Králíková, Lucie ; Junková, Vendula (referee) ; Rezková, Vlasta (referee)
9 ABSTRACT One of a child's basic psychological needs is the need for a stabile emotional bond. The theses researches if the children from private children's home Radost are able to establish such specific emotional bonds to the carers employed there. The Czech Radost children's home follows principles and guidelines established by a well know German children's home. This German facility places emphasis on nurturing the emotional bonds of children, and as such differs considerably from classic state institutions. The underlying assumption is that given the right conditions and support, children have a high chance to create specific emotional bonds. In order to gain the necessary data it was chosen the method of qualitative evaluation with participant observation as the prevailing research strategy. The data are triangulated with some other methods including: semi-structured interviews, analysis of file documentation and a modified version "Test of Family Relationships" (Kovařík, 1993). The data analysis is enriched with knowledge and experiences from two other children's homes abroad, where saturation of psychological needs of children is a priority (Danish and German model). The research is a continuation of the diploma theses (Zemánková, 2003), where the question of specific emotional bonds was examined...

Bachelor thesis "Aspiration of Children from Children's Homes" discusses family plans and dreams of children from children's homes, who don't live in family enviroment, which is one of the main socialization agencies and also origin of ideas of future life. Main purpuse of this thesis is to ilustrate differences between children from childrens homes and children from families. Survey of children in children's home above 15 years old was made for this thesis (N=127). Survey focuses on four main areas of family life: relationships, marriage, parenthood and distribution of roles in family. Other three datasets from surveys of future plans of childrens from families were analyzed. Frequency and correlations analysis were used and results of these two groups were compared together. It was revealed that plans of children from children's homes and children from families varies. Results show that children from children's homes are less inclined to future family life. There was also no evidence of linkage between age at which children were institutionalized and their future family plans.
