Polcrová, Anna ; Kučera, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Žejglicová, Kristýna (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the topic of health literacy level in the Czech population and its association with sociodemographic and lifestyle factors. The aim was to describe this association in the stages of health information processing, which are the stages of finding, understanding, judging and application of health information. The data from the Czech modification of the HLS-EU survey from 2014 was used. Lower level of health literacy was associated with older age, lower level of education, as well as lower self-assessed social status at all stages of health information processing. Lower self- assessed health condition was also associated with lower level of health literacy, especially in the phases of understanding and application of health information. Regarding the lifestyle factors, the association was determined in case of physical activity, most notably in the phases of understanding and application of health information. The association was also determined in the case of body mass index, but only in phases understanding and judging. Differences in health literacy levels between smoking categories as well as between gender were not been determined. Regarding the difference between phases of health information processing, the judging of health information seems to be the most risk.

Increasing the literacy of girls and women to prevent breast cancer.
JEDLIČKOVÁ, Monika
This bachelor thesis deals with the prevention of breast cancer. It focuses especially on primary and secondary prevention of this disease. The aim of the work was to map the literacy of women and girls in the field of breast cancer prevention and subsequently to increase awareness of this prevention. To achieve these goals the empirical part of this bachelor thesis was elaborated with a qualitative research, for which the technique of in-depth interview with women and girls from 15 to 55 years not suffering from this disease was chosen. Obtained information was analyzed and categorized. The research showed what women and girls know about primary and secondary prevention. Women and girls consider genetic predisposition and stress to be the most important risk factors for cancer development in the mammary gland. The reason why interviewed women and girls are interested in a healthy lifestyle is not a disease prevention, but rather an appearance. Another finding was that only one woman carries out breast self-examination according to the correct procedure. Women and girls often reported that they were not taught by a doctor or nurse. In addition, many respondents did not even know that they had the possibility of genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations or that contributions to secondary breast cancer prevention were provided. A part of the research was a method of a true experiment where women and girls were given information about breast cancer prevention and illustration of self-examination. The results of the interviews after this experiment revealed that more than half of the respondents did not change their attitude, which may be for example due to age when young women and girls are not so interested in this issue. It is necessary to inform or educate the general public in the right way and to have pedagogical and professional knowledge in the field and to approach the public with a friendly atmosphere.
