Society's attitude towards children and adolescents with behavioral disorders
ŠÍMOVÁ, Michaela
The bachelor's thesis deals with society's attitude towards children and adolescents with behavioral disorders. The work is divided into a theoretical part and a practical part. In the theoretical part, the characteristics of behavioral disorders, their classification, and the manifestations of behavioral disorders in children and adolescents at the present time are presented. Attention was also paid to risky behavior, antisocial behavior, factors influencing behavioral disorders, etiology and prevention of behavioral disorders, and the system of care for children and adolescents with behavioral disorders is also mentioned here. The last chapter already deals with the company's attitude. The practical part was carried out using a quantitative survey, using the questionnaire method. A total of 160 respondents took part in the survey. Three objectives were chosen for the bachelor thesis. The first goal was to find out how today's society perceives children and adolescents with behavioral disorders, or the clientele of institutions of institutional education. The second goal was to find out how these individuals are treated, i.e. if they are perceived as problematic or dangerous, or if society perceives them in a different light. The third goal was to find out if they also see the causes of their problems and can perceive them positively. Based on the results, it was found that society perceives children and adolescents with behavioral disorders most often as someone who often and in large quantities consumes alcohol and smokes cigarettes. The majority of respondents perceive individuals with behavioral disorders as fixable, and more than half perceive them as someone who is to blame for their disorder. The thought of individuals with behavioral disorders in society evokes mixed feelings in most. More than half of the respondents perceive these individuals as problematic, but not dangerous. The research also showed that society believes that the greatest influence on the emergence of disordered behavior is an unsatisfactory family environment and relationships with peers. Society has largely agreed that the most important factor in preventing the development of behavioral disorders is a suitable family environment. The vast majority of those interviewed also believe that children and young people with behavioral disorders in our country do not receive enough care and are not taken care of.

The diagnosis of morally defective youth was closely related to the issue of correction and re-education of these persons. The very consequences of behavioral disorders have always had a serious impact on socielity itself. By establishing correctional facilities and the subsequent diagnosis of the inmates, the compeny accepted responsibility for the re-education of these persons. The diploma thesis has a comparative character with the aim of identifyng common or, on the contrary, different features in the diagnosis of youth. The theoretical part defines diagnostics in etopedic practice as we know it today. The classifications of behavioral disorders used today and at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries are described here.

Interspecific and intraspecific variation in gastrointestinal microbiota composition of parrots and its association with incidence of selected disorders
Černá, Kateřina ; Vinkler, Michal (advisor) ; Rychlík, Ivan (referee)
Captive parrots are susceptible to various digestive, metabolic, and behavioural disorders. Recent research in other vertebrates has suggested that these disorders can be linked to the gut microbiota, directly or through the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Although many commercial probiotic products intended for the use in parrots advertise beneficial effects on digestion and mental well- being, these statements are not sufficiently supported with publicly available scientific evidence, but probably rather based on the extrapolation of the knowledge of microbiota-gut-brain interactions in poultry, mice, and humans. However, there are substantial differences in the gastrointestinal tract morphology and gut microbiota composition between parrots and these model vertebrates. This thesis aimed to describe the interspecific and intraspecific variation in the gut microbiota composition of parrots and to link the variation in microbial communities to the incidence of eight selected behavioural and physiological disorders. The gut microbiota composition of 491 individuals from 85 parrot species was analysed using 16S rRNA metabarcoding. The host species, type of feed, and housing environment were identified as the main factors influencing the diversity and composition of the gut microbiota of parrots. A...

Risk taking behavior in children from foster care
SPILKOVÁ, Tereza
This Bachelor thesis deals with the problems of behavioral disorders, mainly in the context of problematic behaviors related to seeking individual identity. The thesis focuses on adolescents who were accepted into substitute family care and don't have access to the information about their past or biological parents. The aim of the theoretical part was to establish a connection between placement of the child into substitute family care and the development of problematic behavior during adolescence. The theory focused on the identification of specifics of the early stay in institutional state care and the effects of missing information about one's origin, in relation to behavioral disturbances in adolescents. The research component of the work was based on collecting quantitative data from deep conversations which were focused on the context of the development of behavioral disorders in an adolescent male, who grew up in an adoptive family and didn't have available information about his origin or biological family.

The use of Musical Instrument Djembe in Work with Clients of Educational Child Care Center
HAVLÍČKOVÁ, Petra
This bacelor thesis deals with the use of the musical instrument called the djembe by the clients of the Centre for Educational Care. Two goals were determined in this work. The first goal was to "Develop a proposal for an educational program of leisure activities using the djembe for the clients of the Centre for Educational Care" and the second goal was to "Map the possibilities of using the djembe in creating the leisure programs for the clients of the Centre of Educational Care". The thesis consists of the theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part includes four chapters. In addition to the characteristics of special education of children with behavioural disorders and its position in special pedagogy, the first chapter specifies behavioural disorders and the factors that influence their origin, and finally it describes the Centre for Educational Care. The second part is devoted to the characteristics of leisure activities in general and their function in influencing the clients with behavioural disorders. The topic of the third chapter is music therapy and its use in clients with behavioural disorders, including drumming. The fourth chapter introduces the djembe and the principles of drumming. The practical part describes the research methodology, actual implementation and the results of the research. The methods of qualitative research such as observation, interviews and secondary analysis of the documents were used as the research methods. The author prepared a 180 minute program for pilot verification. Based on this verification, a 60 minute program was compiled and tested with three different groups of clients. Following implementation of the 60 minute programs, it was found that the time allocation for these programs was insufficient. Therefore, the final 90 minute version was prepared and tested. A part of the thesis is the annex that contains suggestions for the relaxation parts of the djembe drumming program. In addition to the final 90 minute version of the program, the chapter with the results also includes conclusions from interviews with the employees of the Centre for Educational Care regarding further use of the djembe.
