Real extate tax in England
Horáková, Daniela ; Sedmihradská, Lucie (advisor) ; Sedmihradská, Lucie (referee)
Firstly, my bachelors' paper deals with the importance of tax revenue for local budgets in the Czech Republic and in England. It composes and contrasts in tax laws in both countries. In the Czech Republic all land and building are under only one law, while in England everything is under two laws. All depends on the purpose of usage of the land. If the building and adjacent land is used for living, it must be regulate by the Council tax, if it's used for business purposes, it must be regulate by Business Rates. Consequently my paper investigates, how English land laws relate to the real estate, from the perspective of fulfillment of taxes' principles. It also discusses the possibility of these legal regulations being implemented in the Czech Republic

Education of children of foreing nationalities at Czech schools
Rabe, Nina ; Váňová, Miroslava (referee) ; Mazáčová, Nataša (advisor)
In the theoretical part of my thesis I address the issue of minorities and the members of minorities and their specific educational needs. I share the experience I gained at the international school, Riverside School, where I performed my practical teaching and taught for a further semester. I draw upon the variety of experiences of teachers and pupils. I describe the situation regarding the education of foreign children in the Czech Republic and at the end of the theoretical part I outline the situation in the United States of America. In the empirical part I attempt to determine by means of a questionnaire survey to what extent teachers and schools are prepared for their work with foreigners, whether they have a support system and whether they consider the phenomenon of foreign children at Czech schools to be a problem. In the end I compare the situation at Czech schools with the situation at schools in the USA.

Multifunctional agriculture in Czechia after accesion to the European Union: conceptualisation, development and regional differentiation
Hrabák, Jiří ; Jančák, Vít (advisor) ; Spišiak, Peter (referee) ; Novotná, Marie (referee)
8 Abstract The dissertation deals with the concepts of multifunctional agriculture in the context of transformations of Czech agriculture in the post-communist era. In general, the study mainly wanted to discuss the concepts of multifunctional agriculture, known for over three decades, especially from the Anglo-Saxon environment, and to analyse the development of Czech agriculture as well as application of multifunctional agriculture especially in the period after Czechia's joining the European Union, including the perception of multifunctional activities by farmers. The initial part of the study discusses the concepts of multifunctional agriculture as non- commodity production (OECD 2001) and an integral part of rural development (Van der Ploeg, Roep 2003) on the one hand and of agricultural multifunctionality (Wilson 2007), on the other. The empirical part of the work was based on a quantitative assessment of regional differentiation of multifunctional agriculture in Czechia, the territorial concentration of multifunctional activities and dependence between the variables that influence its implementation. The evaluation of the perception of multifunctional activities by farmers has resulted from a field survey, or interviews conducted with farmers in three areas of interest of various types (municipality...

The Behaviour of Japanese Macaques (Macaca fuscata) with a Concentration on Infant-handling in a Zoo
Hradilová, Eva ; Marván, Richard (advisor) ; Vančata, Václav (referee)
This study (1) detailly describes and analyses selected affiliative behaviours in a captive group of Japanese monkeys (Macaca fuscata) and compares all findings with results of other studies in free- ranging and captive primate groups; (2) tries to deepen our knowledge about distribution of the affiliative behaviours in terms of the biological markets theory (N06 and Hammerstein 1995) with emphasis on possible effects of dominance-submisive relations, status of females (mothers vs. non- mothers) as well as age of dependent infants and thus examines its functionality in our study group; (3) tests which hypotheses about distribution of affiliative behaviours in nonhuman primates (see Seyfarth 1977, 1980, de Waal and Luttrell 1986, Manson 1998, Bentley-Condit et al. 2001, Henzi and Barrett 2002, Kleindorfer, Wasser 2004) fit best to situation in the study group. Subjects were 12 Japanese monkeys at Olomouc Zoo (Czech Republic): 8 adult females (all > 5 years of age; 4 mothers and 4 non- mothers) and 4 dependent infants ( 0 - 4 months of age; 1 female and 3 males). In summer 2006, a total of 138 observation hours of behavioural data were gathered on 23 days. A combination of focal-animal sampling, all occurences sampling, instantaneous scan sampling and ad libitum sampling (Altman 1974) was used to score adult...

