My bachelor work treats of particular kinds of contraception. It enlarges each method, concerns with positive and negative aspects of contraception. This work involves also few information from history of contraception. The focal point is made up by quantitative research that is mainly focused on findings of most widely used contraceptional methods for women aged 17 to 25 years. It also investigates whether chosen method met women expectations and whether this method corresponded with their needs or if they had to interrupt usage of contraception.

Challenges for the Republic of Yemen in the 21st century.
Sadovenková, Ľubica ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Jeníček, Vladimír (referee)
The thesis aims to take a closer look at fundamental problematic areas of Yemeni society, carries out their deeper analysis and identifies the root causes. It deals specifically with human capital from quantitative(demographic trends) as well as qualitative perspective (level of human development) and analyses current political and security situation. The thesis focuses also on the natural resources -- water and oil, their depletion and estimated available amounts. Yemen will likely become the first country ever to run out of underground water resources. A combination of natural dispositions, economy orientation and technology level could possibly lead to the first humanitarian disaster of its kind. In terms of oil production, Yemen is a small exporter on the global level, however the public finance together with public services provision are on the sector highly depended.

Luštinec, Ondřej ; Sekera, Martin (referee) ; Wolák, Radim (advisor)
The diploma thesis "The Media Habits of Children Aged 5-6 Years" examines the status of the media in the lives of preschool children and focuses solely on five and six-year-old children. It summarizes some existing research concerning the relationship between children and the media and also discusses the findings of its investigation. The author conducted the research in three nursery schools trying to find the answer to two fundamental questions: What place does the media have in the lives of children aged 5-6 years? Are traditional media (television, radio, magazines, as well as books), or new media (computer, internet, cell phone, etc.) more popular for these children? The author's research draws from three sources: Firstly, structured interviews with children in nurseries and experiments carried out in the nursery schools. Secondly, a questionnaire survey of parents of these children. Finally, a questionnaire for nursery school teachers who are responsible for these children. The work provides quantitative conclusions where the author presents for example the popularity ranking of different types of media among children and describes the amount of time that children spend watching television, looking at the computer or listening to recorded music. It also makes qualitative conclusions where the author...

Nývltová, Marcela ; Kraus, Josef (referee) ; Kobesová, Alena (advisor)
In the first part of the thesis Objectification of disorders of the fine motor skills of the upper extremities in the patients with hereditary neuropathies there are mentioned some brief informations about characteristics, classifications, clinical symptoms, deformities and testing of upper extremities, rehabilitation and treatment of CMT neuropathy. The practical part of this thesis is concerned with testing and evaluating of strength, fine motor skills and sensation of the upper extremities in the patients with CMT. For the measurement of the hand strenght the dynamometry and the functional muscle test are used. The Jebsen-Taylor test, the Nine-Hole Peg Test and the examination of static and dynamic handgrip rating are used. For the examination of the sensation the Nottingham Sensory Assessment is used. CMT neuropathy score and Overall Neuropathy Disability Scaleare are used for the classification of disability. The aim of this thesis is the comparison of the muscle strength and the function of the dominant and non-dominant hand. Partial aim of thesis is detection of the correlations between tests. According to the results CMT disease leads to the muscle strenght weakness and to worsening of the fine motor skills mainly of the dominant upper extremity. This may be the result of overwork weakness. For...

Monitoring of selected coagulation parameters in pregnancy.
Nováková, Radka ; Křivčíková, Lucie (referee) ; Hronek, Miloslav (advisor)
In the group of 73 patients with recurrent spontaneous abortions, which they had a personal history of at least one thrombophilic disposition, either congenital acquired mutation of factor V Leiden in heterozygous form, or 20210 mutation in the gene of factor II in heterozygous form or mutation in the gene for MTHFR 677T or 1298C in heterozygous or homozygous form, or they had acquired thrombophilic disposition of antiphospholipid syndrome, or hyperhomocysteinemia, we studied the level-progress of blood coagulation parameters during the entire pregnancy. During this period, blood samples were taken from the patients on a regular basis. By some patients the parameters were examined even before pregnancy. Patients were getting nadroparin (Fraxiparine) in the 25th - 43rd week of pregnancy, alternatively enoxaparin (Clexane) who had showed allergic reaction. With the indirect detection method using a chromogenic substrate for the analyzer Sysmex CA-1500 (Sysmex-TOA) we evaluated functional activity of plasminogen, plasminogen activator inhibitor and α2-antiplazmin. With the direct non-competitive ELISA method, we found out a quantitative amount of antigen plasminogen tissue activator, plasminogen activator inhibitor and trombomodulin. We documented that the levels of trombomodulin and plasminogen...

