ŠPIČKA, Jan
In the presented work, I describe the ability of Eurasian Magpie (Pica pica) to recognize predator species differing in the threat they represent. I presented stuffed dummies of northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis, juvenile and adult female), common buzzard (Buteo buteo), common raven (Corvus corax) and common pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) to magpie pairs within the area of České Budějovice. The magpie behaviour was recorded and analysed, to see any dummy species related differences.

Malinová, Michaela ; Morávek, Jakub (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Workplace violence Abstract Herein presented thesis addresses the problem of workplace violence. The thesis focuses on physical and mental violence, with particular emphasis on bullying (mobbing). The thesis is divided into six main chapters. The aim of the first two chapters is to explain the nature of workplace violence, to draw attention to the danger of this pathological phenomenon and to point out the fact that workplace violence can be successfully prevented. The main objective of the thesis is to present, analyze and critically evaluate the existing legal means of protection against workplace violence. In the introductory chapters, the author presents and puts into context the results of national and foreign psychological research on the matter. Research findings suggest that bullying in the workplace could affect approximately one-fifth of Czech employees. The severity of the consequences of bullying can be fully comparable with PTSD from rape or war experiences. Current research suggests that harassment at work can be successfully prevented by creating safe work environment and working conditions. In the key chapters of the thesis, the author presents and analyzes the relevant legislation. Attention is paid to protection under anti-discrimination law, labor law and civil law.

Antipredatory behaviour of Red-backed Shrike: the role of sign stimuli in a predator recognition
Součková, Tereza ; Fuchs, Roman (advisor) ; Hořák, David (referee)
This thesis summarizes findings on a recognition and categorization of different sorts of stimuli at birds, it deals with predator recognition in the Red-backed Shrike (Lanius collurio) in its practical part. The aim of my study was to examine if Red-backed Shrikes follow by sign stimuli or colour of stimulus during the predator recognition. I performed my research by means of experiments with dummies, I have observed antipredatory reactions of Red-backed Shrikes on various types of dummies which differ in the presence or absence of features of raptor or in the different coloration. I concluded according to Shrikes' reactions that during the predator recognition the information on sign stimuli playes the principal role, but only this information alone is not fully sufficient. Antipredatory behaviour of the Red-backed Shrike was also influenced by sex of bird apart from type of dummy, males were more active during the nest defence than females.

Kriegerová, Hana ; Šnýdrová, Ivana (advisor) ; Tureckiová, Michaela (referee)
This thesis deals with the current issue of discrimination in the workplace, especially focuses on discrimination based on age and sex, sexual harassment and bullying in the workplace, legislation that regulates the area of discrimination in labor relations. The theoretical section includes explanations of terms and connections to a given focus and the practical part includes a probe into five large companies examining whether the effects mentioned in the theoretical part actually occur in practice, or how these problems are solved. This probe was in the form of semi-structured interview respondents in their workplaces. The results confirmed the claim that one of the most vulnerable group are women. Larger companies are trying to provide them a variety of advantages as for example flexible-time work, etc. Some companies have confirmed that there were some cases of bullying or sexual harassment in their firm, but these situations have not been solved other than by the dismissal of one of the participants. However, the occurrence of age discrimination was in the surveyed companies not confirmed - despite the theoretical claims and personal experience. It also showed that the respondents, HR professionals from large companies, have a poor conception of the possible solutions of those situations and...

Bullying in the intensive care units. The main mission of this thesis is to describe an issue called mobbing. The primary target is to get information about rate of bullying in the intensive care units in south Bohemia, especially in Prachatice and Strakonice city and to know how many percent of employees / paramedics of the intensive care units were already touched by bullying.

První pomoc při šikaně v práci: praktický manuál pro zaměstnance ohrožené některou z forem šikany v zaměstnání – mobbingem, bossingem nebo staffingem
Spurný, Joža ; Scheu, Lenka ; Havelka, Josef ; Ranglová, Jana
Na pracovištích bývá poměrně často opomíjena kvalita interpersonálních vztahů. Ze strany managementu takových organizací je věnována pozornost především měřitelným ekonomickým a jiným ukazatelům, aniž by si jeho příslušníci uvědomovali, že se kvalita interpersonálních vztahů významně podepisuje na těch ukazatelích, na které se především zaměřují. Na jedné straně si tak jsou ve shodě s manažerskou literaturou vědomi skutečnosti, že lidé představují největší bohatství jejich organizace, na straně druhé se však o toto bohatství nestarají adekvátním způsobem, což platí i o oblasti mezilidských vztahů. Přitom poznatky ze sociometrických výzkumů, které byly provedené v 60. letech minulého století mezi posádkami amerických bombardérů během války ve Vietnamu, poukázaly na to, že osádky tvořené průměrnými členy s dobrými vztahy mezi sebou dosahují lepších výsledků v porovnání s osádkami, které sice byly tvořené špičkovými vojáky, avšak mezi nimiž nepanovaly právě nejlepší mezilidské vztahy.1 Špatná kvalita interpersonálních vztahů na pracovišti může mít variabilní intenzitu a různou délku trvání. K nejzávažnějším jevům v této oblasti náleží mobbing, bossing a staffing, jimž je věnovaná pozornost v této stati. Jejím cílem je poskytnou základní orientaci v této problematice, na kterou je možno nahlížet z různých pohledů (např. z pohledu psychologického, sociologického, právního aj.).

Bullying as a pathological phenomenon in the workplace
Hejzlarová, Alice ; Štefko, Martin (advisor) ; Tomšej, Jakub (referee)
Bullying as a pathological phenomenon in the workplace Abstract The thesis paper examines the pathological phenomenon of bullying, focusing on its occurrence in the workplace in connection with employee mental health, a topic that until recently has been relatively neglected but which in recent years has increasingly moved to the forefront of general public awareness. Each chapter of the paper analyses the manifestations of bullying in the workplace, the people to whom it relates, as well as its consequences on mental and physical health. The issue of bullying in the workplace is further described de lege lata and opens up the possibility of regulation de lege ferenda. It examines the risks and threats associated with this issue and provides a brief overview of the history of bullying, its types and forms. It also presents possibilities of defence from the victim's point of view and focuses on specific environments where bullying occurs, such as in the security forces and military, health care or education. It also discusses national and transnational initiatives in this area, as well as currently functioning practical examples of their application from abroad, which could in many ways serve as inspiration for future Czech legislation. The work reflects relevant case law and describes and adds to the...
