The mobbing and its interaction in the formation in the employment
KOLÁŘOVÁ, Petra
My thesis deals with the workplace violence as a serious risk factor of the daily life and work and it is a complex problem, especially when psychological violence at the work is a serious problem that is still very underrated. The harassment is the summary name that referred to very bad situation for everybody and it projects to the everyday situations at work and it is manifested not only in labor relations, but also on output and performance of individuals and whole. The thesis of the topic was chosen on the based my own experiences with the regards to the timeliness of this social problem. The main aim is to inform about the hidden and dangerous process of the psychological abuse in the workplace, many participants cannot solve it, because they are designed only for the consequences not the causes of the investigated phenomenon.

Length-weight parameters in large individuals of dace (Leuciscus leuciscus), chub (L. cephalus) and ide (L. idus) captured in the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic
Blahák, Pavel ; Prokeš, Miroslav
Dace, chub and ide are autochthonic fish species of the Czech and Slovak republics. They are significant in term of sports fishery. Ide is actually protected (VU) species. In the text of the contribution are mentioned values of length-weight relationship (TL:w) and factor of weight condition (FWC) in large individuals. Relatively high weight variability and less slope of length-weight relationship were finded. Text is supplemented with survey of largest registered individuals of mentioned species.

Influence of social politics on fertility rate in specific regions of Czech republic
Dvořák, Josef ; Melzochová, Jitka (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
Thesis is focused on relationship between fertility rate and tools of state support. The goal is to reveal relationship between these two factors. Partial goal is to discover specific effects of tools of state support in specific regions of Czech republic. I have aimed on research at national level and also specific regions between years 1993-2014. In order to find these relationships I used method that compares differences in development of the fertility rate. After that, I set up regression model solved by method called fixed effects. For specific regions analysis was used OLS method. Model was able to explain more than 80 % of variability. This results can be used for predicting of citizens behavior, when some changes in family allowances occurs. Main finding is, that most motivating tools are parenting allowances and child benefits.

Immigration as a factor endangering the bilateral relations between the EU and Switzerland
Jakšová, Karolína ; Jiránková, Martina (advisor) ; Němcová, Ingeborg (referee)
This thesis deals with the theme of bilateral relations between the EU and Switzerland, focusing on the current phenomenon of migration. The EU and Switzerland cooperate on bilateral sectoral basis, since Switzerland (hence the citizens of Switzerland) does not want to integrate into the European internal market to maintain its sovereignty and autonomy. Within the first series of bilateral agreements between the EU and Switzerland an agreement on free movement of persons was signed, thereby Switzerland opened its labour market to EU citizens. In February 2014, however, the citizens of Switzerland used the institution of direct democracy and adopted by a narrow majority the initiative to stop mass immigration. This step disrupted the agreement on free movement of persons and the complex negotiations started in order to solve this impasse. The aim of the thesis is to evaluate the impacts of immigration on the Swiss economy and the subsequent evaluation of the reasonableness to mitigate the immigration through a citizens' initiative.

The role of polyploidisation in the evolution of the genus Chenopodium with a focus on Chenopodium quinoa
Babčanová, Natália ; Štorchová, Helena (advisor) ; Cvrčková, Fatima (referee)
Chenopodium is a cosmopolitan paraphyletic genus. Belongs to the Amaranthaceae family and the Chenopodioideae monophyletic subfamily. Diploid, tetraploid and hexaploid species are found in almost all evolution branches of Chenopodioideae, in the case of Chenopodium album, different degrees of ploidy occur within a single species. The degree of ploidy is an important factor in the study of evolution and phylogenetic relationships between Chenopodium species and it also affects the speciation and morphology. The genus Chenopodium includes weeds as well as cultivated crops, such as Chenopodium quinoa, Ch. pallidicaule, Ch. ambrosioides or Swaeda foliosa. Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) is the best known species of the Chenopodium genus. It is an allotetraploid (2n = 4x = 36), derived from the same albeit not yet known diploid parents as a closely related tetraploid Ch. berlandieri. Some of its alleles segregate as in a functional diploid, which complicates genetic analyses and breeding efforts. This species features high genetic variability due to gene flow between weed and crop populations and some other evolution processes that are affected by polyploidy. Quinoa is referred to as a pseudocereal and it has been used as a crop in South America as early as in the Inca times. It can survive at locations unsuitable...

Dynamic model of human resources in project management
Hančar, Michal ; Mildeová, Stanislava (advisor) ; Šviráková, Eva (referee)
This thesis is focused on dynamics of soft factors influencing workers during projects. These factors include motivation, workplace atmosphere, team synergy of workers and their emotions, and attribute of project manager who manages the project. Identification of soft factors and their relationships was achieved by examination of scientific literature in psychology and system dynamics. Description of managing project matters was achieved by examination of scientific literature dealing with project management. The main objective of this thesis is to create a dynamic model which simulates behavior of these soft factors influencing the project staff. The primary metric of the model is efficiency of workers participating on the project based on input parameters. Validation of the model was achieved by verification of historic behavior of key elements. Results of validation experiments correspond with historic behavior with roughly 95 % accuracy. At the end of this thesis is presented an ICT project case study. Based on the results of simulation experiments is performed a scenario analysis which tries to bring possible suggestions for project management.

