Nefinanční reporting komerčních bank
Křížková, Barbora
The thesis deals with non-financial reporting of commercial banks, which focuses on three main areas, namely environmental, social and governance. The statistical method of regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of selected independent variables from these areas on the financial performance of banks. Commercial banks from the Czech Republic and Germany for the year 2021 were selected for the study sample. The cost items of commercial banks, namely human resources and social investments were identified as statistically significant variables. Based on these results, recommendations for commercial banks were subsequently formulated and further suggestions for improvement were discussed.

Phylogeny of selected species groups of the genus Torymus (Hymenoptera: Torymidae)
Křížková, Barbora ; Janšta, Petr (advisor) ; Skuhrovec, Jiří (referee)
Chalcid wasps (Chalciodiodea) is superfamily within parasitic group of the order Hymenoptera. These insects attack other arthropods. My thesis is focused on phylogeny of selected species groups of the genus Torymus Dalman 1820, whose range of hosts includes mainly gall-forming insect as gall wasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) and gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae). Using genes 28D2 rDNA, COI and CytB, I constructed phylogenetic trees, which helped with discussing current view on classification of the genus and with inferring new findings about co-evolution with host organisms. Previously established morphological - ecological species groups were not supported by my analyses in many cases. Morphological traits seem to be convergent for many species. They often do not support observed monophyla as apomorphies. On the other hand, ecology and natural habitat of species was common for many branches in my cladograms. It was found out, that recent hosts are not probably original hosts of the group. Adaptive radiation in different habitats is likely to be the phenomenon that stands behind present-day host range of Torymus species. This process could have occurred after swapping to gall midges and gall wasps. Key words: Chalcidoidea, Torymus, phylogeny, parasitoid, host specifity, co-evolution

Effect of sporting back massage on the appearance and function of the muscular apparatus and skin
Křížková, Barbora ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Pádivý, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with sporting massage and its effects to the human body. There are used some of diagnostic methods verifies the effects of sporting back massage on a muscular function, a skin appearance, physiological functions of the organism and a subjective feeling of a relaxation. For example, there are methods such as a static and a dynamic examination of a spine or an oximeter and a caliper measurements compared to subjective feelings of relaxation in the back area. The methods were applied before and after the experiment, which was based on the series of sporting back massages. The results of the research are compared with other studies and speak in favor for the sporting massage as an effective means of regenerating for the human body as expected on the beginning of the research. The thesis can be used as an available information source for students of sports disciplines and the physically active public, and it can motivate them to include sporting massage into an everyday regeneration processes.

Birdwatchers: Amateur ornithologists
Křížková, Barbora ; Rynda, Ivan (advisor) ; Šaj, Petr (referee)
The thesis is devoted to amateur ornithologists and their role in citizen science. In it's theoretical part it focuses mainly on citizen science, its features, history and present of ornithology and characterization of amateur ornithologist. The empirical part uses methods of qualitative research, which is based on semi-structured interviews with professional and amateur ornithologists who participate or deal with projects of citizen science. The research problem is formulated as follows: Amateur ornithologists, their role and involvement in civil science and cooperation with professional ornithologists from the perspective of both amateur and professional ornithologists. It uses a thematic analysis to process the interviews on which several topics are based, for example: amateur ornithologist and its concept, relationships between amateur and professional ornithologists and their cooperation, relationship of amateur ornithologists to nature, their self-education, citizen science from the perspective of amateur and professional ornithologists, data and their quality. Research suggests that the difference between amateurs and professionals lies mainly in their relationship to science, which affects other aspects of their relationship to each other and to citizen science.
