Analysis of population knowledge about radon in selected localities in the Czech Republic
STARÁ, Adéla
This work summarizes information about radioactivity, natural sources, and radon. It also addresses health complications associated with radon, sources and ways it penetrates buildings. Furthermore, it discusses the radon program, which outlines anti-radon measures aimed at protecting the population from radon exposure through effective building modifications. The aim of the presented bachelor thesis is to determine the level of awareness among the population of the South Bohemian Region about radon. It compares the awareness of the population in the South Bohemian Region about radon in the age category up to 40 years and in the age category over 40 years. A questionnaire survey was used to achieve this goal. This survey determined the extent to which residents of the South Bohemian Region are familiar with the topic of radon. On average, people answered correctly 68 % of the time. The research section summarizes the results of the questionnaire survey using graphs. These results are further processed using statistical methods. Thanks to these methods, both hypotheses were confirmed. The first hypothesis examined whether the awareness of the population of the South Bohemian Region about radon would reach at least 70 %, which was confirmed using a one-sample t-test. The second hypothesis concerned comparing the knowledge of the population of the South Bohemian Region about radon. It was investigated whether the awareness of the population in the age category over 40 years would be statistically significantly higher than the awareness of the population in the age category up to 40 years. The hypothesis was confirmed using a two-sample t-test.
