Plachá, Jana ; Šípek, Jiří (advisor) ; Čáp, David (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to find out how do adolescents using addictive substances cope with everyday stress and whether their answers differ from the ordinary population of their peers. For this purpose, the Czech version of Rosenzweig's picture frustration test (C-W) was used. The theoretical part summarizes our knowledge about frustration and possible manifestations of reactions to frustrationand it places this phenomenon into a terminological and theoretical framework. It also deals with adolescence from the point of view of potential stress situations and presents possible adolescents' responses to these circumstances. Finally, this part describes possible causes and manifestations of addiction in adolescents. The aim of the practical part is to present how the responses of 40 adolescent users of psychoactive substances to common frustrating situations compare with ones of the normal peer population. The results of the survey from the point of view of the direction of aggression show that drug-using adolescents most often blame their social surrounding for the frustrating situation or expect a solution to come from their surrounding. More often they choose a self-accusatory reaction rather than trying to get over the frustration or to avoid aggression. From the point of view of the...

Relationship between the use of alcohol and tobacco and subjective well-being among 6th graders
Černá, Michala ; Voňková, Hana (advisor) ; Gabrhelík, Roman (referee)
Mental health, integral part of the general health, has recently been increasingly associated with a term well-being. An alarming problem which occurs not only in Czech society is a high degree of early use of legal addictive substances (alcohol and tobacco) among children. This thesis provides an insight into the issue of the use of addictive substances by children in the context of subjective perception of personal well-being. Finding the prevalence of the use of these substances among children enabled the identification of links between the use and several factors which altogether represent subjective well-being. Satisfaction with oneself has proved insignificant in relation to substance abuse. Furthermore, it was found that children can compensate low self-esteem for alcohol. Based on these data using logistic regression there was designed a mathematical model which allows, while knowing the factors of personal well-being, the prediction of the probability of the use of tobacco and alcohol among children. Key words: prevention, substance abuse, well-being, alcohol, tobacco, logistic regression

The purpose of my thesis is to analyse crime relating to the abuse of addictive substances. This is a very broad topic that affects many non-legal areas such as health care or economy. It is also associated with many criminological questions. However, in my thesis I focused on drug offences stated in the Czech Criminal Code. This topic was already processed several times, yet it still remains topical since the drug scene is constantly evolving, especially thanks to advanced technologies. The thesis is composed of seven chapters and the first chapter is aimed on defining the basic terms, which I consider crucial for the understanding of the issue. In this chapter I also define the basic terminology used in the thesis. The next chapter deals with the history of the legal regulation of the abuse of addictive non-alcoholic substances. I focused especially on the national legislation and to the limited extent also on international treaties. The first act I mentioned is "Břetislav decrees" from 1039 and gradually I'm getting to the current Criminal Code. One part of the chapter is devoted to the previous Criminal Code no. 140/1961 Coll. The merit of my thesis is contained in the chapters 3 - 7. Each chapter describes one of the drug offences, which are found in the articles 283 - 287 of the Criminal Code....
