Lešníková, Barbora ; Miskolczi, Martina (advisor) ; Cséfalvaiová, Kornélia (referee)
The objective of this diploma thesis is on one side to analyze the fertility rate in Slovakia, Czech republic and Sweeden and to compare their development after the fall of the communist establishment from 1990 till 2014 and on the other side to categorize these countries to clusters of EU countries based on chosen variables using multidimensional statistical analysis. I consider the second chapter of the thesis, which focuses on analysis of intensity of fertility rate using direct standardization as well as on verification, whether connection between clusters of EU countries and their geographical location exists, to be my personal addition to the addressed issue. Based on my analyses, the conclusion of the thesis is a finding, that countries, which support reduced working hours have a higher total fertility rate. For that reason, if the natality is about to grow, it is a must to concentrate not only on states family politics but mainly to support the ability of young mothers to become part of a regular working process while on their maternity leave.

Slámová, Lucie ; Miskolczi, Martina (advisor) ; Šimková, Martina (referee)
The objective of the thesis is to analyze development of fertility in Czech Republic in selected time periods. There is a question of whether the important political and social changes affect the reproductive behavior of the population or not. The task is divided into two main parts. The first, theoretical part describes the historical background, political and social changes that occurred from 1940 to 2012. Also the theories of family policy and state support for families with children are described. The second part, practical one, is prepared by using data from Czech Statistical Office. Here are graphically illustrated demographic indicators mainly fertility, the average age of mothers and first-time mothers and the net reproduction rate. The observed data are then confronted with the historical context. The work suggests that significant social and political changes actually affect fertility. This effect, however, is only temporary. In the observed period, there was not such a strong impulse, which would affect the behavior of young families permanently.

Podmanická, Jitka ; Vostrovská, Zdenka (advisor) ; Bekisheva, Irina (referee)
Number of applicants not only for secondary apprentice schools but also is decreasing due to demographic development. Things that are changing are also the preferences and shift of demand towards grammar schools as the students and their parents try to concentrate on university studies which they considers as a necessity nowadays. This is the cause for outflow of students from the secondary apprentice schools without A-levels and some parents make their children apply for university just to earn a degree which the young would not chose as their first option. The target of this work is to find out if the changes in demographic development and the changes in human thinking really influence the quality of students at both secondary and tertiary educational institutions. The methods that have been used in this work are descriptive analysis, questionnaires and detailed inspection of previously published analyses, their results and confrontation with the conclusions. The conclusion of this work summarises results of the analysis, evaluates the limits of the methods used and states the recommendations to the future.
