Motivational Resources of Mental Health Support in Middle-aged People
VAŠINOVÁ, Iveta
In this Bachelor diploma paper I dealt with the survey of motivational sources of mental health support with middle-aged people. The research was held in the region of Southern Moravia, in the district of Uherské Hradiště. The research was arranged in the way of public-opinion poll. The people have been chosen and adressed by chance. In the thesis four hypothesises have been diagnosed with the focus on middle-aged people´s knowledge of mental health problems and their support of mental health. Two of the hypothesis have been confirmed, two of the hypothesis have been disproved. The acquired data have been statisticly evaluated. The main aim of the thesis was to work out the concept of interventionist programme for the improvement of mental health of middle-aged people on the basis of yogistic methods. The programme consists of possibilities of mental health support, as well as information about the right way of breathing (Nadi Sodhana), possibilities of relaxation methods (Yoga Nidra) and also learning about Six-Treasures (Sat-Sampati). The programme was set up in the way to be easily applied into the every day use in future. According to paper results, despite the middle-aged people know the menthal health definition, they don´t do exercises supporting menthal health. The result of the paper is therefore a methodical material, which shall help not only to spread the mental health knowledge but also to offer to middle-aged people practical skills supporting menthal health. The programme in its full version is part of the Bachelor diploma paper.

Motivation sources of mental health support in preadolescents - girls
MACOUNOVÁ, Iva
The bachelor thesis deals with the motivation sources supporting mental health in pre-adolescent girls. The theoretical part of the work includes findings on health as a whole and from several different points of view. An independent chapter is dedicated to the definition of the term mental health and its determiners, focusing mainly on sleep. The major part of the theoritical section of the work deals with the characteristics of pre-adolescent girls and a description of the changes in this stage of development. The research section is concerned with the results and data obtained from the intervention programme, which was created in cooperation with Eliška Šindelirová and subsequently applied to the 6th and 8th forms of primary school. The programme was aimed at mapping the state of sleeping habits among pre-adolescent girls and the subsequent motivation and support of correct sleeping habits. All the results which were possible to obtain within the frame of the entire intervention programme are presented in the research section. It was proved that pre-adolescent girls don{\crq}t follow the sleep regime appropriate to their age, but computer games are not the reason for the lower sleep quotas. Based on the results, we recomend the inclusion of the topics of sleep problems within hours of health education curriculum in primary schools.
