Bošková, Mariana ; Kurtinová, Olga (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
Alternative family forms in Czechia in the 21st century Abstract The aim of the thesis is to evaluate the development of alternative family forms in Czechia in the 21st century. These forms seem to be increasingly popular and more represented within households. The largest part of the research is devoted to unmarried cohabiting households. The characteristics of persons in these forms of cohabitation are presented in terms of their age, highest level of education, religion, and these households are also analysed according to the presence of children and their financial situation. The data are taken from the EU-SILC and ESS surveys from years 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018 and the year 2011 is also added with data from the Czech population and household census. The grow index is included to assess the evolution between years and a logistic regression for the analysis of opinions on unmarried cohabitation as well. Households of unmarried cohabiting partners and singles persons are becoming increasingly popular. The increase is particularly evident in the younger age groups. Key words: cohabitations, same sex unions, de facto partnerships, singles, EU-SILC, ESS, households, Czechia

Infant and childhood mortality in Prague in the second half of the 19th centtury
Konrádová, Jitka ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
The objective of this study is an analysis of infant and child mortality in Prague in the second half of the 19th century. The analysis is based on the dataset obtained from church register of selected parishes in Prague and from Austrian statistics. This study is also related to demographic theories and historical context. The death of infants and children under the age of five and infant mortality rate are analysed in dependence on sex, age and legitimacy of children. The causes of death and the seasonal trends of mortality are studied, too. The results of analysis approve the considerable decline of infant and child mortality rates in Prague and also in singles parishes, but intensity of this decline is different. Comparative analysis demonstrates that this decline occurred quite earlier and with higher acceleration in Prague compared to Czech countryside. This development and also the differences within the parishes are attached to faster expansion, advancement and modernisation of Prague (especially of some districts) in the period of global revolution. Among these changes the phenomenal progression of medical science was the main feature and its great importance to the mortality decrease is incontestable. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Jiroušová, Martina ; Rychtaříková, Jitka (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
Seasonal profile of nuptiality, natality and mortality in the Czech republic and international comparison Abstract The aim of this thesis is to capture changes in seasonality of nuptiality, natality and mortality in the Czech Republic and the factors that influence the seasonality. Despite the fact that these changes have been monitored since the 16th (nuptiality) and the 17th century (natality and mortality), the thesis focuses on the period from 1950s to 2012. Czech Republic is then compared with six other countries, with shorter reference period (2005-2012). Seasonal profile is represented by seasonal indexes and their variability is analyzed using the coefficient of variation. Seasonality of marriages was, especially in the 1950s, characterized by the accumulation of marriages in the last months of the year and in April, with later shift to the summer. The minimum was at the beginning of the period in the first quarter of the year and in May and later joined them low values in November and December. Due to superstitions about unhappy marriages, May was a month with a very low seasonal index throughout the period. The highest values of seasonal indexes of live births used to occur in the first half of the year and then shifted, as in the case of weddings, to the summer months. The minimum values did not...

Cohabitations: trends and patterns
Ptáčková, Kateřina ; Rychtaříková, Jitka (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
This work deals with assessing the trends and patterns of cohabitation in European countries. On the basis of in depth analysis of available data, the Czech Republic might be classified among countries with similar trends and patterns of cohabitation. Foreign scientific literature, international surveys, censuses and population registers were used as the source information. This study also addresses family policy and legal regulations, which govern the relationships of cohabitation, have an impact on the context of cohabitation formation and thus create the conditions in which couples decide whether to marry or not. Cohabitations is a complex and complicated phenomenon so that it is not quite possible to come to definite conclusions. The low frequency of cohabitation and high proportion of divorced cohabitants, ranks the Czech Republic into countries of central and eastern Europe. However, the cohabitation structured according to the highest level of education or other indicators is in this group wholly different. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Boušová, Marie ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
Changes in the marital status in the age group from 15 to 59 years in the Czech Republic after 1930 Abstract The aim of this thesis is to analyze the changes in population structure according to the individual marital statuses. For this analysis sex-specific and age-specific nuptuality rates and multistate life tables were use, in order to be able to describe transitions between the individual marital statuses. In the first part of this thesis the data sources and the methods of creating the transversal increment- decrement life tables were described. Following chapters deal with the historical development of the Czech Republic population since the year 1930 and the trends of nuptuality, divorce and mortality. Second part is dedicated to the analysis of the transitions between the individual marital statuses. The findings of this thesis conclude that people in the individual marital states tend to react similarly to the historical events in Czech Republic, unless some events are purposefully aiming to influence only a part of the population. Key words: nuptuality rate, divorce rate, mortality rate, marital status, multistate demography, transversal increment-decrement life tables, Czech Republic

Demographic and social structure of population in Beroun region in the half of the 17th century
Vaňková, Václava ; Fialová, Ludmila (advisor) ; Bartoňová, Dagmar (referee)
The aim of this Master thesis is to describe demographic and social structure of Beroun region in the half of the 17th century. The thesis is based on the data from the Register of Religion Affiliation from 1651, which was published by the National Chancery. The work is divided into two parts; in the first part there is a description of the Beroun region in the half of 17th century and the sources and methods used in the work are commented there. The second part contains analytic chapters such as demographic structure of the population, families and household structure and also the social structure of the population. Special attention is paid to the estimates of the population which was not included in the source, especially children from 0 to 13 years. The analyses confirmed that population in the half of the 17th century had progressive demographic structure, which was, however, deformed as a result of the previous war years (especially as a consequence of the plague epidemics). The important part of the thesis is the comparison with other regions of Bohemia in the same period. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
