The Emotional Expression of Mother in connection with application of Vojta Therapy.
KASTNEROVÁ, Drahomíra
The baccalaureate thesis deals with the use of Vojta induction therapy for the treatment of children suffering from various degrees of motor disability ranging from the mildest one up to poliomyelitis, and furthermore with how the mother responds to the child's disability and to the need of intensive exercise. The Vojta principle is understood as the most effective way of therapy in these children. The main aim of the thesis was to evaluate the treatment efficacy precisely according to Vojta, and to determine the mother's emotiveness during the treatment. The respondents included thirty mothers of children in the age up to 18 months that came to my office for exercises. The theoretic part describes facts related to this paediatric disease, which include etiology, its symptoms, clinical image, diagnostics, prevention, the treatment itself, and the role of the family and the mother in caring for the disabled child. In terms of methodology, the practical part is supported by the principles of qualitative- quantitative research based on secondary data analysis and direct observation. Two questionnaires were used as the means to complete a partial goal of the thesis, thus to analyze the mothers' emotions during the child's therapy according to Vojta - Zung Anxiety Self-Assessment Scale and my own questionnaire. Kinesiological assessment of spontaneous motility, of the quality and quantity of physical posture in the development of stand up mechanisms confirmed objective improvement in all respondents after the therapy according to Vojta, which is evidenced by the case report attached. The research indicated reduced anxiety levels of the mothers after three months of exercises with the child using the Vojta method. Certain aspects, which include the frequency, dosage, timely initiation of therapy, proper guidance of the parents by the physiotherapist and the parents' approach to the therapy, also exert an effect on the efficacy of Vojta therapy.

Intervention motion program using psychomotor exercisesfor seniors
ŠTOURAL, Michal
The aim of this bachelor thesis was to develop an intervention motion program for seniors using psychomotor exercises and monitor its impact on psychomotor and memory capabilities of the target group. Set of test subjects consisted of 10 seniors aged 59 to 69 years. To diagnose the impact of the intervention program were used three standardized tests of psychomotor skills and physical skills and a comprehensive memory test. The research was evaluated by comparing the results of tests at the beginning, during and at the end of the intervention program. The investigation shows that the motion of the intervention program had a positive effect on psychomotor and memory abilities of seniors and can be recommended educators to work with clients of the target group.

The impact of IMF financial aid on economic growth and inflation
Covalenco, Valeri ; Horváth, Roman (advisor) ; Mejstřík, Michal (referee)
The International Monetary Fund was created to promote financial stability, global monetary cooperation, high employment, international trade and sustainable economic growth. Together with the World Bank, IMF has a "monopoly" on offering loan programs for countries in deep crises or for development projects. In this thesis, we examine the effect of IMF, i.e. loan size and quotas, on the economic growth and inflation rate, by applying a dynamic panel regression on our dataset. In addition, we look at how the IMF Quotas influence the size of the loans. Our empirical results display significant evidence that IMF loans influence the GDP growth in a positive manner, in the medium term. Both Control of Corruption and Voice & Accountability have a negative influence on the economic growth. In other words, less corruption and stronger civil rights will halt the growth level of the economy. We also determined that IMF Quotas is not a robust indicator of the loan size. It is only driven by the past loan levels. Regarding Inflation determinants, IMF loans are not affecting the Inflation in a significant manner, while FDI and Control of Corruption - do. FDI exercises a positive influence on the CPI, while perception of less corruption has a negative effect on Inflation rate. JEL Classification D73, E31, F12,...

Levitová, Petra ; Daďová, Klára (advisor) ; Oponent B, (referee)
I j ABSTRAKT Název: Skupinové cvičení pro ženy s postmenopauzální osteoporózou Title of thesis: Group exercise for women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Cíl práce: Cílem diplomové práce bylo ověřit, zda skupinové cvičení u žen s osteoporózou po menopauze ovlivní svalovou dysbalanci, rovnováhu a bolest zad. Dalším cílem bylo porovnat vliv různého typu cvičení na výše uvedené parametry. Metoda: K ověření účinku jednotlivých cvičebních programů (antigravitační cvičení, cvičení s Thera-Bandem, cvičení s overballem) bylo vybráno 30 probandek (průměrný věk 62,5 ± 6,58) s prokázanou osteoporózou ve stabilizovaném stádiu. Probandky byly rozděleny do tří souborů čítajících 1O osob. Svalová dysbalance byla vyšetřena dle modifikace vyšetřování hybnosti dle Jandy a Kábelíkové-Vávrové, rovnováha dle vlastní modifikace a bolest dle české škály Křivohlavého. Všechny parametry byly vyšetřeny před a po skončení 3-měsíčního programu skupinového cvičení. Výsledky: Z výsledků vyplynulo, že u všech souborů došlo ke zlepšení vyšetřovaných parametrů. Největší rozdíly mezi jednotlivými cvičebními programy byly patrné u rovnováhy, kde došlo při cvičení s overballem k 21% zlepšení s průměrnou hodnotou před programem 0,65 (± 0,75) a po programu 0,52 (± 0,65). Antigravitačním cvičením došlo k ll% zlepšení s průměrnou hodnotou před...

Pain Mapping in the Senior Population : Pain as a Motivating or Limiting Factor for the Application of Physiotherapy
Lavičková, Romana ; Winternitzová, Irena (referee) ; Sládková, Petra (advisor)
In my bachelor thesis which is titled "Pain mapping in the senior population" I set a task to map the most common musculoskeletal pain bothering the senior population. I am also interested in the question of motivation for the application of physiotherapy. The semistructured interview was used for data collection (experimental sample contains 56 probands). To verify the success of physiotherapy as a suitable alternative of pain influence I have already created three case reports. The results clearly show that 89% of the seniors are limited by some type of the pain which is in 82% of cases connected to the locomotor system. The most frequently reported pains were in the area of knee (24% responses), lumbar spine (21.5%) and hip (19.5%). For 79% of all seniors is pain a motivating factor for the application of physiotherapy (motivating factor for active participation). I also elaborated further obtained information interesting for physiotherapy practice relating to the musculoskeletal pain and the willingnes of cooperation into synaptic charts. I noted the positive impact of exercise on pain in the case of case reports.
