Bullying and its context
HRABĚTOVÁ, Iva
The thesis give the analysis of the aggressive behaviour of pupils attending primary school, which manifests in the form of bullying (peer abuse). The objective of my thesis is to give account of bullying characteristics, the link of bullying to the school environment which is determined by social preferences between children. Attention is paid to the personal experience with bullying in the role of a victim, as awitness or an aggressor, to the awareness of methods of bullying and to other phenomena. To collect data on bullying I used a self-made questionnaire and also a sociometric questionnaire by J.Moren to examine some characteristics of the group dynamics within a class in the school. The research was conducted in a primary school in České Budějovice, four classes at the post-primary level were involved. The basic results of my thesis comprise the survey of bullying in some classes with pupils at the post-primary level, the typical manifestations, connections and characteristics of bullying.

Aggression in children and youth
FICALOVÁ, Barbora
The topic of my thesis {\clqq}Aggression in children and youth`` has become a heavily discussed issue recently. One of the reasons for this fact is the increasing concern of media about the problems. Cases of children aggression are often presented in the television news, posted on the Internet or discussed in newspapers. The most alarming fact is the decreasing age of young aggressors. The theoretical section of my thesis is focused on the phenomenon of pathological aggression, its classification, forms, the theory of aggression and reasons for its origination. Bullying (peer abuse) is one of the most common forms of children and youth aggression and therefore I cover the issue in one entire chapter. Together with new technologies bullying is transformed into new forms such as cyberbullying which is also briefly mentioned in the thesis. The objectives of my thesis are to learn the causes of children and youth aggression, the influence of aggression on the social adaptation of an individual, problems and consequences of the aggressive behaviour. The research was conducted in an educational facility for young aggressors where teenage girls aged 15 {--} 18 years with serious behaviour disorders and educational problems are placed. The typical behavioural problem in these teenage girls is aggression. So I did not conduct the research in the prevailing population. To keep anonymity, instead of the interview method the questionnaire method and the obtained data analysis were used. Owing to the small number of teenage girls willing or able to fill in the questionnaires, 10 questionnaires were filled in correctly and completely. The most important finding of the research was the fact that all the teenage girls questioned, who show an aggressive behaviour, were themselves exposed to aggression in childhood, most often in the form of home violence in the primary family, but also in an educational facility or at school in the form of peer abuse. This early experience influences the later used behavioural formulas and recognized values. It is possible to say that the fundamental prerequisite for the harmonious development of a child is a good education with an absence both of excessive punishment and pathology in the family.

Vexation at highschools in Kroměříž county
VITOŠOVÁ, Andrea
ABSTRACT In today´s world chicane becomes more pronounced term and is considered to be the most significant negative aspect of current school system. In addition unlike chicane in the past today is displays more alarming features. That includes in particular increasing number of chicane occurrence in schools, lower age of offenders and increased aggressivity and brutality of such behaviour. Chicane is a complex and cross-society problem. And it is defined as any behaviour with the intention to harm somebody repeatedly, threaten or intimidate other student or group of students. This intentional violence is focused on individuals or groups of students who don{\crq}t know how or cant defend themselves for whatever reason. It includes physical attacks in form of beating, extortion, robberies, damaging of property of others as well as verbal attacks in form of invectives, aspersions, assault or humiliation. It may also have the form of sexual harassment or even sexual abuse. Chicane occurs also indirectly as notable neglecting or ignoring of a student or students by the teacher or other group of students. Danger of chicane is based mainly on its severity, long term effect and related consequences for mental and physical health. These are the reasons why chicane must not be neglected and underestimated. The purpose of this diploma work is to map occurrence and severity of chicane in secondary vocational schools in Kroměříž district. In my opinion this objective has been achieved. The research objective was to prove or disprove the following hypothesis: H1: Chicane occurs in secondary vocational schools in Kroměříž district. H2: Most of chicane cases are not of severe character in secondary vocational schools in Kroměříž district. H3: Most of chicane offenders also display discipline problems. H4: Boys are more often chicane offenders than girls. The H1 hypothesis has been proved. 66 % of students in secondary vocational schools in Kroměříž ever experienced chicane and 21 % of students experience chicane in their current school. The H2 hypothesis has been proved. Chicane is not of severe character. The most common form of chicane is verbal attacks, humiliation and aspersions. The H3 hypothesis has been disproved. The research did not prove that chicane offenders also display discipline problems. The H4 hypothesis has been proved. The result of the research conclude that boys are more often chicane offenders, in 60% of cases. In addition the research pointed out the problem of chicane reporting and solving. Chicane often remains unreported or is reported but not addressed. As concerns the chicane abatement issue in secondary schools, also 8 % of students is of the opinion that their school effectively addresses chicane and less than 61 % of student does not even know if their schools are addressing this problem at all. Therefore I would recommend to schools to pay more attention to communication with students about this socially pathological problem and take preventive measures.

