Negative time perspective of adolescents and its connection with self-efficacy
Slížková, Markéta ; Lukavská, Kateřina (advisor) ; Pavelková, Isabella (referee)
The thesis is focused on exploring of relationship between Time Perspective and Self-Efficacy in late Adolescence. The theoretical part presents Zimbardo's and Boyd's conception of Time Perspective, Bandura's conception of Self-Efficacy and conception of Negative Time Perspective as an individual concept. The empirical part examines the relationship between the individual dimensions of Negative Time Perspective and Self-Efficacy in academic, emotional and social domain. In addition, the differences in Time Perspective and Self-Efficacy between students in the last year of high school and students in the first year of university and gender differences are examined. The results confirm the expected significant correlation between Negative Time Perspective and Self-Efficacy and the integrity of the concept Negative Time Perspective. University students score higher in Negative Time Perspective and Academic Self-Efficacy, but lower in Present Hedonistic than high school students. The analysis of gender differences also showed that girls score higher in Negative Time Perspective and Academic Self-Efficacy, but lower in Emotional Self-Efficacy than boys.

Expressions of negative time perspective in adolescence
Svobodová, Lucie ; Lukavská, Kateřina (advisor) ; High, Radka (referee)
The Bachelor thesis tries to look at the problem of time perspective from the point of view of qualitative research and to find out how time perspective will be manifested in the testimonies of individuals about their own life or the life of strangers. The theoretical part focuses on the introduction of time perspective and its research. It also describes the reason for researching time perspective in adolescence and describes several influential theories about time perspective. They are the personality-motivational concept by J. Nuttin, the theory of the future perspective by T. Gjesme and the theory of perspective orientation by I. Pavelková. Most attention is devoted to P. Zimbardo's theory, which is also the basis for the carried-out research. The empirical part focuses mainly on the presentation of results from the research. It was done in several grammar schools in Prague, where students filled out a time perspective questionnaire (ZTPI) and two other questionnaires that were not used in this work. Several selected students were then interviewed using the Thematic-apperception test (TAT) and the Lifeline test. The results were processed in the program ⹂Interact" The aim of the research was to find differences and abnormalities in the testimonies of individuals. Thus, we tried to reveal how...

Negative Time Perspective in Adolescents and its relationship with the attachement
Kocourek, David ; Lukavská, Kateřina (advisor) ; High, Radka (referee)
This thesis deals with the phenomenon of negative time perspective in adolescent age in connection with attachment style. In the theoretical introduction, both concepts are presented: (1) Zimbard's concept of time perspective, (2) Bowlby's and Ainsworth's attachment theory. The empirical part deals with the statistical analysis of the possible connection between the negative time perspective and the anxiety / evasive type of attachment bond. On the data found in the S-ZTPI and ECR questionnaires on two sets of respondents: (1) graduate students and (2) university students, I conducted a descriptive statistical analysis, the t-tests to compare two files and calculated the Pearson correlation coefficient. The results showed a strong relationship between the anxiety attachment style and the overall negative time perspective. Another finding was that women score more prominently on the scale of anxiety than men. Given that collections of graduates and undergraduates were not gender balanced, I could not make any conclusions about the differences in the negative time perspective between groups of undergraduates and graduates. Keywords: Time Perspective, Negative Time Perspective, ZTPI, adolescence, attachment, ECR

Diagnostic of Time Perspective in High School Students ́
High, Radka ; Pavelková, Isabella (advisor) ; Chrz, Vladimír (referee) ; Holeček, Václav (referee)
This disertation thesis thematize the relationship to the future in high school students' and the diagnostic possibilities of this phenomena. We will describe the philosophical and primarily the psychological conception of time. The thesis focuses on the main theoretical concepts of time perspective, the cognitive-motivational theories and their relationship with achievement motivation. The empirical part has three goals: 1. The diagnostic of time perspective, 2. The description of students'relationship to the future, 3. The investigation of relationship between time perspective and achievement motivation. The analysis of the coding system of the Motivational Induction Method lead to improving this system. There was a battery of tests (quantitative and mixed methodology) used to diagnose the time perspective of students', namely Motivational Induction Method (Nuttin), Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (Zimbardo), Achievement Motivation Questionaire (Hrabal, Pavelková) and Motivational Sources of Learning Activities (Pavelková, Hrabal). The case studies that can show positives and/or negatives of used methods and individual ways of representing the future are presented in the end of the thesis. Key words: time perspective, future time perspective, perspective orientation, achievement motivation,...

