Gruberová, Nicole ; Chrz, Vladimír (advisor) ; Hrabec, Ondřej (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to examine the work experience of investigative journalists. Regarding the specificity and a demanding character of this job, the attention was aimed to perceieved risks and coping strategies of selected journalists. The theoretical part was divided into two sections. The first stemming from the theoretical background of the media studies. In the second, the themes emerging from the analysis, relating to the field of psychology, were described. The empirical part of the research is based on qualitative design, more specifically on the method The Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Within the research two in-depth interviews with two investigative journalists were made. Each of the respondents is dedicated to different type of investigative journalism and focuses primarily on different geographical area. Within the characteristics of IPA I concentrated on their subjective experience while the working process. Both of the respondents were asked to talk freely about what they considered important relating to my questions. In the analytical part I tried to intepret the answers regarding possible personality sources. Based on the findings I formed a proposal of the categories of these sources which within the living experience of the respondents seemed crucial for...

My attention focused on the ways the problems were formulated and what specific words may have either helped or distracted the children while the problem solving. The special attention was paid to contextual information which children use during the solving of word problems - its attractivness as well as the way it is served to them. The information about the childrens' school results and the difference between word problems from my set and the regular ones I gained from an interview with the school teacher of the children from my research group. The research showed that the difference between intuitive and analytical way of thinking had the most crucial impact on the strategies the children chose during the word problem solving. The occurence of non-standard context as a motivator was proved, however it was not so in the case of it in a role of a cognitive help. This impact was not proved surely. Concerning the length of the...
