The movement activity of adolescent children
DINDA, Ondřej
The topic of my bachelor?s work describes problems of physical activity of children, during the period of adolescence and its influence on the health condition and the ontogenetic development of the motion apparatus. Since there are more children and adolescents, who spend a significant time of a day under a static load, to the detriment of motion activities, this topic is very actual and important. The theoretical part of my work deals with postural ontogenesis, with the significance of motion activities in individual development stages of children and adolescents, with an overview of present most popular motion activities. Further I focused on posture defects, on the impact of the school load on the child?s organism, the risks of working with computers and last but not least I described methods of prevention and treatment of consequences the above factors might cause. The objective of the practical part was to find out the frequency of motion apparatus problems, wrong habits in movements and their impact on the postural system in selected classes of secondary and primary schools. To collect the data I chose a quantitative research with a questionnaire, which contained 21 questions. Mainly the frequency of motion apparatus problems, the motion activity and further activities that affect the condition of the motion apparatus and the knowledge of the basic preventive measures were examined. There were 108 pupils in the 8th and 9th form of the school in Oparany, pupils in the 9th form of the school in Jistebnice and pupils in the first and second form of the Grammar School Pierre de Coubertin in Tabor that participated in the research. The age of the respondents was between 14 and 17 years. The results were assessed by means of the frequency analysis and have been presented in graphs. Each respondent received together with the questionnaire an educational booklet, which was prepared in an easily understandable form to give information of the impact of environment on the health of the motion apparatus, the prevention and the basic therapy of the already existing problems. The results of the research show that 70.3 percent of respondents has already had or has suffered from pains of the motion apparatus. 26.8 percent of respondents meet the requirements for the recommended weekly volume of motion activity for children and adolescents; they are mainly boys. The importance of preventive measures, e.g. the way of sitting realize most of the respondents, however the level of their knowledge of individual factors, which affect the health of the motion apparatus differed significantly. This bachelor?s work can be used in clinical practice of physiotherapist or by teachers, teaching not only physical education.

Wikturna, Jan ; Strejček, Ivo (advisor) ; Zamrazilová, Eva (referee)
This Bachelor thesis is focused on a macroeconomic analysis of the process of the real and nominal convergence of the Visegrad Group countries to the old member states of the European Union, called EU-15 during the period of 2000-2015. The objective of the analysis is to confirm or disprove the hypothesis that in the selected period there is a convergence of the economically backward V4 countries with the advanced EU-15 countries and to highlight the factors that are behind the narrowing of the gap in economics and price levels. The theoretical part deals with the ways in which we measure and compare the economic performance and economic level, and explains the different approaches of the problem of economic growth and the subsequent catching up effect. The practical part is focused on a comparison of elected macroeconomic indicators and reference is made to the selected factors to determine whether, and for what reasons, the economic convergence of these selected countries made towards the developed countries of the EU-15. The analytical part confirms the ongoing process of the real and nominal convergence throughout the period, but its course is varied during different times of the period. In conclusion, it is found that the rate varied by the convergence processes and in fact positively affected the V4 countries, that joined the European Union. The incoming dynamics of the convergence, especially the prices, were significantly disrupted by the economic crisis.

The effect of investment in tertiary education on gross wages in the region Prague
Diessner, Daniel ; Chytil, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Babin, Jan (referee)
The aim of this work is to determine whether and how higher education affects gross wages. The theoretical part focuses on the theory of human capital, especially investment in education. The theory posits that a higher investment in human capital leads to higher yield, higher wages. The validity of this concept will be tested on the group of respondents who entered the labour market at the turn of millennium. Concentration of candidates with tertiary education in this period has risen considerably, which could cause an imbalance in the labour market. The practical part is based on the work of Mincer (1974). I used Mincer Earnings Function as a basis to build regression model. Partial aim is to prove the declining rate of return on investment in tertiary education using Mincer Equation.

That has been achieved with the help of global financial crisis, but also with regard to the economic policy implemented in 2007-2015. As a result, GDP of BRICs in terms of GDP of G6 achieved stable growth rate leading to its increase by 52 %.
