The question of mandatory vaccination and vaccination coverage
Borovcová, Anna ; Bezchlebová, Daniela (advisor) ; Fabiánová, Jana (referee)
The main concern of this thesis is the issue of mandatory vaccination and vaccination coverage in the Czech Republic. Therefore it focuses on all vaccines against infectious diseases which are now mandatory for all of the children: measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus, viral hepatitis B, poliomyelitis and diseases caused by Haemophilus influenzae type b. The goal of this thesis is to illustrate the importance and benefits of vaccination on incidence and mortality of these diseases. Another part of this thesis is also description of methodology which is used to gather data about vaccination coverage and what the results are. In this part Liberec Region is used as an example. As a result of the unsuitable methodology which is used for data gathering in the Czech Republic, it was not possible to say whether the vaccination coverage de-creases in time. The thesis itself provides an information overview about vaccination which is important from demographic point of view and it also might be an impulse for changing current methodology of data collection.

Functional data analysis and modeling age-specific mortality and age-specific fertility
Bezchlebová, Daniela ; Bašta, Milan (advisor) ; Dotlačilová, Petra (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to analyze two major indicators representing the processes of natural changes in population, which are not influenced by age structure -- age specific fertility rate and age specific mortality rate and to introduce functional data analysis, which has recently become increasingly applied in many scientific fields. The functional data analysis is introduced on the Czech demographic data set for more than last sixty years. The thesis briefly describes historical development of mortality and fertility and also describes selected methods of functional data analysis by using statistical program R. Functional data analysis provides a wide variety of graphics tools to explore the data which we called functional and help us to explore all typical and atypical features, identify outliers etc.

Seasonality on selected demographic time series over the last 10 years
Bezchlebová, Daniela ; Šimpach, Ondřej (advisor) ; Bašta, Milan (referee)
Nowadays there is a noticeable trend towards increasing number of children being born out of wedlock -- that is, not in marriage. But the term "marriage" has gained a completely different meaning than in the past. Unmarried cohabitation has become a common alternative to marriage. This is illustrated by the fact that until the end of the 1960s, the proportion of births out of wedlock is very low. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the monthly time series of the number of in-wedlock and out-of-wedlock live births in the Czech Republic over the last ten years, based on selected socio-demographic and technical characteristics, and to prove or reject the statistical significance of the occurrence of seasonal element and further quantify and simulate this element.
