Training in cognitive functions for adults with psychotic disorders
Kovaříková, Julie ; Dvořáková, Miroslava (advisor) ; Mühlpachr, Pavel (referee)
This work focuses on the training in cognitive functions for adults with psychotic disorders and it deals with this topic, also known as cognitive remediation therapy (CRT), within the framework of andragogy. The aim of this work is to examine the process of CRT for adults with psychotic disorders and the potential contributions for the participants. The first part presents the theoretical foundations related to psychotic disorders and the deficit of cognitive functions, as well as the particularities of CRT, such as different attitudes to the training, its didactic perspective and its effect. The empirical part surveys what contributions CRT had for the participants and whether it was effective. This part describes a qualitative inquiry using a data analysis based on interviews with participants in CRT for adults with psychotic disorders who underwent the training in the Green Doors facility, the Modré dveře therapeutic centre or the Psychiatric Centre Prague. The assessment of the empiric survey focuses on the recommendations that could help achieve better results in CRT and that could involve specialists from the field of adult education in the training. Keywords: training, cognitive functions, deficit, psychotic disorders, special andragog

Martin Vraný Abstract: This work addresses the topic of emotion recognition from facial expressions. The theoretical part starts with general information about emotions; the most elaborated part, however, concerns basic emotions and their manifestation. One part of this work is also about the ability to recognize emotions, its deficits, and its methods of measurement. The theoretical part is closed by the topic of emotional intelligence, which is the overarching element. The empirical part focuses on the differences in the ability to recognize emotions. The results show that women are better in emotion recognition than men, similarly psychologists and coaches, unlike patients with a psychotic disorder whose results are sub- normal. The results also suggest the tendency of positive correlation between the level of education and the coveted ability - with increasing education the ability to recognize emotion expressions is improved. Subtle emotions are recognized with more difficulties in the test, but emotions displayed by out-group members are, against the expectations, better recognized. The results are unable to confirm...
