Adolescents substance use : identifying factors influencing alcohol consumption among high school students in the Czech Republic
Mandelíková, Martina ; Strecker, Ondřej (referee) ; Pertold, Filip (advisor)
This bachelor thesis focuses on indicating the factors, which influence the participation in adolescent substance use. Possibly important factors are identified based on the previous researches dealing with the same topic. The effect of these factors is then tested with the empirical model. This thesis deals with a dataset from the European School Survey Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs done at the Czech high schools among freshmen and juniors. Since the results in dependence on sex and class year are expected to be different, the regression is run separately. The most significant factors are for all cases: the smoking experience, the age of the first intoxication, and the share of friends who already consume alcohol.

Development of EU's energy dependence
Glockner, Martin ; Vondrušková, Barbora (advisor) ; Bič, Josef (referee)
There is a huge disproportion, in the world we know today, in terms of geographical distribution between the mining sites and the location of final consumption of energy resources. The aim of this thesis is to analyze this imbalance, to quantify the dependence of the EU region and to analyze European energy policy, its conception, evolution and transformation.

The Support for Children with Developmental Dysphasia in a Preschool Educational Institution
ČERMÁKOVÁ, Irena
The aim of this bachelor´s thesis is to contribute to the improvement of the support for children suffering from their developmental dysphasia in the pre-school education establishment. The theoretical part is based on the development trends of children?s speech, then I characterized the aspects of the impaired speech developments and finally I focused on developmental dysphasia issues from the diagnostic and therapeutic viewpoints, as well as on the issues of the education and support for children with developmental dysphasia. The practical part contains case studies concerning three children in order to reveal positive as well as risk factors of the education held in a special kindergarten logopaedic class. The special attention was paid to their educational progress depending on pedagogical activity, mutual co-operation among kindergarten, the family and advisory centres. The interviews with the child?s mother form the part of the progress - evaluating research.

Míra ohrožení chudobou jako indikátor chudoby v Evropě ? analýza vlastností a vypovídací schopnosti
Zelený, Martin ; Jílek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Cyhelský, Lubomír (referee) ; Sirovátka, Tomáš (referee)
Tématika sociální soudržnosti a sociálního vyloučení hraje v posledním období stále významnější roli v agendě Evropské unie. Spolu s tímto vývojem narůstá i potřeba srovnatelných sociálních indikátorů pro oblast příjmů a životních podmínek. Významným indikátorem pro tuto oblast je v současné době indikátor ?míra ohrožení chudobou?, který patří do skupiny klíčových strukturálních indikátorů pro pravidelné monitorování sociální situace v EU. V této souvislosti se tento indikátor těší rostoucí mediální pozornosti a zájmu uživatelů. Tématem předkládané práce je analýza tohoto indikátoru, jeho vlastností a vypovídací schopnosti. Úvodní část se zabývá teoretickými koncepty měření chudoby, vybranými indikátory pro měření chudoby a problematice dat o příjmech domácností. Druhá kapitola podrobně analyzuje definici indikátoru ?míra ohrožení chudobou? a jednotlivé její parametry. Prezentovány jsou odhady hodnot tohoto indikátoru v České republice pro populaci celkem a vybrané socioekonomické skupiny obyvatelstva spočtené z dat šetření Mikrocensus 2002. Třetí kapitola analyzuje citlivost výsledků na volbu dvou hlavních parametrů indikátoru ? procenta mediánu příjmu pro stanovení hranice chudoby a stupnice spotřebních jednotek použité pro přepočet disponibilních příjmů domácností. Kromě obvyklého srovnání několika referenčních hodnot je navrženo použití parametrického přístupu a empirických citlivostních křivek jako vhodného nástroje pro analýzu vývoje hodnoty indikátoru v závislosti na parametrech v jeho definici. Závěrečná část práce se pak věnuje vlastnostem odhadu míry ohrožení chudobou jako statistické veličiny a dopady, které tyto vlastnosti mohou mít na jeho interpretaci a používání.

Dlouhodobé změny fyzikálně-chemických parametrů rybníků v závislosti na způsobu hospodaření
Mrkvica, Aleš
Aim of this bachelor thesis is to create review about long term changes in physical-chemical parameters of the ponds according to their farming usage. In the theoretical part you can find description of these main pointers : oxygen, phosphorus, nitrogen, pH, BSK, CHSK and organoleptic properties. After this the ponds are divided and described according to their trophy and eutrophication. In the part about material and methods there are listed and described individual sampling sites and sampling methods. In the practical part there are results of monitored ponds in diagrams. Data were collected during few last years by department of fishery and hydrobiology in the southern Moravia. Results were then compared with standard of environmental quality of surface water.

Analysis of EEG signal using principal component analysis (PCA)
Walczysko, Martin ; Vítek, Martin (referee) ; Rychtárik, Milan (advisor)
In the beginning of the bachelor’s thesis is dealt with the measurement of EEG signals in the laboratory of Department of Biomedical Engineering at FEEC BRNO and following processing in programming environment Matlab. The aim of the thesis tries to demonstrate the analysis of EEG dates using the principal components analysis. There are shown the using possibilities for reducing the dimension of input’s dates. It is considered the lay-out of electrodes, the duration of recording or existing artifact. There is also conducted a study of highlighting the abnormalities contained in EEG in order to easier detection. In the end are outlined the possibilities of using the ICA for analysis of EEG and eventually for removing unwanted artifacts.

Mining physiological data for automated educational feedback
Bašátková, Kateřina ; Lustigová, Zdena (advisor) ; Rotter, Miloš (referee)
1 Title: Mining Physiological Data for Automated Educational Feedback Author: Bc. Kateřina Bašátková Department: Department of Physics Education Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Zdena Lustigová, CSc., Department of Physics Education Abstract: This thesis deals with mining physiological data for automated educational feedback. The first part summarizes former researches of physiological data and its assertation into human behaviour. Special attention is devoted especially to eye tracking and measuring heart rate during behavioral processes. The second part is dedicated to author's own research how blink rate and heart rate are influenced by the degree of cognitive load. The research was executed on six subjects. The obtained data confirm correlation of blink rate and heart rate with the difficulty of the task. Keywords: heart rate, heart rate variability, blink rate, cognitive load
