My Bachelor{\crq}s thesis focused on the impact of chronic disease, in our case enuresis nocturna, on the functionality of the family. Every family is influenced by many factors. Families are especially weakened when a family member suffers from a chronic disease. The Theoretical part of my Bachelor{\crq}s Thesis attempts to define the term ``family{\crqq} through historical development and family division. The thesis describes how single parent families function and the qualities of functional families. In addition, it attempts to describe the characteristics of families in which domestic disturbances occur. Finally, our focus deals with the subject of enuresis nocturna. The thesis defines this disease, its treatment, and how it is diagnosed. Just as the family has an impact on the children, children also have an impact on the family, especially when children suffer from enuresis. This disease has serious physical implications on both the family and on the children in this system. The aim of the work was to ascertain how family functioning impacts enuresis in children. In order to obtain this information, a qualitative research questionnaire was created using direct questions and standardized interviews. The interviews were conducted with 15 respondents in their home environment. Respondents were given information about my visits over the phone. The research indicated lowered HRQL of mothers and family function. The research was created using seven hypotheses. The Bachelor{\crq}s Thesis can be used by university level students as a guideline for research on comparison outcome{\crq}s with healthy population.

The crisis of the contemporary family - psychosocial aspects
MIKULOVÁ, Radka
Today{\crq}s marriages and partnerships come with knowing that they can end easily. The social stigma previously linked to divorce is a long time gone. A life without a wedding is not only socially acceptable, but even fashionable. Divorce is very traumatic, very painful and it leaves long-term consequences for all involved. Even more so for the children who only barely understand, what happened. The loss of certitude is often combined with the feeling of guilt. The children may assume it is their fault that the parents broke up. The consequences of stress are still visible long after the divorce. The goal of this work was to map the child situation in a divorced family. To discover the consequences of divorce for the child{\crq}s future development. The chosen method was a combination of quality and quantity research. For the mapping of this issue, quality research was chosen at first which used conversation techniques with adult children who went through their parents` divorce. For quantity research we used questionnaires. Two-hundred and sixty of them were distributed in schools, with the questionnaires divided into two parts. The first part was focused on opinions regarding marriage, the second was on mapping the situation of children who went through the parents` divorce. The questionnaire was completed by 54 children from divorced and 179 from non-divorced marriages. The goal of the quality research was to map problematics of divorce from the view of today{\crq}s now adult children. The goal of the quantity research was to map opinions of high school and university students on marriage and family. An additional goal of the quantity research was to find out how the students who experienced their parents` divorce view the process and consequences of divorce. The direct influence of divorce on child development was not proved. The inquired informants do not consider the time following the divorce a traumatic life experience. The research shows then that divorce does not always have to be a catastrophe for the child. It depends also on the personality and immunity of the child. If the parents can openly speak about what is happening, the child can more easily accept the situation and even begin to realize the bright sides.

Investigation and Valuation of Families´ Functionality
ABESKOVÁ, Žaneta
This bachelor{\crq}s work is intended to focus on family, its functionality and values thereof. The work is aimed at assessing the validity and utility of the questionnaire according to the model created by Dunovsky that was designed to research into ways of family functionality. The theoretical part is trying to give us a closer look at and define the term ``family{\crqq}, and it primarily concerns with its key functions, especially those related to biological reproduction, economic function of the family, emotional and social-behavioral function, and their disorders thereof. It also demonstrates the historical development of the family, showing how the customary family structure had been gradually changing over the time, through which it was created; from the essentially monogamous family, resting on significant patriarchal controls, till its current modern family structures and forms of coexistence. The theoretical part also includes a description of building individual family relations and the significance of parental cohabitation for each child{\crq}s well-being. Due consideration has also been given to current problems that are affecting today{\crq}s Czech family. The practical part is then focused on the assessment, measured by the diagnostic Family Functionality Questionnaire by Dunovsky, which was performed in 25 families in the village of Velke Mezirici. The qualitative research method of questioning and the structured written questionnaire technique were employed with the aim of proving its validity and utility even nowadays, and thus trying to either confirm or refute the stipulated hypothesis that the Functionality Questionnaire by Dunovsky from 80´s needs to be updated. Obviously performing the goal of the work and confirming this hypothesis are sufficiently deep to provide the result of the research.