Testing of composite hypotheses in regression models with small sample size
Simerská, Olga ; Hlávka, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kulich, Michal (advisor)
The thesis, through a simulation study, examines the behaviour of asymptotic tests for testing hypotheses that several coefficients in logistic models are zero. Likelihood ratio, Wald's, and Rao's tests are considered. The necessary theory is formulated to derive the form of the statistics of asymptotic tests for testing composite hypotheses in logistic regression. Based on the numerical treatment of simulated data, the levels of significance of these tests are investigated, with critical values of the chi-squared distribution. The powers of the tests are then compared, modified empirically so that all tests reject the null hypotesis at the 5% level. The main focus is on the dependence of these values on the sample size and parameter settings.

Quality of life dialysis and transplanted patients
Pěkný, Radek ; Znojová, Marcela (referee) ; Šivicová, Gabriela (advisor)
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a chronic illness, which significantly in:fluences patienť s life. Two widespread possibilities of renul replaccmcnt therapy are dialysis and kidney transplantation. The first section of a theoretical part summarizes medical aspects of ESRD. The second section deals with psychosocial aspects of chronic illness generally, which are replenished with a particularity of dialysis and transplantation. The last section hands in theoretical constructs of quality of life and sumarizes results of foreign studies, which have dealt with Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) of dialysed and transplanted patients. Empirical part of the thesis maps HRQoL in relation to some selected factors (gender, marital status, age, level of education and period of treatment) in group of dialysed and transplanted patients. The main goal of the whole thesis is comparing HRQoL among dialysed and transplanted patients measured by SF-36 and WHOQoLBREF questionnaires.

Aggression and Drug Dependence - Looking for a Relationship
Šrahůlková, Kateřina ; Goldmann, Petr (advisor) ; Hadj - Moussová, Zuzana (referee)
In meiner Diplomsarbeit möchte ich mich den Zusammenhängen der Aggressivität und der Abhängigkeiten von Suchtstoffen widmen. Ich möchte an einer kleinen Stichprobe von Drogenabhängigen versuchen zu feststellen und nachfolgend zu bescheiben, auf welche Art der Missbrauch von Suchtstoffen ihr Verhalten und ihre Tendenz zur Aggressivität beeinflusst. Außerdem würde ich gerne herausfinden, ob im Verhältnis zur Aggressivität, ein wichtiger Faktor die Art der Droge, welche diese Abhängigen miss - gebrauchen, ist. Die Diplomsarbeit wird einen Forschungscharakter haben. In dem theoretischen Teil werde ich aus theoretischer Sicht die Aggressivität und Drogenabhängigkeiten und auch die Charakteristik einzelner Drogen und ihre Wirkung behandeln. In dem praktischen Teil werde ich Drogenabhängigen (welche verschiedene Drogen missbrauchen) einen Handtest und einen Baumtest vergeben. Zur Vergabe und der Auswertung des Handtests wird mich Mgr. A. Šrahůlková einlernen. Gemeinsam mit diesen Tests werde ich den Drogenabhängigen auch Fragen aus eigenem Fragebogen, in welchem ich ihre subjektiven Gefühle in Zusammenhang mit dem Missbrauch von Suchtstoffen und dem Einfluss dieser Stoffe auf ihre Persönlichkeit erforschen versuche, stellen. Zur Endbeurteilung ihrer Persönlichkeit werde ich noch ein gezieltes Gespräch mit dem...

Process and rate of disability among seniors
Malá, Marcela ; Tomeš, Igor (advisor) ; Šťastná, Jaroslava (referee)
The most characteristic feature of the demographic development in the Czech Republic and other developed countries is population ageing. The aim of the thesis "The process and rate of disability among seniors" was to determine the extent to which disability interferes with the lives of the seniors and to map the development, progress and conditions of the pension system. After an introductory overview of basic concepts, a part of the thesis deals with a theoretical analysis of the European framework of social security of seniors and another part is concerned with the reform of disability pensions in the Czech Republic. The focus is also on the forms of care for disabled pensioners. The last chapter of a theoretical part deals with deinstitutionalization. The empirical part analyzes the areas related to the development of population structure, administrative agenda, overview of pensions according to the WHO diagnosis groups, total overview of disability pensions, the development of the structure of pensions, financing of pension administration, and the average age of retired people. The economic side is also included, where pensions are compared with average salary and also the economic activity of seniors, housing, health and social services. The research is quantitative and confirms the current global...
