Literary and psychological specifics of fairy tales as a genre
Šimotová, Eva ; Kučera, Miloš (advisor) ; Klusák, Miroslav (referee)
My Diploma Thesis has a theoretical character. I dealt with fairy tales as a genre. I worked only with the folkloric fairy tales that are different from the modern ones in the way of universality. In the first part I looked for characteristic features of these stories from the literary and psychological point of view. I focused on time and place expression and how the fairy tale deals with the identity of characters and typical phenomenon of the good and the bad. Through these principles children can easily identify with the heroes of stories and therefore they help to solve specific developmental crisis and also to reach individual autonomy and integrity. For me, the theoretical basis was psychoanalysis and thus I followed the fairy tales theory of Bruno Bettelheim. I used this theory in the second part of my thesis as well. The interpretation of four fairy tales: Litte Red Riding-hood (Červená Karkulka), Jack an Jill (Perníková chaloupka), The Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Sněhurka) and Hrnečku, vař! are given. It is about the determination of the main topic and the interpretation of individual motives. Besides the different options how to interpret it I also compared the different versions of these stories. At the end I tried to have a critical view on Bettelheim's approach and also to find...

Papíková, Lucie ; Smetáčková, Irena (advisor) ; Pecha Šimotová, Eva (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the adolescents' concepts about ideal male appearance. The work is divided into two parts - theoretical and empirical. In the theoretical part, I focused on the presentation and description of the different concepts and areas that are relate to the topic. In the first chapter I dealt with the developmental period of adolescence, where I first characterized this period and subsequently described the individual changes that adolescents are going through. The next chapter was devoted to the topic of gender, where I define and describe the basic concepts of gender issues and I closer focused on masculinity and masculine behavior. Subsequently, I focused on the classroom as on the respondents' environment, in which my research was originated. The last chapter my theoretical part was devoted to the issues of appearance and the ideal of beauty, where I first tried to describe the general trend of ideal beauty and subsequently I focused on the ideal of male beauty. In the empirical part I analyzed the results of my research, which was consisted of three primary methods - observation, questionnaire and Repertory grid.

Fousková, Natálie ; Smetáčková, Irena (advisor) ; Pecha Šimotová, Eva (referee)
BAKALÁŘSKÁ PRÁCE The school class from the gender perspective - children's behaviour during the lessons Abstract I focused on the behaviour of girls and boys during their lessons at the first stage of elementary school. I created a topology of children in one class, concentrating on the masculine or feminine features of their behaviour. I explored the views of the children, including their motivation and the way they perceive the rules of behaviour and their teacher. The secondary topic is the teacher's view of the children and their conduct. In the first half of the thesis I introduce gender as both a scientific and social phenomenon, describing important aspects of gender in a child's development and concentrating on the role of gender in the classroom. In the second half of the thesis I introduce the method and process of performing the research, its results, their interpretation and a comparison with the theoretical basis. Key words pupils, school lessons, gender, school, teacher, gender stereotypes, education Natálie Fousková Praha 2014

SIMOTOVÁ, Eva
This thesis focuses on the exploration and analysis of the current state of motivation and stimulation of employees in an organization. Based on the determined level of their motivation and stimulation, particular corrective measures were proposed to increase the employees´ motivation, loyalty to their employer as well as their overall satisfaction with working life. The first stage comprised a review of professional literature, both domestic and foreign, and studies dealing with motivation and stimulation. Using appropriate research methods, the current state of motivation and stimulation of employees in the given organization was analysed. Based on the information gathered from questionnaires and unstructured interviews, the corrective measures were proposed. They could help effectively increase motivation of the employees and strengthen their relationship with the organization.
