Locus of control in socially excluded Roma
JESTŘÁB, Jakub
The aim of the diploma thesis was: "to describe the Locus of control of socially excluded Romani people", while the main research question was: "What is the specifics of Locus of control in socially excluded Romani people?" The following hypotheses were established: "The degree of social exclusion affects the Locus of control in socially excluded Romani people.", "There are differences between gender and Locus of control in socially excluded Romani." and "There are differences in Locus of control in socially excluded Romani people employed and unemployed. " To achieve the goal, a strategy of quantitative research was chosen, which was carried out using the method of questioning through standardized questionnaires Locus of control IPC scale Hanna Levenson and the questionnaire Scale of social exclusion. The research group consisted of 537 respondents from the ORP České Budějovice and Cheb 106. Hypothesis H1 was tested using the so-called correlation analysis. Hypotheses H2 and H3 were tested using the so-called T-test for two independent groups (unpaired, two-sample T-test). In the first hypothesis (H1) based on the findings, it can be stated that one of the three parties available to Locus of Control has been confirmed, as there is a statistically significant relationship between internal and random (r = 0.118; p = 0.006); external and random (r = 0.184; p = 0.000) and external and exclusive (r = -0.090; p = 0.037). In the second hypothesis (H2) it has been found that the relationship does not exist, i.e. nothing significant was found (internal - t = 1,642 and sig = 0,101; external - t = -, 270 and sig = 0,788; random - t = 1,186 and sig = 0.236). In the third hypothesis (H3) it has been found that the relationship does not exist, i.e. nothing significant was found (internal - t = 1,642 and sig = 0,101; external - t = -, 270 and sig = 0,788; random - t = 1,186 and sig = 0.236). The findings of the diploma thesis can be used in the integration of acquired knowledge into community work in socially excluded localities.

The role of supervisors in social service facilities from the perspective of executives
JESTŘÁB, Jakub
This bachelor thesis deals with the expected role of the supervisor in the social services facility. The aim of this thesis was to map the expected role of supervisor from the perspective of senior social service workers with registered services of special regime homes in South Bohemia. The thesis consists of a theoretical and a research part. The first chapter introduces the context of providing social services in accordance with the current legislation. Special space is dedicated to the social service - "home with a special regime" and its target group. Furthermore, the term "helping professions" and their application in social services are discussed. The second chapter of the theoretical part deals with supervision and its conception in social work. In the section on supervision, this process is defined, goals and functions or types and forms are mentioned, the supervisory contract is also added. The section devoted to the supervisor discusses his / her professional competence and personality assumptions. The last third chapter of the theoretical part presents in detail the evaluation criteria of the supervisor in terms of personality qualities, negotiating a supervision contract, ethical and moral aspects, education and professional assumptions, direct management and supervision management, documentation and communication of acquired knowledge. The empirical part examines the expected role of supervisor from the perspective of executives. The main research question was: "What is the expected role of the supervisor in terms of executives?" The following four research questions have been set to answer the main research question: What personality assumptions influence the quality of the supervisor? What qualities should a supervisor meet professionally in terms of education? What do the formalities of supervision optimally look like? What should supervision output look like? The research was carried out by means of a qualitative research stratégy. To collect data, there was chosen the technique of semi-structured interview with senior social service workers with registered services of special regime homes in the South Bohemian Region. The research was conducted in two phases. The first phase was pre-research and the second phase was the research itself. The research sample was compiled using quota selection and consisted of ten informants. The research showed that the communication skills and the ability to empathize with others are positively evaluated in personality assumptions. On the contrary, arrogance, authoritarianism, ridicule, self-centered or impulsive behaviour is undesirable. A male supervisor who has at least a middle age is better accepted. The supervisor should be aware of the fact that he / she has power of supervising and should not deliberately abuse it. In addition, research suggests that if a supervisor is expected to have a proper education, then it should be in the form of a university degree in psychology, social work, andragogy or sociology. Supervisory training is intended to serve the supervisor for higher professionalism and psychotherapeutic training to help him / her work more professionally. It was also found that most of the facilities has a supervisory contract for a period of one year and then mostly prolongs it. In particular, he / she specifies payment terms and confidentiality Furthermore, from the obtained data it can be stated that supervision should be performed every three months in the form of a combination of individual and group supervision. The topics should be primarily working topics, especially at the level of inter-institutional relations. The facility evaluates only the process of supervision and its impact, not the supervisor. The interviews were recorded on a dictaphone, then literally transcribed and processed by the clusthering method. The clusters were then encoded and divided into more general categories.
