Unconvential monetary policy adopted by ECB and FED in 2008-2015
Pörner, Marek ; Šetková, Lenka (advisor) ; Ševčíková, Michaela (referee)
The main aim of this thesis is to analyse the accomplishment of the goals set, namely those of the selected unconventional monetary policies approved by the Federal Reserve System and the European Central Bank in response to the last financial crisis. With the FED the attention is focused on Quantitative Easing, whereas with the ECB it is focused on the programmes called Enhanced Credit Support, SMP, OMT and EAPP. Important parts of this thesis are also the explanation of the transmission mechanism of the unconventional monetary policy, the evaluation of macroeconomic impacts of these non-standard tools, the comparison of procedures of the two monitored central banks, but mainly the analysis of selected risks related to those tools. The principal method was an empirical analysis supported by economic studies dealing with the issues mentioned above. In the thesis it was discovered that the individual goals of the monitored programmes were achieved (with the exception of the SMP). With the programme EAPP no conlusion can be drawn because the programme has not been finished yet. Nevertheless, these non-standard tools bring certain risks such as a creation of a bubble in the markets of assets, a redistribution of wealth, a spillover effect, etc. For that reason it will be possible to evaluate the overall effect of the unconventional monetary policies only after a longer time period.

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.

The analysis of price elasticity of demand for beer
Hromadníková, Kateřina ; Mirvald, Michal (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
The thesis analyses price elasticity of beer demand. Hypothesis about inelastic demand is tested first for nationwide level and then on data of specific brewery. Elasticity was determined by regression analysis, specifically by ordinary least squares with all variables expressed in logarithmic form. Consumption of beer is the endogenous variable and price of bottled beer (price of one hectoliter of beer in case of brewery), average gross income and price level are in the role of the exogenous variables. The hypothesis about inelastic demand was successfully proved. Price elasticity estimates range from -0,66 to -0,2. In case of specific brewery price was not significant. On the other hand, average gross income seems to be the significant determinant. According to income elasticity beer seems to be luxury good in case of specific brewery and necessity in case of nationwide level.

University of South Bohemia students' knowledge of the first aid theory
MALANÍKOVÁ, Jana
This work is separated into two main parts, the theoretical part and the research. In the first part the reader is familiar with teoretic knowledge of the first aid. I thought it is absolutely necessary to mention here the definition of the first aid , basic first aid theory consisted of the laic aid and the technical one. This work also correctly describes the latest techniques of cardiopulmonary resuscitation at adults . The second chapter is a small reminder of a history of the Red Cross. This chapter contains information about the beginnings of the Red Cross, as was the case with the founding of the Red Cross in the Czech Republic, dats about the International Movement of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and basic information about the possibillities of the first aid training. The fourth chapter is devoted to the basic principles of treatment for some life -threatening conditions such as: shock, unconsciousness, fractures, bleeding and how to call EMS. To learn about the accessibility and the clarity of the information of the first aid at the same time, I tried to borrow from the various information sources. According to the information, I decided to include above- mentioned theory in the theoretical part of the work. The second part relates the research , which has been established for one primary objective : to find out knowledge of the theory of the first aid. The research was conducted at selected colleges JCU, questionnaires were completed by 159 students. I chose respondents from these faculties intended to find the information just at these students because they represent a particular age group but also the various sectors of human activities. I further modified the sample random with the same proportion of students from the various faculties in the number of 100 respondents. There was chosen a quantitative method for this research. The necessary dats were collected by using an anonymous questionnaires. A structured questionnaire (see Appendix 1) contained a total of 22 questions focused on the theoretical knowledge of the first aid of JCU student. I processed the dats to confirm or refute the hypotheses in advance. Evaluation of dats was carried out using statistical random selectio , contingency tables and the results were set out neatly into the graphs. The results were processed in the Microsoft Office Excel 2010 programme. The statistical evaluation of the research has shown that the average knowledge of all faculties are balanced.

Nursing care for woman at minor gynecological surgeries
KÁPLOVÁ, Veronika
Minor gynecological surgeries are defined as surgeries after which the patients are dismissed from hospital to home care within 12 to 24 hours. The purpose of pre-surgery care provided by a midwife is to ensure thorough somatic and mental preparation of the patient for the surgery. The patient is required to sign all necessary consents with the surgery, she shall be informed about the course of pre-surgery care, the surgery itself, post-surgery recovery and naturally also about all risks involved. The result of a consistent instruction provided by a midwife shall be a patient who is calm and mentally prepared for the surgery (Henková, 2010; Repková, 2006). The bachelor thesis includes a theoretical part and a practical part with research. The theoretical part focuses on minor gynecological surgeries and nursing care before and after the surgery. The objective of the bachelor thesis was to survey the level of awareness among women about minor gynecological surgeries. Two research questions were formulated to meet the objective: what the level of awareness about minor gynecological surgeries is among women and which method of information provision would be appreciated by women. The research part of the bachelor thesis employed the method of qualitative survey. The data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews. The surveyed set of respondents consisted of 8 women. The interviews were conducted from the beginning of February to the end of March 2014. The survey was expected to provide information about whether the women had been sufficiently informed about minor gynecological surgeries. For the category of pre-surgery period we investigated the following: What is the experience of women with previous nursing care? To what extent were the women informed by their local gynecologists and were they sufficiently informed in the hospital before the surgery? The results have shown that most of the respondents did not have any previous experience with nursing care. Two respondents said that they had previously undergone a minor surgery and that they were content with the nursing care. Results of the survey have shown some gaps in the form and quantity of information provided in medical offices of the local gynecologists. One half of the respondents were not content with the information provided in the medical offices. The information provided in the hospital before the surgery was assessed positively by five respondents out of eight and they appreciated particularly the personal and accommodating approach, professional conduct and empathy. For the category of post-surgery period we investigated how the respondents saw the approach of the nursing staff in the operating room. The results have shown that the respondents evaluated positively particularly the fact that the physician introduced himself/herself to the patient and provided information about the subsequent care. For the category of post-surgery care we also investigated subjective feelings of the respondents after the surgery, their awareness of the post-surgery regime at home and the form of information provision. Results of the research suggest that patients are highly perceptive, particularly when it comes to friendly gestures and words. The information about the home post-surgery regime was rated positively by one half of the respondents and negatively by the other half. On the other hand, they appreciated the personal and accommodating approach and professional conduct. Most of the respondents were content with the form of information provision. Some of them would have appreciated to have a leaflet or information brochure containing all important information. The theoretical part of the bachelor thesis can be as used as a study material for future students of midwifery at the Faculty of Health and Social Studies of the University of South Bohemia.
