The theoretical part defines actual knowledge about this theme and is divided into two chapters an introduction to issues about ageing and financial literacy. The author talks about seniors, demographic situation of ageing, forms of living, secured retirement in old age and financial literacy. The author also paid attention to presentations of products. The practical part includes the actual implementation of research and interpretation of the data is divided into four chapters. The first chapter is devoted to the work and objectives of the research questions. The aim is to map the awareness of seniors in the effective management of their finances. The author also set partial research questions and the main research question is whether seniors are aware of their financial security. The second chapter researches methodology, which includes a qualitative research method of semi-structured interviews. The interviews are divided into three fields. The first is introductory information, the second field is financial literacy and the last field is presentations of products. The research methodology also characterizes the surveyed group, which consists of ten respondents over sixty five years old and lives in the Trebon region. In the third and the most extensive chapter there are the results and data. The elderly mostly answered in a different way however in some ways they agreed. The last chapter evaluates results and draws the author´s opinion. It has been found out that respondents have diverse interests and hobbies in retirement and they participate in them very actively. The income of the respondents is satisfactory to those who live in a household of two members. The financial situation has been described as good as well as average. Fifty percent of the respondents have experience with credit and only two of them create the budgets. The last set of questions was about demonstrations of goods and majority of the respondents have some experience with them. The last chapter is the conclusion which summarizes the information obtained. The main research question is whether seniors are aware of their financial security and the results show that all respondents have an over view of their finances. The elderly people orientate themselves well in money matters and they can optimally manage their money. They are vigilant in connection with credit and loans. They rather save money and they say that they do not buy anything when they do not have money. It is good that they are informed and can thus better resist the pitfalls that exist in this world, whether we like it or not.

Differences between men and women in the Czech labour market
Stroukal, Dominik ; Kadeřábková, Božena (advisor) ; Pavelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Němec, Otakar (referee)
This thesis consists of five articles that apply current world research on labor economics at the Czech Republic and confirms the significant differences between men and women in this market. It shows that gender has a significant influence on the preference on the labor market and, consequently, on employment and health. First, the thesis shows that preferences are relevant determinant of career and then we study the difference in preference of salary for men and women. Subsequently it shows that gender plays a significant role in explaining the relationship between homeownership, and unemployment, as well as unemployment and health. The first chapter was able to demonstrate that the preference for a career has a positive influence on the choice of career. The influence of higher education on prioritizing career proved to be positive and significant. Probability of a career choice is reduced by the presence of children, however, is not dependent on their number, which is contrary to the theory of preferences. The second chapter shows that Czech women prefer more non-monetary rewards than men. It has also been shown that people with university education are same in the preferences of non-monetary rewards regardless of the gender of the respondents, however, compared to the world's research, the Czech higher education increases this preference. It turned out that women prefer risk less than men. The third chapter demonstrates that although the housing market undermines labor mobility and employment in the Czech Republic at the regional level, therefore, that in regions with a higher rate of home ownership is higher unemployment, at the individual level, the owners of housing are unemployed are less likely. The estimates are significantly different for men and women. Men living in owner-occupied housing have a higher likelihood of employment than women. At regional level, however, this thesis shows that the high rate of home ownership increases unemployment for both men and women, in the long run only to women. The fourth chapter showed that men transition to homeownership reduces the likelihood of unemployment next year. For women, this relationship has proved to be insignificant. In addition, as insignificant showed the opposite relationship, the transition from unemployment to the newly acquired home ownership. The last chapter shows that the change in the working status to unemployment will increase in the future probability of worse health. Influence in less than two years, however, proved to be significant. An important conclusion is that men have a significantly stronger relationship between health and unemployment than women.

How are high school students informed about virus biology
Solarová, Pavlína ; Drda Morávková, Alena (advisor) ; Fraiberk, Martin (referee)
Biology is the study of viruses, which are engaged in teaching 2-3 lessons. During those hours, students must not only absorb information about the structure and function of the virus, but also the reproduction of the organism, several representatives and, ultimately, diseases that cause that exists prevention and treatment these diseases. Students remember what it is for the vaccine, the virus infects whom, how they can get infected or what the immune system. What makes the problem of students are questions: which of the viral disease is, what constitutes a viral particle, or what is an infectious disease. In the RVP G is determined curriculum is very vaguely. The teacher thus has a certain freedom in creating the ŠVP and its preparations. To more precise what students should know for graduation, testing requirements used common catalog of the school-leaving examination in this case of biology, who has broken the outputs of the curriculum of all biological disciplines.

Global Economy Outlook - December 2016
Česká národní banka
Global Economic Outlook presents the regular monthly overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue, we also focus on a major phenomenon of the day: the migration of people into Europe, and Germany in particular. In this context, we present an analysis of the effect of the increased number of refugees on the German labour market. We show, among other things, that the incoming migrants will be far from enough to cover the demand for labour in Germany and also that they will compete more with workers arriving in search of jobs in Germany from Central and Eastern European countries than with German citizens.

Compartment syndrome in pre-hospital urgent care
BENEŠOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor thesis focuses on conditions associated with compartment syndrome development in prehospital care. Pressure increase in a closed anatomical space is characteristic for this condition, leading to circulation and neural sensitivity affection in the specified area. In the prehospital care, we may meet with the compartment syndrome in fractures, burns, allergic reactions, traumas caused by an accident, electrotraumas; further in crush syndrome, traffic accidents, craniocerebral injuries and other conditions associated with swelling. This thesis focuses on burns, fractures, electrotraumas, intra-abdominal hypertension and conditions caused by snake bite. Inconsiderate or inadequate manipulation with affected patient may worsen his/her condition and lead to deterioration of his/her health condition or even fatal consequences. The aim of this thesis was to map the theoretical and practical knowledge of non-medical health care professionals working in prehospital care, in treatment of conditions able to delay compartment syndrome development or even to accelerate it. Data collection for the research was performed using questionnaires and semistandardised interviews. Questionnaires were filled by 20 randomly chosen respondents. 12 respondents were interviewed. Correct answers evaluation is listed in the tables in the practical part of this thesis. Interviews transcript is a part of the practical part as well, with colour coded correct and incorrect information provided by the interviewed medical rescuers. A sample test and list of posed questions with sub-questions are included in the attachment. Both parts of the research were performed with medical rescuers and general medicine nurses working at medical rescue services of southbohemian region and the region of Vysočina. The research found that the term of compartment syndrome is well known by medical rescuers and general nurses working at medical rescue services. However, they are not aware of its association with prehospital care. In some cases, the answers of the responders differed significantly, as for treatment of acute conditions associated with this problem, from the recommended procedures according to the literature. Furthermore, the research analysed the type and amount of used fluids in pre-hospital care. This question showed interesting findings as well. Lastly, the research analysed the options of acute fasciotomy in circular neck burns in prehospital care. The respondents interpreted this procedure as life-saving, as this condition is life-threatening for patients and quick transport without releasing incisions is very risky. It is a procedure that should be known to medical rescuers, at least at the theoretical level, and considered life-saving, even if they do not have sufficient competences to perform it. Respondents showed interest and effort for deepening of their knowledge about this procedure during the research. This situation may be improved by additional training in traumatology, surgery and intensive care not only in medical rescuers working in medical rescue services, but in students of these specialisations as well. This thesis could be a base for deeper investigation of this topic, currently insufficiently known; furthermore, for increasing specialised knowledge of medical rescuers in treatment of oedematous conditions and increasing of health care quality in prehospital acute care.