Behaviour disorders - bullying
VLKOVÁ, Kateřina
Aggression and bullying currently represent a threat that is present in children´s lives from the early years of school attendance and can aggravate with their age. The problem does not concern the children alone but also the adults and the whole society. The aim of this thesis titled Behaviour disorders {--} bullying was to find out what the experience with bullying was among the 9th graders of cooperating basic schools in Tábor, as well as to describe how these problems are dealt with by the teachers at the schools in question. Dealing with these problems and stopping vexation at the level of the entire society is a complicated, long-term process. It is necessary to start the education early and familiarise the children with moral and social rules. The inevitable precondition is the cooperation of all subjects involved in this process. They have to be informed on the causes, forms, prevention methods and consequences related to the problem.

Dilemma of chicane at the basic school
HOLOUBKOVÁ, Eva
The diploma thesis deals with the problem of aggressiveness and chicane among children at the second level of basic schools and its prevention in the Pilsen region. Further on it is also concerned with the teachers´ perspective and their awareness of the topic of chicane. In the theoretical part I am going to analyse the fundamental terms of the topic. The attention is going to be localized on the personality of the aggressor and the victims of chicane, on the cooperation of the school and parents, on the authority of the teacher or class and school climate. There is going to be a special chapter devoted to the description of the system concerning the prevention of the chicane. In the practical part I am going to endeavour to find out by the help of a questionnaire survey, how the schoolchildren are informed about the chicane and what kinds of form are used to this purpose. I compare these results with the theoretical knowledge.

Mobing and bossing the workplace
MANETHOVÁ, Jana
Mobbing and bossing represent vexation at a workplace, which unfortunately affects also health care and health care teams. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to find out knowledge of the terms mobbing and bossing, as well as occurrence of vexation at neurosurgical departments (Intensive Care Unit, SIP and two standard departments) in the Nemocnice na Homolce hospital in Prague. In order to fulfill these aims and hypotheses, the method of quantitative data collection by means of questionnaires was chosen. The questionnaires were filled out by physicians, medical nurses and medical attendants, both by women and men. The aims of the work were fulfilled. It followed from the results of the survey, that almost one third of respondents was not familiar with the terms mobbing and bossing, or they could not define them accurately. It was found out after mapping the occurrence of vexation at workplaces that a majority of informants did not know, where they should turn in case of occurrence of mobbing and bossing. The first hypothesis on more extensive occurrence of vexation towards women than men was confirmed. The second hypothesis regarding the knowledge of how to fight mobbing and bossing was not confirmed, as the respondents were not familiar with possibilities of how to cope effectively with vexation at a workplace. After the review of all filled-out questionnaires it followed that in case of occurrence of mobbing and bossing the leaving from work is preferred more than active defense against colleagues, or superiors. We believe that a workshop on the topic of mobbing and bossing would be welcomed by a majority of respondents. They would clarify for themselves the difference between vexation and powers of superiors, but also possibilities of active defense.

PULTAROVÁ, Lucie
Abstract The bachelor thesis ``Preventive programs aimed at bullying{\crqq} contains a theoretical part and a practical one. The theoretical part explains basic concepts related to bullying and a prevention of this phenomenon. Then it informs on a hazard of individual forms and grades of bullying, principles of diagnosis and preventive actions. It also introduces specific prevention programs and projects, which have been or are being implemented in the Czech Republic, there are set out information and basic ideas of the programs. There are also mentioned various organizations dealing with the problem of bullying. In the practical part there are presented results from the qualitative research carried out at elementary schools in České Budějovice, Třeboň, Zliv and Nové Hrady. An analysis of free written essays was used as a technique for data collecting. Respondents were pupils of the second level from mentioned elementary schools who worked up above stated free written essays. They experience of bullying should have been described by them in those essays. A goal of the thesis was to map experience of pupils from the second level of elementary schools with bullying and to analyse their spontaneous written statements on bullying through research questions dealing with both experience and also awareness of pupils on forms of bullying and a hazard rate of its individual forms. Our analysis was based on the assumption, that the pupils used a projection during their writing, thus they projected their real experiences into their stories. The research suggests the following conclusions: Respondents in their works mostly mentioned as a victim of bullying a pupil from whom an aggressor demanded the money. The most frequently mentioned is a blended form of bullying that means a combination of physical and verbal forms. Respondents describe that the victim confer with the problem itself or bullying was reported by a classmate, who knew about it and then it was solved. When it was reported in a short time, everything went well, but as the second mentioned option, a solution of bullying only after the apparent injury of the victim, is mentioned. The results of the thesis demonstrate a level of awareness of the pupils from the second level of elementary schools on individual forms of bullying and their hazards. Findings learned from the works could be an instruction how to proceed in similar situations and how to prevent them.

The Causes of School Fear
LANGOVÁ, Martina
My bachelor thesis addresses fear of school, especially its causes. It also briefly defines scolinophobia and anxiety related to fear. The causes of school fear are divided into three ranges: child´s personality, family and school environment. The causes of school fear should be sought within the individual himself, but also in the family. I concentrate especially on education of children, which can have the effect of arousing fear. The biggest part on the origin of fear has the school environment itself. The relationship of the child and the teacher is mentioned here, and also the influence and effect of the peer group on an individual.
