The implementation of sleep education was conducted between December 2023 and February 2024 in selected high schools. The research included the administration of standardized methods at two times, namely before sleep education and after sleep education. The instruments chosen for this research were the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), and the World Health Organization Well-Being Scale (WHO-5). The variables were given by the final scores from the two measurements of three scales mentioned above, which were then compared using appropriate statistical methods. At the same time, the research focused on the comparison of the given variables between the group of students who received sleep education and the group of students who did not receive any education.

The results of the study suggest that despite efforts to implement sleep education, there was no significant improvement in sleep quality among students. At the same time, the results did not show better sleep quality and...

Rejmanová, Lucie ; Kucharská, Anna (advisor) ; Švamberk Šauerová, Markéta (referee)
This master thesis examines student dropouts from higher education in relation to self-efficacy. Student dropouts are currently a major problem domestically and around the world. Most dropouts from universities occur in the very first year of study. The aim of this master thesis was to find out the causes of dropouts from universities and also whether they are related to the level of self- efficacy. The master thesis also includes experiences with career counselling. To explore this issue, I used a questionnaire survey with several parts (a general part, a part related to early departures and a part related to the level of general and academic self-efficacy) in the practical part of my master thesis. The research design of my thesis is mainly quantitative, only the answers to the open- ended questions were qualitatively evaluated (those related to the reasons for early dropouts and experiences with career counselling). The research results showed that early departures are related to the level of general self-efficacy. In the results there are described in more detail the reasons for dropouts (Covid-19, health, family reasons, difficulty of studies, future employment, studying the wrong field, negative experiences, etc.) and experiences with career counselling, which were unfortunately rather...
