Socially-Anormative Behaviour, Causes and Their Prevention in Selected Children´s Homes
KUCHAŘOVÁ, Eliška
Bachelor thesis deals with socially anormative behaviour, its causes and prevention in selected children's homes. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to identify the most common manifestations of socially anormative behaviour in children in children's homes, to describe the prevention of this behaviour and to propose possible solutions to socially anormative behaviour. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the basic concepts related to the family, its functions and other important socialization factors that influence children's behaviour. The theoretical part includes concepts related to childs relationships, significant emotional attachments. The bachelor thesis includes an explanation of the concepts of anormative behaviour. Last but not least, possible causes and prevention of socially anormative behaviour are presented in the thesis. In the practical part, a qualitative research strategy, semi-structured interview technique and questionnaire method were used. Based on the objective, the study and the literature, research questions were identified and enriched with additional questions. The research population consisted of 8 female workers from two unnamed children's homes in the Highlands. The semi-structured interview included 10 questions that helped me to clarify the aims and research questions of the undergraduate thesis. The research investigation revealed that the most common manifestations of socially anormative behaviour were lying, aggressive behaviour, and uncontrollable crying. In most cases it was stated there is a need for more cooperation with professionals, improved cooperation with the family, and informing the public about the consequences of social anormative behaviour. The communication partners tried to suggest possible solutions to socially anormative behaviour and also most often answered that it is necessary to work with the family at the beginning of the problem and also to financially support biological parents instead of foster parents, which would motivate mothers to take care of their own children.

Social- Anormative Behaviour of Pupils at Special Educational Institutions (Pertinently at Biagnostic Young Offenders´ Institutions)
VANČUROVÁ, Šárka
This bachelor thesis discusses socially abnormal behaviour of children in schools for children with disabilities and learning difficulties. Current times bring their share of problems. Disturbed interpersonal relationships may have an effect on relationships between society and schools or families. Abnormal behaviour of students is a frequently discussed topic due to the increase of children with problems with their behaviour. These problems manifest themselves as increased aggression, inciting arguments and cutting classes. Interpersonal relationships and interactions are important for the formation of a healthy personality. However, society often has a negative effect on children's development. The purpose of this thesis is to determine the various kinds of children's abnormal behaviour that teachers have the most difficulties with and how they deal with these conflicts. This work is divided into two main parts, a theoretical section and a practical section. The theoretical section discusses social factors that affect children's behaviour (family, classmates, school). Furthermore, this section is focused on personality transformations, which children pass throughout their school years and both normal and abnormal behaviour. Aggression, aggressiveness and bullying each have their own detailed section because in my research I have found these to be the most commonly occurring instances of abnormal behaviour. In this section I have also identified the main causes of these instances, the school facilities available and special learning tools. The practical section summarises the results of qualitative research. The data for this research was obtained through semi structured interviews. The interviews were conducted according to a prepared set of questions (appendix 1.) The interviewees were predominantly female, with seven women and one man. Research was conducted at primary schools for children with disabilities and learning difficulties in Pelhřimov, České Budějovice and Černovice. Interviews were carried out between May and June, 2014. The results section of this work contains the full interviews. These results provide information on what the most common incidents of abnormal behaviour are and how they are dealt with according to the teachers. Within the context of this research, it was discovered that the most common cases of socially abnormal behaviour in children involve aggressiveness, aggression and bullying. Many children of all ages have the tendency to break things and hurt others. Other instances that teachers mentioned in the interviews included abusive substances (alcohol, cannabis), lying, skiving, theft, sexual subtext and vulgar language. Teachers solve problems with children in various ways. All of the teachers' work with problematic children is highly individual. Two teachers agreed that problems at their school are resolved by a preventionist of socially pathological occurrences. Subsequently, if the preventionist is unable to resolve the issue, the school director discusses the problem with the student's parents. According to the teachers, communication with students and parents is important. They also state the importance of trust between students and teachers. Three teachers agreed on the importance of rules and regularity. Two teachers find that the best way is to use a calm approach. To have a calm discussion about what went wrong and why it cannot happen. This work concludes with the finding that teachers agree that the main causes of socially abnormal behaviour arise at home. Another important finding is that teachers mostly come into contact with aggressive behaviour at school. This bachelor thesis may be used by schools for children with disabilities. This work could be useful for parents of students with disabilities with social problems.
