Digital media and their effects on presence socially pathological phenomena on children.
PODROUŽKOVÁ, Nikola
Currently, digital media affect life of every individual. In many ways, this kind of media is taken as the support of our lives but they may encounter some risks when being used for a long time. This bachelor thesis demonstrates that digital media has a significant negative impact on individual behaviour, communication and social interactions in society. Inappropriate use of this type of media may lead to addiction, which can be compared to addiction to narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances. The human brain when under pressure does not develop and forms no memory traces significantly it affects learning. Insomnia, depression, obesity these are all negative consequences of human organism when overusing digital media. If children have to face these issues, their development is greatly threatened - both mentally and physically. No wonder then that the social workers have to deal with attacks or other deterrent cases where a child is affected by computer game or television series. It is proven that the time spent using digital media is still growing. People are less willing to work and solve problems in the real world and seek solace in the virtual one. Major phenomenon are also social networks where people are completely losing their privacy. Especially for children who are very gullible this area of media is totally inappropriate. Because of all these issues, the teachers or social workers in social services must deal with problems related to cyberbullying or other forms of ridicule on the internet. The aim of this work is to describe digital media and their impact on occurrence of social pathological phenomena in children and to emphasize digital media as one of the very current topic the society should be speaking about especially with experts. Using these media has a huge impact on youth and therefore there are many new cases when the clients are seeking help because of their problems with addiction on digital media or because of the problems which are caused by them. In the bachelor thesis the data are collected in the form of quantitative research survey which took place in the Elementary School Sídliště Vlašim. Multivariate data from the questionnaires were processed by correspondence analysis (CCA) in program Canoco. Statistical results showed that both hypothesis were supported gender of a child is related to a certain type of activities on the internet and with increasing age also grow the time spent using the internet for fun (playing PC games) in both genders. Experts demonstrate the negative impact of excessive use of digital media. At present, we should raise awareness among users of media about the possible risks and expand preventative measures to precede the digital addiction.

Sexting as a form of cyberbullying in adolescence
BICENCOVÁ, Martina
This thesis is focused on problems of the sexting as a form of cyber-bullying in adolescent children. The sexting is a new phenomenon that arose from two English words "sex" and "text". This is about sending nude photos by a mobile phone or via an internet. The Czech street work association defines sexting as: "electronic dissemination of text messages, your own photos or your own videos with sexual content, occurs in the environment of virtual electronic media the internet in particular. Between platforms that allow the dissemination of these materials include nowadays in particular social networks-Facebook, Myspace, Libimseti.cz or digital photo storage Rajce.cz." (43) Mostly girls or boys to take and send a photo or video to an opposite sex, to get their attention. However, do not realize that photographs can be send on and stop it can be very difficult. These children eventually adolescents become victims of cyber-bullying which is defined by Price and Dalgleish as: "the collective designation forms of bulling through electronic media such as the internet and mobile phones, which are used to aggressive and international damage to the users of media. As well as traditional bullying and cyberbullying involves recurring behavior and disparity of power between the aggressor and the victim." (15, s. 20). Also in the Bachelor thesis I limit the teen age as: "Teenage period includes the age between the 11th and the 15th year, therefore, compulsory school attendance on the second level. It is often referred to as puberty or pubescence." (33, s. 27). This work is divided into a theoretical part and a research part. The main aim of the practical part the most it is to determine whether it met the teenage children of the sexting, which was a form of cyber-bullying. A further aim is also to find out in which age groups, adolescents, is the most sexing appears. The practical part is processed by a method of quantitative research. Those that meet the parameters were included in the draw. After that I called the order in selected schools. In the case of a refusal, I continued further in the draw until I received the required number of schools, which then conducted data collection using printed questionnaires in classrooms on the 2nd level of primary schools. Finally, there were selected 9 elementary schools in the district České Budějovice. The primary schools were divided into 3 groups based on where they were located: City, town, village. The questionnaire was fulfilled by 685 respondents. The evaluation of results was done in the STATA software 12. Method of verification of hypotheses ran in a Chi-trimester test of a good match. H1: Teenagers are confronted also with sexting, which is a form of a Cyber -bullying related and there was focused research questions No. 5: Have you ever taken a photo or a record yourself partially or completely undressed? 9. Have you ever taken a photo or record someone partially or totally stripped (naked)? 11. Have someone send you a material, where he (she) is partially or completely stripped? 13. Were you trying to embarrass someone by this kind of material? Have you share photos or videos of your friends where they were partially undressed sometimes? This hypothesis has been confirmed. H2: Teenagers, who sexting are aware of a less risk than children who do not sexting. For this hypothesis include the question No. 18. Are you aware of the risk, what brings the sending of photos or videos over the internet? I rejected this hypothesis right at the beginning, since the research has shown that the children do not practise sexting such an extent to determine the statistical significance of these two variables. H3: Pupils of the 9th classes are practising sexting more that pupils of the 6th classes. The research questions related to the H3 were: the 2nd: Do you visit the 6th, the 7th, the 8th, the 9th class? This hypothesis has been confirmed.
