology textbooks. The assertion that a crowd is spontaneous, suggestible and emotional has been refuted by scientific research into a crowd and by logic thinking. Crisis situations often threaten human health and lives or, at least, property must be protected and the understanding of crowd psychology may facilitate the elimination of such consequences. That is why education is important, particularly in the branches of the IRS that deal with acute situations, whether it is a demonstration or a natural disaster. The objective should be the ability of each IRS member to become a ``leader of a crowd{\crq}q and to influence the crowd so that the situation could be dealt with wih the least possible impacts on human health and life or property. It is not sufficient to be aware of crowd psychology in light of its psychological aspects. It is important to learn about them in terms of its legal aspects that are inevitable for the present-day society and maintaining public law and order. A crowd that acts under the impression of anonymity must be made aware that this phenomenon is not so explicit any more and that each individual, howbeit part of a crowd, is legally punishable for their behaviour and acting.
