Zapotilová, Mariana ; Láb, Filip (advisor) ; Turek, Pavel (referee)
Graduation thesis entitled "Confrontation of work of photo editors in selected Czech and American periodicals" discusses the important profession of photo editors in the Czech Republic and the United States and attempts to compare it in these two different countries. In the first part I would like to briefly outline the history of photojournalism in the Czech Republic and the United States and describe the aspects which influenced it during two centuries. In the next chapter I focus on notions, since not everyone is familiar with the position and powers of newspaper photo editors, and the types of photographs the journalism operates with. Here I explain the emergence of the profession which is much younger than actual photojournalism. In the research section I want to - through the use of interviews with several professional photographers and photo editors - explain the various procedures and newsroom routines. I focus mainly on the habits and processes, that go before the capturing the photograph, and subsequent decision-making process in selecting images for the newspapers. I also briefly compare the problems of education and training in the field of visual journalism. In one of the chapters I turn to the newspaper photo captions and on the basis of illustrative examples I try to answer the question how...

Employment and Employment Possibility of Older People in the Czech Republic
Sadílková, Petra ; Čabanová, Bohumila (advisor) ; Nekolová, Markéta (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the situation of elderly people in the labour market. Czech population is aging. Life expectancy is increasing and the number of older people grows. This fact influences labour market and overall development of society. In order to continue functioning of social system and in order to maintain the current standard of living of the elderly population, it is necessary to participate in the labour market for a longer time. Elderly people do not represent an interesting and promising workforce for companies in many ways. Employers do not appreciate the quality and potential of seniors and prefer younger workers. Elderly people are persons of pre-retirement age who are ranked as a risk group in the labour market, threatened by unemployment. This thesis defines barriers limiting larger economic activity of elderly people. The main goal is to identify existing instruments to combat shortages of older people. The thesis proposes the measures to encourage elderly people's involvement in the labour market, and opportunities to increase their human capital. The research results indicate that key factors for long working life are advanced training and development of qualification and skills. These actions enable the extension of economic activity, which is a necessity nowadays.

The reasons and the extent of drug abuse within the children from social and cultural unfavourable environment
CHRTOVÁ, Ivana
For my thesis I have chosen this topic Reasons and the extent of drug abuse within the children from social and cultural unfavourable environment. I was attracted by this theme during my school practical training. Drug experiments with the follow-up abuse within the children?s population are becoming more and more a serious problem not only in the Czech Republic but in the whole world too. Lately the age limit has cut down for the experiments related to legal as well as illegal drugs. The children from the social and cultural unfavourable environment are involved in drug abuse and other pathological phenomenon much sooner than the major society, which explains the lower age limit. When the child belongs to the social and cultural disadvantageous group of inhabitants, he/she comes into the social, health, economical and often criminal problems. To be a member of such excluded group can cause that the child is more likely exposed to frequently and risky drug abuse. The thesis refers to the drug abuse by the children from the social and cultural unfavourable environment. The data for the thesis were collected from the 14 and 15 year old children in special pedagogical institutions in the South Bohemian region. The quantity research was applied to get the data, via anonymous questioner enriched with the additional discussion with the therapists of the respective institution, and were analysed in quality. The previously stated hypothesis were verified and evaluated based on the results qualification. The thesis contains the theoretical part which explains the basic terms, describes models of drug addiction, as the base for the statement and the cause of drug experiments and abuse within the children?s population from disadvantageous environment. The theoretical part concludes the research results of this subject provided within the children?s ordinary population to be compared with this thesis research results. The practical part marks out the goals and describes the own steps of the research. The aim of this work is to find out the reasons and extent of the drug abuse by the children from the social and cultural unfavourable environment. The partial aim was to compare the reasons and extent of drug abuse within these children with the data previously obtained from the ordinary children?s population in the Czech Republic. The research results present higher segment of the respondents from the social and cultural unfavourable environment related to addictives, including higher frequency of the abuse, rather younger age of the first experience with addictives, even regular abuse and experience with various types of addictives compared to regular children?s population. Thanks to the research results we can point to the fact that the reasons of using addictives by the children from the social and cultural unfavourable environment differ from the reasons of the ordinary children?s population. It consists mainly in psychological and social deprivation of those children and absence of the basic psychological needs fulfilment. Such stigma subsequently influences the predisposition to addictives abuse by the children from the social and cultural unfavourable environment, who owing to the drug may be able ?to forget? their problems at least for a while. The thesis results can be used in practice, for teaching, for further research or as the source of information for general public as well as for experts.

Increased volume and content of the load was observed in the on-ice conditioning program. The content of off-ice conditioning program in the pre-season time in ice hockey is a non-specific activity focused mainly on development of speed-strength abilities. The on-ice training program increases the proportion of the development of...

The effect of physiotherapy on function of postural mobility in high-performance sportsmen (tennis players)
Šobáňová, Jindřiška ; Kolář, Pavel (advisor) ; Horáček, Ondřej (referee)
This thesis, entitled "The effect of physiotherapy on the function of postural motorics in competitive sportsmen (tennis players)", deals with how the activation of the deep stabilizing muscles affects postural functions in adolescent tennis players. A group of 13 competitive tennis players, aged between 10 and 17 years, were used as our probands. These subjects were examined with a bespoke set of tests of functions and then they were individually educated to train with a set of stabilization functions. After the therapy, they were re-examined with this set of tests again and the results of both sets of tests were compared and evaluated. In particular, we evaluated the changes in reactions of individual players, the changes in separate tests and in groups of tests, and the position of players in match rankings.
