Plachá, Lenka ; Květoňová, Lea (advisor) ; Šumníková, Pavlína (referee)
The diploma thesis on the topic "How sibling constellations can be affected by health disadvantage" deals with mapping the influence of living with a sibling with a disability and the effect of the family environment and relationships on intact siblings in the field of career choice and attitudes towards planning one's own parenthood. Furthermore, it also examines the possible influence of the gender of the intact sibling on the aforementioned areas. The aim of the research investigation was therefore to find out whether intact siblings in adulthood tend to work in helping professions, specifically whether living with a sibling with a disadvantage led them to choose a profession with persons with disabilities and also whether it influenced their attitude towards their own parenting. Qualitative research was used for the investigation, specifically the design elements of grounded theory. An in-depth, semi-structured interview with five respondents, adult siblings of persons with various types of health handicaps (autism spectrum disorders, Down's syndrome, cerebral palsy) was used to obtain data. The interviews were analyzed using open coding. The answers to the research questions are documented by verbatim citations of respondents' answers in individual categories.

Jelínková, Kamila ; Hulíková Tesárková, Klára (advisor) ; Kurtinová, Olga (referee)
Impacts of 1990's genocide on population of Rwanda and its awareness about family planning Abstract This thesis pursues the demographic development and the population's attitude to family planning in the state of Rwanda. The observed time period includes the second half of the 20th century to the present time. The first aim is the basic description of the demographic development of the state in relation to historical events. It's well known that wars have a negative impact on the population and economics of a state. The civil war broke out which brought big population losses in Rwanda in the 1990's. In this period the demographic revolution proceeded as it had in many other developing countries, which was important for the socioeconomic development of the state, and it was ceased as a consequence of the genocide. The Rwandan government at that time as one of the first governments began with the support of family planning programmes, which could have had a positive impact on the acceleration of the demographic transition. The second aim of the thesis is the determination whether the genocide had an impact on these governmental initiatives and stalled broadening of the awareness of family planning among the population this way, namely by means of media. The last aim of the thesis is the determination whether...

Health and psychosocial factors related to planned pregnancy of young women
BENEŠOVÁ, Simona
We live at a time when the media says we are leaving the responsible task of our lives (ie becoming a parent) for later age. However, in my bachelor thesis I was convinced that the ideas of today's young women (at least those I spoke with) about parenthood did not correspond to the media presentation. The aim of the work was to map health and psychosocial factors that influence young women in a parenthood planning. I realised that housing and economic conditions and looking for a suitable life partner to set up a family are the most common health and psychosocial factors, and many others which I present and compare in the results and the research section. Concerning the second aim, which is to "describe the attitudes of today's young women to maternity (parenthood)", I would say that they really diverse. It can be said that each woman is different and has different ideas and life experiences, and that is what affects her attitudes towards maternity. It was really interesting to examine these attitudes because every conversation made me always interested in each woman in a more complex way. The sense of my work is that it can serve as information material for specialists in the area of reproduction health and parenthood planning. But it can also help to young women who are either fully convinced that they are taking or rejecting parenthood, or they are not decided and are still arguing about it and are still looking for the right way to go. The work can also be used as inspiration for different types of couples, single mothers, mothers in later life, childless women or very young mothers.

CÁPOVÁ, Adéla
The scope of this dissertation focuses on issues related to family planning from the men´s point of view. Studies on fertility and family planning were focused overwhelmingly on women. The men´s participation in studies on family planning and reproduction is increasingly recognized as important; both men and women make important contributions to bringing children into life. Data of qualitative research were collected in interviews with 170 Czech men aged between 25 and 50. A grounded theory approach was used to analyze the data. The results show strong social pressure determining the ideal form of material and psychosocial background for offspring confronts current generation with very demanding decision-making on parenthood timing. Although men are in need of negotiations, the responsibility and practical decision-making is mainly left up to women. The inability of men to father their own genetic child has been identified as a main concern and an important infertility topic. However, the results have shown a low attention paid to the prevention of disorders of the men´s reproductive health.

Man´s Position In Family Planning
CÁPOVÁ, Adéla
The participation of men in family planning appears to be a suitable tool for the improvement of relationships between couples and their children. This thesis studies the attitudes of men towards family planning questions. The theoretical part of the thesis is divided into three main chapters: Family planning, The Male Indentity and the Social Roles of Men. The research methods which were chosen were based upon the collection of data. Twenty semi-structured interviews with early adult men were processed by means of grounded theory. Interview questions involved the definition of family planning and seven categories were created upon that basis: the association of the concept of family planning, images of family, attitudes towards the meaning of children in life, male attitudes regarding men{\crq}s role in child care, paternity leave, contraception as well as solutions regarding fertility disorders. The chosen methodology should assess the important social influences that play a role in the attitudes of men towards family planning and the roles of men in family planning. The setting of the conditions for the beginning of reproduction should be the result of negotiation within the couple. In spite of the willingness to change parenting roles, negotiation still leads to a traditional division of these parenting roles, where the woman is a care-giver and the man is the breadwinner. Gender sensitive upbringing is a good way to give support towards the responsibility within the family planning of men and women; it leads them in equal negotiation regarding questions of parenting. The results of this thesis is the creation of a new theory about the role of men in family planning and interested researchers are to be encouraged to verify its validity by continuing in this area of research.

THE INFLUENCE OF RELIGION ON METHODS OF VOLUNTARY PARENT.
HLOUCH, Vojtěch
I have chosen the subject of my thesis {--} The influence of religion on methods of voluntary parent. One of the main reasons is my own interest in these issues. I am Catholic and I wanted to reveal other Christians` attitude to contraception. My work is focused on two religions common in the Czech Republic. They are: Catholics of Roman-Catholic Church and Evangelics of the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethern. The aim of my work was to discover to what extent are certain religious groups successful in influencing their members when it comes to morals and what attitudes do their confessionists have in their private lives.
