Sport climbing of visually impaired and limitations related to their handicap
Sýkorová, Alžběta ; Vomáčko, Ladislav (advisor) ; Nováková, Lenka (referee)
This bachelor thesis concentrates on climbing activities of visual challenged, studies their abilities, perception of this activity and eventual limitation caused by this handicap. The goal of the thesis is to compare and evaluate abilities of visually impaired and non-handicapped climbers, recognize the impact of visual handicap on perception climbing activities and research, how much their abilities are influenced by this handicap. In my work on this topic I was helped by real handicapped climber as well as non-handicapped assistants, whose visual perception was temporarily restricted. In the theoretical part my thesis deals with general explanation of climbing activities and their development. It also concentrates on importance of visual perception, characteristic of sight damage and its influence on personality, movement and sport activities of people. The practical part is based mostly on experience of the visually handicapped climber during these climbing activities. Next I am focusing on abilities of non-sight handicapped climbers with temporarily limited visual perception. I am measuring the influence of temporary loss of sight on climbing performance and technique. In my work I describe practicing in different climbing skills due to sight loss and adaptation of the level of training...

Comparison of physical fitness and overall school performance in children at basic school
Sýkorová, Alžběta ; Šteffl, Michal (advisor) ; Chrudimský, Jan (referee)
Introduction: Physical fitness and academic achievement may constitute two interrelated variables. Students with higher physical fitness can achieve better learning outcomes in school. Objective: To determine whether students with better learning outcomes have also better outcomes in physical performance tests compared to students with low school achievement. Methods: 167 elementary and primary school students age 11.06 ± 2.4 years old (92 girls and 75 boys) participated in the comparative cross-sectional study. A special seven-item test battery was used to determine their level of physical fitness. Pupils were divided into two groups according to their learning outcomes statements. Results: Students with better learning outcomes had higher physical fitness in the individual tests in the most cases. Statistical analysis of standardized Z-score revealed a statistically significant better physical fitness (p ˂ 0.05) for all students with better learning outcomes in all age groups except the boys from the 2nd stage (p = 0.268). Conclusion: The results showed that students with better learning outcomes also had greater physical fitness. Keywords: academic achievement, physical fitness, elementary and primary school

Climbing of visually impaired people and limits produced by their disability.
Sýkorová, Alžběta ; Vomáčko, Ladislav (advisor) ; Nováková, Lenka (referee)
Title: Climbing of visually impaired people and limits produced by their disability. Goals: To point out critical moments during climbing of visually impaired climbers and evaluate degree of influence of missing sight to the entire climbing activity. Methods: Technical literature researching, questionnaire investigation, data analysis and graphical presentation of results. Results: People with visual impairment are able to perform climbing activities with the same equipment and in the similar range as sighted climbers. Absence of visual perception primarily places higher physical demands on climber and virtually prevents him from bouldering. Keywords: climber, climbing activities, visually impaired, visual perception, handicap
