Application of art therapy practice in educational and psychological counseling
Mazehóová, Yvona
The dissertation thesis deals with art therapy applied in educational and psychological counseling. Theoretical part of the thesis defines the term "art therapy", theoretical and historical fundaments of the art therapy and touches upon possible applications in treatment. The art therapy process is described from the projective art therapy point of view; specificities of this particular approach in work with children are explained. The developmental view on the art therapy is esp. accented (and described in special chapter). This part of thesis describes the art therapy process together with its goals, possible techniques and themes used in art guidance, the alternatives of methodical supervision and interventions into the child's art production, and evaluation of the therapy progress. Verbal communication with children during the art therapy and interpretation of the product are discussed as well as symbolics and metaphor in art production. The possibilities of art therapeutic work with parents and their inclusion into the therapeutic process are mentioned. The practical part of the thesis begins with survey of current use of art therapy in educational and psychological counseling, which addressed all counseling centers in Czech Republic. The options to use the art therapy in counseling are demonstrated in...

Ergodic Theory
Lisko, Adrian ; Hlubinka, Daniel (advisor) ; Štěpán, Josef (referee)
This Bachelor Thesis compiles basics of ergodic theory. Motivation for writing this text was interesting topic and linkeage between it and the mathematics already learned. The Thesis begins with defining measure-preserving transformations and continues with recurrence and Poincarré's recurrence theorem to ergodicity and Birkhoff's ergodic theorem and mixing. In the end, it is shown that Birkhoff's ergodic theorem generalizes Kolmogorov's strong law of large numbers for stationary random sequences. Theory is demonstrated on a handful of examples of basic transformations.

The importance of probiotics and prebiotics in diseases of childhood
JERKOVIČOVÁ, Diana
The major goal of this thesis was to explore and summarize the issue of the importance of prebiotics and probiotics in the prevention and treatment of disease in childhood in the form of theoretical work using a variety of literary sources, both Czech and foreign. The most important prerequisite for proper physical growth, health and psychosocial development of the child is good nutrition. The simplest and most natural way of feeding babies is breast-feeding. Breast milk is absolutely perfect composition, optimum temperature and protects infants against various infections and allergies. The colonization of the intestinal microflora, which affects among other things, our immune and digestive system, begins to occur during childbirth (vaginal and fecal microflora from its mother), and from breast milk or the environment. The settlement is delayed if the child was born by Caesarean section. If infants are only breastfed their intestinal microflora is composed of 90% of healthy bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. Probiotics are referred as living organisms (bacteria and yeasts) which have shown positive influence on the health of the host when administered in adequate amounts. Probiotics in pediatric practice has tripled over the last ten years. The most used are bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. Prebiotics are non-digestible food ingredients that beneficially affect the host by selectively stimulating the growth and / or activity of certain strains of intestinal microflora. The first area of concern of the effect of prebiotics and probiotics in the prevention and treatment of various diseases in children were atopic disease whose prevalence in recent decades, greatly affects the whole society. In case of atopic dermatitis and food allergies there are number of optimistic studies that demonstrate the positive effect of combination of probiotics and prebiotics (synbiotics), on the other hand, there are studies on this issue which are rather skeptical and do not confirm this positive effect. Convincing results come from the area of diarrhoea. Regarding acute diarrhoea that are in children caused mainly by rotavirus, was observed clearly positive effects of probiotics, which occur to shorten the duration of rotavirus diarrhea to about 40 hours, or to reduce the number of stools and the duration of diarrhea by approximately one day, and especially where there has been the early administration. Similarly, in a majority of cases the positive impact of the use of probiotics for diarrhoea associated with antibiotic treatment, especially during simultaneous use. Regarding inflammatory bowel diseases, favorable results are achieved in particular in the case of ulcerative colitis, which is the use of a positive effect of probiotics in the treatment of patients with mild to moderate inflammatory activity comparable to drug treatment, but in Crohn's disease, a positive influence is entirely clear. Positive results also come in necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm neonates. However, these results are difficult to interpret because studies. Very similar results in the effects of probiotics and prebiotics are in the prevention of nosocomial sepsis in preterm infants. Although showing some positive effects, particularly in infants with very low birth weight, there was a positive effect of probiotics or prebiotics in different studies fully demonstrated and it would be desirable to assess the safety and effectiveness of future research. It would be necessary to examine which specific types of probiotics should be used and in what dosage. In general, therefore, could be said that despite all the optimistic results of a positive effect of probiotics and prebiotics in the prevention and treatment of various diseases, there is the need for further research, that this positive effect is confirmed or refuted.

The impact of the velvet revolution on the form of the Rudé Právo Journal
Senjuková, Tereza ; Šoltys, Otakar (referee) ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor)
Bachelor thesis "The Impact of the Velvet Revolution on the Form of Rudé právo Journal" tries to describe the changes that took place on the pages of Rudé právo journal right after the Velvet Revolution. The basis of the thesis is on an analysis of home news regarding the content (thus with the means of hermeneutical content analysis) and the rate of political and non-political articles (quantity analysis). The thesis deals with continuous ideological changes that one can notice in the reporting of Rudé právo in the era from October 1989 till the end of 1990. It is divided into three parts that on the ground of historical events determining each of the transformation phases: from the beginning of October to the half of November (the first demonstrations of the Velvet Revolution), from the Velvet Revolution till the end of the year (V. Havel's was elected the President) and the year 1990. Each section is accompanied by a brief historical chapter that should provide a historical context to the analysis.

