Leisure activities for children aged 10-15 and a group of young firefighters
VANÍČKOVÁ, Monika
The topic of the bachelor's thesis is the free-time activity of children who attend young firemen's groups working at volunteer fire brigades, in connection with the more general question of how children in early adolescence spend their free time. The work deals with basic categories such as free time and education in free time, and the target group of children is characterized from the point of view of developmental psychology. In connection with the leisure activities of children of the given age group, the bachelor's thesis also maps the organizational structure and activities of the Firefighters' Association of Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia and the functioning of volunteer firefighter corps and young firefighter collectives. The young firemen's club is thematized from the point of view of its leisure potential.

Flow experience and engagement by task in German lessons
Vaníčková, Monika ; Pavelková, Isabella (advisor) ; High, Radka (referee)
Theoretical part of this theses discussed different types of motivation to learn, the extended cognitive model of motivation, attitudes towards school subjects, issues regarding interest and grades, flow theory and the conceptual model of student engagement and optimal learning environments. In the empirical part was presented a pilot study focused on flow experience and engagement by task in German lessons. This study was realized in one class of a grammar school (n = 28). Questionnaire methods were used and acquired data were of both quantitative and qualitative nature. The aim of the pilot study was (1) to map motivational variables related to engagement and flow in the task situatuon in German lessons and (2) to discover, which contextual characteristics can facilitate student engagement from their point of view. In this study has been investigated the connection between engagement before a task and after it, between engagement and flow in the task and their connection to attitudes towards German lessons, achievement motivation, grades and success in the task, emotions and concentracion. It was discovered a more stable nature of flow and engagement in two consecutive tasks of the same type, but with increasing difficulty. In the pilot study were suggested connections of flow and engagement with...

Vascular changes and hippocampal atrophy in Enhanced Cued Recall test
Vaníčková, Monika ; Kulišťák, Petr (advisor) ; Šivicová, Gabriela (referee)
Memory structure, memory assessment, Grober-Buschke paradigm, Alzheimer disease, and vascular dementia were discussed in the first part of the present thesis. Present study aims to examine the relationship between white matter changes, hippocampal atrophy and the performance in Enhanced Cued Recall test in nondemented geriatric population (n = 104). Partial neparametric correlations were used while controlling for age and Fazekas score. Medium correlations were found between left/right hippocampal volumes and free and total recall. No correlations were found between Fazekas score and ECR scores while controlling for age and left and right hippocampal volumes. Keywords: hippocampal atrophy, white matter changes, cued recall, ECR