Relationship between Time Perspective and Achievement Motivation
Vitošková, Veronika
TITLE: The Relationship between Time Perspective and Achievement Motivation AUTHOR: Mgr. Veronika Vitošková DEPARTMENT: Department of Psychology SUPERVISOR: Doc. PhDr. Isabella Pavelková, CSc. ABSTRACT: This dissertation addresses the relationship pupils and students to the future, the relationship between time perspective and achievement motivation. The close relationship between the given issue and volitional qualities of a person is also discussed. The theoretical part concentrates on the scientific views of a person's life time dimension, the relationship between the time perspective and the achievement motivation and the relation of these concepts to the issues of volition. The main emphasis is on cognitive and personality concepts of motivation of the time perspective (Gjesme, Nuttin, Lens, Zimbardo, from Czech publications on the concepts of perspective orientation by Pavelková) and on the traditional works about achievement motivation of Atkinson, Raynor and Heckhausen. In our analysis of the aforementioned theoretical concepts we concentrated primarily on finding overlaps, close relations and continuities within the described systems. The practical part represents a structured research of the time perspective, the achievement motivation and will of primary school pupils and secondary school...

What makes a reasonable player: self-regulation, time perspective and habits in online gaming
Lukavská, Kateřina ; Chrz, Vladimír (advisor) ; Klusák, Miroslav (referee) ; Urbánek, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis concerns factors that affect the intensity of MMORPG playing and the gaming addiction symptoms. In the theoretical part, I discuss approaches to the excessive and problematic gaming. I argue for the shift of perspective from gaming addiction disorder toward self-regulation, time perspective, activity theory and habitual regulation. Two inventory-based studies were conducted in order to empirically verify the effect of proposed variables on MMORPG usage. First, the significant role of Time Perspective (TP), measured by Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI), has been confirmed. Second, the habitual regulation had been identified to significantly affect the usage. The habits related to usage were measured by the new psychometrical tool - Cues Sensitivity Scale (CSS). TP and habits influence the usage together - the effect of TP is partially mediated through Cues Sensitivity as well as through the players' deliberate regulation of playing time. All measured variables showed stability in time (measured after three years in subset of respondents). Data was analyzed with statistical methods, mainly with Partial-Least-Squares Path- Modelling (PLS-PM). The part of the data - respondents' strategies of playing time regulation - were analyzed qualitatively.

Distinction in the break up adjustment in people with different time orientation.
Krejčová, Monika ; Kebza, Vladimír (advisor) ; Vranka, Marek (referee)
The thesis deals with the relationship between one's time perspective and their ability to cope with the termination of the relationship. The time perspective is composed of five temporal orientations - past positive, past negative, present hedonistic, present fatalistic and future - which differ from each other in personality characteristics and their influence on human behavior. Our aim was to explore the differences among them in the choice of coping strategies in dealing with a breakup and verify the hypothesis. The following methods were used in the research: Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI), questions concerning respondent's breakup and Brief COPE, which measured a total of 14 coping strategies on a sample of 237 respondents. The results confirmed the different choices of coping strategies among five time orientations. Although it was not proved that some temporal orientations (past negative) would cope with the breakup more problematically, it seems, however, that these ones mostly use maladaptive coping strategies which can make their breakup adjustment harder. In the conclusion, therefore, are also considered the possibilities of application of our results in psychological counseling practice. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Diagnostics of Time Perspective in Grammar School Students
Škvařil, Václav ; High, Radka (advisor) ; Pavelková, Isabella (referee)
This Bachelor thesis focuses on time perspective in grammar school students and the possibilities of its diagnostics. The text is divided into two parts - theoretical and empirical. The emphasis is given on the practical part. The theoretical part describes basic psychological findings about a time factor with the emphasis on its regulatory function. Different theories and approaches, that occured throughout history, are presented. The greatest attention is given to the Nuttin's personality- motivational concept of time perspective, Pavelková's theory of the perspective orientation, Zimbardo's time perspective theory and description of the diagnostic methods. The empirical part presents the research that was realized in the period from May to June 2015 in grammar school students of three classes in Prague. The major objective of this study was to map the time perspective of these students and to compare the diagnostic methods. As a main instrument was used the Motivational Induction Method, which finds out information about objects of time perspective and their position in time. To collect data we also used Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI), The Perspective Orientation Questionnaire and The Inventory of Motivational Categories. The Inventory of Motivational Categories was applied in order...