Non-Catholics in the domaine of Trebic in the 17th and 18th century
Honč, Petr ; Petráček, Tomáš (referee) ; Čechura, Jaroslav (advisor)
This research is primarily focused on the non-Catholic population in the domain of Trebic in the 17th and 18th century. A brief summary of the previous religious development in the above mentioned domain during the Reformation period and Thirty Years' War enables us to prove, that falling apart of the confessional identity had already been registered before the beginning of systematic recatholisation. Until then, the domain of Trebic had been a favourite refuge for the refugees from Bohemia. The description of the process of recatholisation in the town of Třebíč and villages of its domain is one of the key topics of this research. Another focus of this work is to demonstrate the contribution of the parish network in the frame of the Třebic's deanship, which was a key success factor for the recatholisation process. A second main topic, and a core issue of this work, is the situation in the domain after the October 1781, when Joseph II. put into effect the Edict of Tolerance. The emphasis is put on the adhesion of non-Catholics to one of the Protestant confessions tolerated by the State and on the challenges emerged as a follow-up. A rupture between Protestants regarding the choice between the Augsburg and Helvetic Confession almost ended hopes for their own congregation.

Food preferences of small terrestrial mammals and their influence on biodiversity of plant communities in wet orchid meadows
CUDLÍN, Ondřej
Food preference of small rodents to consume the roots of wild plants with the emphasize on their impact to bulbs of orchid Dactylorhiza majalis has been studied on three localities during years 2002 - 2007. There were selected ten couples of plants in each plots, one individual of couple plants was protected by tin triangle. Indicated plants have been measured in the beginning (high, length and wide of the leaves and flower number) and at the end of growing period (number of capsules). Small mammals were snaptrapped for three nights in the autumn. On each locality four rows of 25 snap traps were situated, two rows through orchid plots and two without orchids. In years 2004 {--} 2007 the food preference was ascertained on studied sites. Roots of Daucus carota (as a control in year 2004) and roots of Selinum carvifolia (as control in years 2005 - 2007) and roots of tested plant were put into one rectangle "bait" of size 15 x 6 centimeters from gauze. These 50 "baits" were placed among 100 traps on each locality, every other trap, during snaptrapped of small mammals. Browsing was classified by six number scale. During years 2005 - 2007 food preference of Microtus arvalis under laboratory conditions of Science Faculty of South Bohemia University was achieved with the roots of the same species as we used during food preference on plots. During years 2006 -2007 bulbs of Dactylorhiza majalis from laboratory condition and a few idividuals from endengered meadows by revitalization of pond were added. During yeas 2006 and 2007 the contain of stomach from Microtus arvalis and Microtus agrestis, catched during autumn, was studied. Bulb destruction by small rodents during years 2002 - 2007 was not confirmed. But Microtus arvalis preferred bulbs of Dactylorhiza majalis under laboratory conditions and roots of Selinium carvifolium and Lysimachia vulgaris boths in laboratory and wet meadows. Destruction of orchid bulbs and more preferred roots of wild plants by small rodents could occur probably only in outbreaks of their population cycle. I did not observe this on studied plots. In mount of stomach from Microtus arvalis only 3% underground supply organs of plants; rest of stomach contain was consisted of aboveground green part of plants. This result was expexted, because small rodents prefere during vegetation period green part of plants.

Diagnostics and therapy of spiritual emergency - orienting study
Janečková, Barbora ; Bahbouh, Radvan (advisor) ; Břicháček, Václav (referee) ; Hájek, Karel (referee)
The doctoral dissertation contains of a definition of spiritual emergency, differential diagnosis, description of kinds of spiritual emergency. It looks on the therapeutical possibilities in working with these states. Part of the dissertation is analysis of semistructured interviews with clients and therapists who work with these kinds of problems. In the analysis of the interviews with therapists I center on their experience with the dynamics of spiritual emergence, its manifestation and possible existence of similar traits of clients with this diagnosis. Important parts of the interviews are the most effective ways of working with these clients. I was also interested in their own perception on how spiritual emergence occurs and on the possible change in the quality of life of the client after this episode. In the analysis of the interviews with the clients I question when spiritual emergence occurred, how it started, how long did it last and what were the reactions from outside. Important part is centered on the interventions which the client experienced and their efficiency. Case studies demonstrate typical traits described at spiritual emergency, as quite dramatic beginning, complete recovery and also an important change in value system.

Diagnosis of Allergies Caused by Immunoglobulin E.
Drahošová, Vlasta ; Jílek, Petr (advisor) ; Drahošová, Marcela (referee)
In this bachelor work we have tried to handle the topic Diagnostics of the allergies mediated by the immunoglobulin E. The aim was to shortly and clearly describe the allergy from the beginning to the end. The work has been divided into the theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part the origin of the allergy from the molecule to the clinical demonstration has been described. However it is mainly dealt with the diagnostic tests, which should show us how such allergy is being discovered. With regard to the fact that this part is very wide, the most important and most widely used tests have been chosen. The therapy has been mentioned only very briefly. For the easier orientation the images and schemes have been used. In the practical part the examination results of the overall and specific IgE for the whole year 2010 from the attraction zone of Hospital in Havlíčkův Brod have been covered. The main aim of this part was to find out some data about the allergy evolution in our environment. We hoped that we might have found interesting results; and we think this has happened in some cases; in the others the old and known truths have been confirmed.
