Theory of Planned Behavior and Counterproductive Work Behavior
Trojanová, Mariana ; Preiss, Marek (advisor) ; Ševčíková, Marcela (referee)
This master thesis aims to explore and predict counterproductive work behavior (CWB) targeted to the employer within a framework of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The question is examined by quantitative questionnaire survey, assessing attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, intention and actual behavior. The aim of this study is to verify the psychometric properties of a non-standardized questionnaire designed in the theoretical framework of the Theory of Planned Behavior, analysis of functionality of the proposed model and the proposal of its possible improvements to be given. Unrepresentative sample (n = 71 in the first phase of research, n = 41 in the second phase) consists of working adults with a work history of at least one year. The proposed model of the Theory of Planned Behavior is analyzed using the method of multiple linear regression analysis, which shows a statistically significant relationship between the dependent variable and some of the independent variables in the first phase of the research. In the second phase, no significant relationships between variables are found. Since the psychometric properties of the measuring instrument are not satisfactory, the item analysis using principal component analysis is conducted, which identifies some problematic...

PhDr. Marek Preiss, Ph.D. Konzultant: PhDr. et PaedDr. Pavel Harsa, Ph.D. et Ph.D. Praha, 2021 ABSTRACT Integrity is a psychological and philosophical construct, which is closely related to the concepts of moral psychology. In different psychological disciplines it is often associated with related constructs including conscientiousness, virtue, honesty or emotional stability. In Czech psychological and psychiatric practice integrity is a variable, which is commonly not measured and evaluated as a personal asset, mainly due to the fact that there is a lack of proper instruments, which would be accessible to clinicians or researchers. The main goal of this dissertation thesis was to introduce newly developed integrity test, which is applicable in clinical and in non-clinical settings. Thus, this thesis summarizes the...

Mobbing in the work environment
PIXA, David
The thesis deals with the phenomenon of psychological terror in the work environment and offers a compact view of this widespread social problem. The focus of the empirical research was quantitative survey aimed to discover the approximate dispositions of bullying in Czech workplaces. Data were gathered from a non-random convenience sample (N = 306; F = 66.0%) of anonymous workers through a modified online version of the Negative Acts Questionnaire (NAQ-R). According to the self-labelling approach, 16.0% of the respondents had been (4.9% regularly; 11.1% occasionally) targets of workplace bullying during the past 6 months. The complementary behavioural method detected that 21.9% (11.4%) of the respondents had been subjected to at least one (two) of the negative acts on a weekly basis. The predominantly experienced negative acts had been work-related. The most prevalent source of workplace bullying was reported to be superiors (73.5%). There was no significant difference between males and females or the public and private sectors.
