Besides, two almost identical survey researches were used to realize the quantitative research. This questionnaire was presented to nurses and lay public. Four hypotheses were created to study quantitative research: 1: The perception of the nursing profession in the South Bohemian Region differs depending on age. 2.

Based on the research we found out that the profession of nursing in the South Bohemian Region is perceived very positively. Furthermore, we discovered that the public image of nurses does not depend on gender. On the other hand personal experience with nursing does have an influence on the prestige of the nursing profession.

Štraubová, Kateřina ; Marsová, Jana (advisor) ; Vidovičová, Helena (referee)
This paper discusses the influence of the social and financial awards on the self-assessment of nurses. In the theoretical part I deal with explanation of terms as self-konception, self-respect, prestige and social status of the profession. Since the prestige of the profession influences besides other things historical development of professions, I have been also interested in the history of nursing. To be able to measure the economic effects of self-reflection of the nurses, I compared the amount of the financial evaluation of selected professional groups in the country. In the practical part I have found out nurses' opinion to view their financial assessment with regard to educational achievement and job description and their opinion on membership in a particular social group. I also wonder, as a general nurse assesses the media image of their profession and what is most troubling to him. I also tried to determine what is the most common motivation for general nurses to remain in their profession.
