Stropnická, Alžběta ; Šmídová, Olga (advisor) ; Tollarová, Blanka (referee)
This thesis is focused on the phenomenon of the social exclusion to the specifications of socially excluded children. My target was to answer these questions: How children threatened by social exclusion spend their free time? Are they satisfied with these ways and do they feel any limitations to spend a free time in different way? The theoretical part I focused on the theoretical definitions of the concept of social exclusion and other theoretical related concepts like integration, social inclusion or culture of poverty. Further I was dealing with definition of free time and in addition I described briefly a town called Neratovice where children participated in my research live, visit the school or do some leisure activities. For the research, I selected a quantitative research method - four semi-standardized interviews with children threatened by social exclusion at the age of 6-11 years. In addition children drew a time schedule of their common week day and weekend day. In practical part I analyzed the data from research, compare it with the data from other researches and suggest some recommendation based on these data in theoretical context published in theoretical part. Key words: social exclusion, integration, social inclusion, culture of poverty, Gypsy, free time, leisure activities, children

This part of the work finds what education methods repeat of our children and how has changed the education today against of past. It deals if grandparents affect their children and if these children perceive they are influence by parents.

Engaging pre-school children in research: design and evaluation of participatory methods
Lněnička, Ondřej ; Přívratský, Vladimír (advisor) ; Vančata, Václav (referee)
The modern world is focused on children. We care much more about the right regime of our children, about hygiene and other aspects of their daily routine. So it is not surprising that many scientists start their recent projects on or with children. Anthropology is not an exception. This study creates a smaller part of a larger sleep research study which aims to investigate whether two community based social marketing campaigns influence parents' view of pre-school children sleep requirements and healthy sleep practices. This work targets directly pre-school children and wants to determine if we are able to educate children about healthy and right sleeping habits through specifically performed game based activities. The main aim of this study is to find out which games are useful for enhancing the results of the supreme Medical Anthropology research. Secondary aim is to solve what we can generally do for a better engagement of children in our research.

Genetic study of obesity in children
Říhová, Aneta ; Daňková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Novota, Peter (referee)
Obesity is multifactorial dissease. Genetics factors participate in its origin of 40-70% (Barsh et al., 2000). Incidence of obesity is associated with a number of complications, which affect quality of life and abbreviate its length. It is projected in constantly younger age and its prevalence in the world grows. Even though several hundred genetics markers associated with obesity have been described, we still do not know all causes, which complicates efficiancy of treatment. Subject of this study was research of selected genes and their polymorphisms: FABP2 (rs1799883) and PLIN (rs1052700 and rs894160). The aim was to establish association between genotypes and antropometric and biochemical parameters related to obesity in group of 299 children and adolescents aged 7-18 years. Next goal was to establish whether these polymorphisms affect success of reduction therapy. SNP associations with antropometric and/or biochemical parameters were evaluated for boys and girls separately. Observed genotype frequencies between sex did not differ and they were in accordance with those explored in other populations. In rs1799883 polymorphism neither association with measured anthropometric and biochemical parameters nor effect on weight loss during reduction therapy have been found. The TT homozygote subjects of...

Kubcová, Šárka ; Bendl, Stanislav (advisor) ; Kraus, Blahoslav (referee) ; Linková, Marie (referee)
UNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE Pedagogická fakulta Katedra školní a sociální pedagogiky ABSTRAKT DISERTAČNÍ PRÁCE 2011 Mgr. et Mgr. Šárka Kubcová Název disertační práce: Hodnoty jako pedagogický problém Autor: Mgr. et Mgr. Šárka Kubcová Škola: Univerzita Karlova v Praze Fakulta: Pedagogická fakulta Školící pracoviště: Katedra školní a sociální pedagogiky Školitel: doc. PaedDr. Stanislav Bendl, Ph.D. Rok odevzdání práce: 2011 Klíčová slova: hodnoty, kvalita, důležitost, výchova, vzdělávání, vyučovací předmět, škola, vzdělávací systém, rodina, pedagogové, učitel, žáci, děti Abstrakt Disertační práce je zaměřena na hodnoty z pohledu pedagogiky. Je zaměřena na zjištění toho, zda mají hodnoty v dnešních školách své místo, zda jim je věnována ze strany učitelů pozornost, zda se učitelé snaží ovlivňovat své žáky ve smýšlení a vést je k poznání životních priorit. V práci se zamýšlíme nad otázkami síly vlivu rodiny na hodnotové smýšlení dětí a možnosti pedagogů ovlivnit své žáky. Ptáme se, zda si pedagogové myslí, že téma hodnot patří do pedagogiky a je-li vůbec v kompetenci školy a pedagogických pracovníků do takto soukromé oblasti zasahovat, a pokud ano, do jaké míry? Disertační práce je rozdělena na teoretickou a empirickou část. V empirické části se seznámíme s výsledky našeho výzkumu, ke kterému byla použita metoda...

Rousová, Jindřiška ; Potůček, Martin (advisor) ; Tumová, Anna (referee)
This thesis deals with the topic of low civic and political participation of children and youth in the Czech Republic. Participatory democracy theory and theory of civil society are used as starting values. The work deals mainly with organized civic and political participation of children and youth. It is shown, based on several international studies, that in comparison with other states the civic and political participation of Czech children and youth is of the significantly lower level. Area of youth participation falls within the national policy on youth and therefore this work describes basic public-policy documents that are related to the topic of participation of children and youth. In the frame of this work, analysis of the actors involved in the czech youth policy-making, was done. Possible ways of civic and political participation of children and young people, such as children and youth associations, school parliaments, political parties, academic senates, etc, are discussed as well The work identified the main causes of low civic and political participation of children and youth and also proposed specific measures which can help to increase the level of civic and political participation of children and youth in the Czech Republic.