Motivating Alcohol Addicts to Change
Oswald, Eduard ; Dočkal, Jan (advisor) ; Klimešová, Anna (referee)
The aim of this work is to show that the theme of motivation is a central topic in case of an alcohol addict. Dependence has many dimensions as well as a man has. It hits and changes the whole personality and represents a complicated structure of factors which transcends any medical concept. The goal of this work is to confirm both theoretically and practically dependence concerns human spirituality. Furthermore, it aims to show how complicated the phenomenon of motivation is and to point out connections between the factors influencing changes of an addict and his will and effort to change as well. That is why I focus on personality as a whole at first.. Secondly, I put forth a survey of possible approaches to motivation which I regard acomplicated and complete structure, not only within a frame of psychology but regarding philosophy, sociology and spirituality as well. Like I did on the topic of dependence, I focused on links between motivation and spirituality, too, aiming to account on pastoration possibilities in this field. The goal was to show that as for working on addicts pastoration has both theoretical and practical reasons. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Social meaning of physical exercise presented by some of the Czech women's magazines
Semotánová, Adéla ; Hájek, Martin (advisor) ; Řezáčová, Vendula (referee)
The subject of the thesis is meanings of the physical exercising presented in the Czech women magazines, which I explored through qualitative content analysis of the articles focused on exercising. Three relevant frames or research areas emerged from foreign literature, which became the frames of the analysis: value of the exercise related to the body, the exercise as possible social field and gender level of these practices. I was specifically interested, if the exercise is presented as activity that helps to create socially disciplined body or individually restituted body for personal needs. Or if the exercise creates specific social field - sphere with specific relationship, rules and capital and if the gender is an important factor, connected to the presentation of the exercises in magazines, focused on women. The results show that the exercise is activity that creates the restituted body so as the disciplined body. It is not possible to define, if it is specific social field. The articles content so positive indications as those, which do not comply with the social field definition. Ideal femininity and ideal woman body should be reached by exercising. This ideal woman identity varies from reader's identity, which magazines define as "common" woman. The gender is an important factor that has...

The wood plants in the mown meadow: the analysis of morphology, age, growth and surviving of woody plants on species-rich meadows in the White Carpathian. Bc. Thesis, in Czech.
MAZŮREK, Petr
This study deals with the presence of woody species in species-rich, savanna-like meadows (with scattered Quercus spp. trees) in National Nature Reserve of Čertoryje, Bílé Karpaty Mts., SE Czech Republic. The first part is a community-oriented study of variation of woody species composition on meadows with different land-use management (regularly mown, recultivated,abandoned etc.). Indirect ordination analysis (DCA) was used to relate woody species composition to land-use history (seven meadow types) and species composition of the surrounding vegetation. Further, attempts were made to explain the occurrence and survival of woody species by their life-history traits (root:shoot ratio, regeneration ability after mowing etc). The second part of the thesis tries to identify the most prominent climatic factors affecting the growth of two common oak species in Čertoryje (1) by establishing the mean relationships between tree ring residual chronology and climate through bootstrap moving correlation and response-function analysis, and (2) by distinguishing ``pointer years{\crqq}, which correspond to abrupt changes in growth pattern and reveal the tree-growth response to extreme climatic events, such as summer drought. Since the oaks are ring porous species with abrupt transition between earlywood and latewood, both parameters were measured and used to obtain subseasonal climatic information.

The endocrine function of adipose tissue and its importance for initiation and development of insulin resistance and diabetes
Haluzík, Michal ; Schreiber, Vratislav (advisor) ; Marešová, Dana (referee) ; Šeda, Ondřej (referee)
Endocrine production of adipose tissue is a very complex process affected by numerous endogenous and exogenous stimuli. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors-alpha (PPAR-) are important modulators of metabolic processes which can also affect endocrine function of adipose tissue. Recently, numerous novel factors produced by adipose tissue with important metabolic effects were identified. Some of them can directly bind PPAR receptors. One of the examples of these factors is fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) which can directly bind PPAR receptors and indirectly modify its activation by changing availability of endogenous PPAR ligands -free fatty acids. We hypothesized that the mechanism of action of PPAR receptors to metabolic processes may partially lie in their complex interaction with adipose tissue-derived hormones. The unraveling of these interactions may have important consequences in finding approaches to treat patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. (...) In summary, our data show an important role for the interplay of PPAR activation and endocrine function of adipose tissue in metabolic regulations which may have important clinical consequences.
