The comparison of communication skills of nurses with a deathward client in hospitals and hospice homes.
ADAMCOVÁ, Lenka
This Bachelor's work examines nurses' skills in communicating with terminally ill patients in hospital and hospice facilities. The aim of this work is to present a detailed overview of the communication skills of nurses treating dying patients in hospital and hospice facilities as well as to identify what approaches nurses working in hospital and hospice facilities are not taking when treating terminally ill patients and to identify the specific issues that nurses must deal with when treating terminally ill patients in hospital facilities. A method of quantitative research was used to obtain findings for this Bachelor's work, and questionnaires were used to collect data. The addressed respondents were medical staff treating patients at the Central Military Hospital in Prague as well as at the St. Agnes of Bohemia Hospice in Červený Kostelec, the St. Lazarus Hospice in Plzeň and the Hospice on the Holy Little Hill in Olomouc. A total of 129 questionnaires were distributed, and only 33 were not returned. Therefore, 74% of the respondents did complete and return the questionnaires. However, 12 questionnaires were excluded for being incomplete. A total of 85 questionnaires, 66% of the original number of questionnaires distributed, were used to process the data. Therefore, the answers of 85 respondents were used for the research. Four hypotheses were established: 1. The methods and the level of communication of nurses caring for terminally ill patients are influenced by education and awareness {--} this was confirmed; 2. The process of caring for terminally ill patients depends on the conditions for providing comprehensive treatment care in hospital departments and in hospital facilities {--} this was confirmed; 3. Nurses in hospital facilities lack sufficient education for communication with terminally ill patients, and the conditions for providing comprehensive care are insufficient as well {--} this was confirmed; 4. Nurses in hospice facilities are familiar with communication techniques and regularly use them when accompanying dying patients {--} this was confirmed. The results of the research will be provided to employees in management positions in the examined hospital facilities and two hospices in order to improve the quality of the care provided to terminally ill patients.

An attitude of single young women to an institution of the marriage and the parenthood
CIPÍNOVÁ, Dagmar
The issue of marriage and partnership seems to be a rather hot topic considering the number of trial marriages, incomplete families or postponed parenthoods. My baccalaureate work deals with a research in the views and attitudes of nowaday´s young single women to the issues of marriage and parenthood. The information for my baccalaureate work has been acquired using content analysis of secondary data. Quantitative research has been selected for the monitoring of attitudes related to the work´s objectives as well as for the purposes of hypotheses testing. The data collection has been based on the method of interview and the questionnaire technique, the questionnaires containing 26 questions each. In total, one-hundred and forty questionnaires (100 %) have been distributed, one-hundred and five of them (75 %) being fully completed and usable for the research purposes. The questionnaire research was carried out in February and March 2009. The questionnaires were anonymous, pre-tested on a sample of respondents within a preliminary research. The questionnaire technique was designed in order to obtain primary data on the target population selected by random choice among young single women living in the District of České Budějovice, the only precondition being that the research was focussed exclusively on single and childless women. Two of the three determined hypotheses could not be confirmed. The research results have shown that the majority of young women wish to live and obviously will live in a marriage, even if after the lapse of a certain period of trial marriage. Concluding an official marriage or entering into the trial marriage relationship are not predominantly dependent of the level of the education achieved, whereas the length of studies or professional training may play a certain role. As far as starting a family is concerned, marriage does not pose an essential pre-condition of triggering the wish in a young woman to have a baby. The research has further confirmed the current trend of postponing marriages into a higher age as well as the rising age of women giving birth to their first baby. The results of the presented work reflect the current situation in the attitudes of young single women to the institutions of marriage and parenthood. They present a valuable source of information related to family planning and reproductive behaviour. They may also serve for the purposes of further studies in this field or may be applied as study material within programmes focussed on the given issue.

Social environement as a factor influencing availability of information about pregnancy and childbirth
MIKOVÁ, Radka
This bachelor work investigates the problems of influence of social environment on the awareness of pregnancy and birth. The primary aim of this work is to map out the demand for information, its availability and the most commonly used resources of information. The next aim is to analyse the obtained data from the perspective of age, education and marital status. The results of the research showed a significant influence of social environment on awareness of pregnancy and birth. The relationship of age, education and marital status on the level of awareness has been proven. Information related to child birth is greatly available. This is to a great extent also thanks to media that balance out the limited demand for information in certain age and education categories.

The poverty in opinions of young people
ČERNÁ, Jana
The poverty is a very comprehensive and complicated concept and it is considered to be behind one of the most serious problems of the globalized world today. Poverty can be conceptualized as an expression of extreme disparity because it distances specific sections of the population not only from the rich, but also from the rest of the population. At present, world disparity and poverty continue to grow and the split between wealth and poverty grows both globally and on a national scale. This thesis is divided into two parts {--} theoretical and practical. The theoretical part limits itself to looking at basic terms e.g. poverty from a global perspective, types of poverty, its monitoring and measurement, disparity, unemployment, population groups at risk of poverty and social exclusion. The influence of social transfers in connection with poverty is also highlighted in the work. On the basis of the defined hypothesis other marginally mentioned key topics are included. These concern life values and the perceptions of young people, as well as the discrepancy between men and women in the biological, psychological and social fields. The thrust of the thesis was to ascertain the perception of poverty in the minds of young people. The research was carried out at selected schools through the use of anonymous questionnaires. Each questionnaire contained ten questions. The results of the research are presented in the chapter "Results" which forms the practical part of the thesis.

The last hypothesis assumes that Zambian children are interested in education and that why they think the project is good for their future lives.For approving or declining hypothesis I used the method of questionnaire and discussion.

Altogether there were 170 questionnaires, 100% of them were returned.The hypothesis are analysed at the end of practical part.

SOCIAL STABILITY AND VALUE ORIENTATION OF THE ROMANIES IN THE CESKE BUDEJOVICE REGION
SLIVKA, Roman
Today modern society is based on education which influences a future social position of an individual in a social hierarchy. Education has an influence on what kind of job I will get, how much money I will earn and how prestigious my job will be. The society is trying to have the whole population educated. Unfortunatelly, some groups of people have a limited access to education and as a result of that their chances of breaking social differences and emancipation from poor cultures are decreasing. There is a view about Roma people that education is not an important value for them and that they don´t care that much about pre-school attendance of their children or studying at basic school. If this fact is true or not, I will try to find out in my bachelor thesis which is intented to Roma relationships and education of their children.
