Analysis of fertility postponement and recuperation in Czechia based on the cohort approach
Ženíšková, Aneta ; Kocourková, Jiřina (advisor) ; Fialová, Ludmila (referee)
The main objective of this work is a cohort analysis of postponement and recuperation of fertility in the Czech Republic after 1960. Two methods were used for this purpose - basic benchmark model and relational model. The essence of the basic benchmark model is comparison of cohort cumulative fertility deviations between chosen benchmark cohort of women and other cohorts. The relational model is based on the cohort cumulative fertility deviations of cohorts from the chosen cohort related to the schedule of national standard deviations. The significant shifts in the timing of childbearing were revealed. While the first order is characterized by early fertility decline and subsequent significant fertility recuperation, the second order is characterized by a further decrease in fertility with slight recuperation. However, fertility of third and higher order continues to decline and has been found out. practically no recuperation. The second part of this work describes the respondents' answers to questions about timing of parenting. The main findings are that decisions about parenting is most influenced by whether respondents have a suitable partner, private housing and are financially secure. Most respondents postpone the birth of their first child due to the absence of a suitable partner, resp....

Barešová, Tereza ; Burcin, Boris (advisor) ; Ženíšková, Aneta (referee)
International comparative analysis of suicide mortality Abstract The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to analyze the development of suicide mortality in international context between 2000-2015. At the beginning, the thesis resumes historical development of research into this cause of death and scientific approaches by which can be suicide examined. It then describes the main risk factors of suicide and identifies the most vulnerable groups of people. The available data are research mainly through standardized suicide mortality rates in total and in selected age groups. This thesis analyzes suicide in 47 countries (36 European, 7 Asian, 1 African and Canada, Australia and New Zealand). It has been found that eastern European countries have the highest suicide mortality rates. At the same time, these countries recorded the most significant decline in these rates between 2000-2015. In the long term, the lowest suicide rates are characterized by the countries of southern Europe. The hypothesis of male mortality excess was confirmed in all analyzed countries. This thesis also confirmed the assumption that the intensity of suicide mortality rate increases in direct proportion to age in all analyzed countries (except for Finnish, Norwegian, Canadian and Australian women). Keywords: mortality, suicidal tendency,...

Fertility development in selected European countries considering the timing effect from the second half of the 20th century to the present
Ženíšková, Aneta ; Kurtinová, Olga (advisor) ; Šťastná, Anna (referee)
Fertility development in selected European countries considering the timing effect from the second half of the 20th century to the present The main objective of this thesis is to evaluate the influence of the timing effect on the mean age of mothers at childbirth in the context of fertility development in selected European countries from the second half of the 20th century to the present. Another objective is to adjust the total fertility rate to the timing effect and consequently demonstrated how changes in fertility timing affect this period measure in selected countries at a given time fame. The last objective is an evaluation of the views of respondents from studied countries from the sample survey of the European Social Survey for the years 2004 and 2010 to the questions relating to the reconciliation of work and family as one of the factors affecting the timing of fertility. On the basis of Esping-Andersen's typology of welfare states, following states are selected: Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland and Ukraine. Changes of the mean age of mothers at childbirth are given not only by real changes in the timing of childbearing (the timing effect), but also by changes in the childbearing according to the birth order (the effect of fertility structure). The method of decomposition was used for...