TV moderator's image and its perception by young audience
Iskanderova, Tatiana ; Buriánek, Jiří (advisor) ; Duffková, Jana (referee) ; Havlík, Radomír (referee)
The main issue of our dissertation paper is perception of TV moderator's image by the young audience. The problematic is relatively new and under-researched. However, it could be mistaken to state, that earlier researchers did not perform the problematic of TV presentation. This topic has being researched by such scientists as: Alexej Leontjev, Svetla Cmejrková , Victor Meca etc. However, the above mentioned problematic has been researched from the viewpoint of TV presentation's structure and content, but not from the point of audience perception. By means of qualitative (qualitative content analyses of popular Czech and Kyrgyz TV - moderators Jan Kraus, Halina Pawlowká, Marek Eben, Libor Boucek, Andrej Malachov , Lolita Miljavskaja, Vladimír Molcanov etc.) representations and quantitative analyses (questionnaire survey with participation of 428 respondents) performed in Czech Republic and Kyrgyzstan, we demonstrate how the perception of the TV moderator image can be influenced by gender factor, professional and cultural backgrounds of audience. Moreover, by means of our analyses we have found out (identified) that besides the formal (visual) aspects of TV presentation (verbal and nonverbal behaviour), the significant role in the process of formation of young audience's opinion about the talk show moderator...

Láska, Martin ; Perič, Tomáš (referee) ; Vágner, Michal (advisor)
4 Abstract: The work is aimed at determining the relationships between selected kinetic tests and the level of basic skating skills. Kinetic tests will be selected on the basis of previous studies related to our research purpose and the requirements of standardization. The studied sample will be composed of children aged between 7 - 8 years (2nd and 3rd grade) from the hockey team HC Sparta Prague. Variable criteria are gaming activities of individuals (basic skating skills) that will be measured by using the tests of kinetic. Title: Relations between the motoric tests of coordination abilities and skills in skating, ice hockey players at the age of 7 to 8 years. Goals: The aim of the thesis is to determine the simultaneous validity of selected kinetic tests of coordination skills for individuals sport activities - the basic skating skills. Method: The thesis is conceived as an empirical observation type of quantitative research. Results: The Iowa - Brace test achieved the best explained variability of 26% for the variable criteria at skating forward. For other variable criteria, except for the forward cross - over, explained approximately 16% of variance. The test of the dynamic balance ability best explains the variation of the variable criteria of forward skating 17%. 5 While using multiple linear...

Title of thesis! Use of general and specific kinetic tests for prediction techniques of close combat. Objective Of thesis: My thesis deals with finding content validity and curriculal validity behind sampled kinetic tests for choice of human for the course of close combat. MethodI Thesis is working up like empiric kvantitative research of observation type and notice diachronic dependences between criteria variable and choice continuous independent variables. For analyses of relations and dependences among variables were used methods descriptive and inference statistics. Criteria variables were obtained with sum of evaluations close combat techniques such as composote score. Techniques were evaluations on the scale proposed by Vagner (2008). For preliminary of date analysis was used method of multiple correllations. Algorithm of all possible regressions was used for the propose of set variables and regression triplet was used to evaluate regrression model. Dates were processed with programs such as SPSS 15.0 for Windows, NCSS (Hintze, 2004), and QC Expert 2.7. Results! Specific kinetic tests reached higher curriculal validity to the acquirement of close vombat techiques than general kinetic tests. Every test proved the content validity as satisfactory. With algorithm of all possible regressions we...
