Kolská, Marta ; Javůrková, Alena (advisor) ; Nikodemová, Hana (referee)
Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to investigate how the variables Locus of Control, God Locus of Health Control and religiosity predict the quality of life of patients with epilepsy and whether these variables differ in prevalence in a healthy control group. Methods: The research group consisted of 275 patients with epilepsy examined within the neuropsychological Centre for the Treatment of Epilepsy of the Department of Neurology, 2nd Medical Faculty and Motol University Hospital. The comparison group consisted of a group of 182 healthy respondents. Respondents were interviewed using WAIS-III, EPQ R abbreviated version, BDI-II, VAS, QOLIE-89 (version 1.0) and GLHC. The t-test and the Mann-Whitney test were used to determine differences between groups. Contingency tables were used for discrete quantities. The relationship between the variables was demonstrated by Spearman's correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression. The research was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Motol University Hospital. Results: The resulting model of stepwise linear regression prediction of the Mean score showed that by including the variables Neuroticism HS and GLHC˃6 in the overall model, these significant variables can explain 21.44 % variability of Locus of control (R2=0.2144). It was also found...
Fair Trade and its critique. Assessing the significance of trade aimed to support developing country producers
Kolská, Marta ; Čabanová, Bohumila (advisor) ; Nováček, Pavel (referee)
The thesis "Fair Trade and its critique. Assessing the significance of trade aimed to support developing country producers." draws attention to a tool that serves to improve the living conditions in the so-called global South countries. Fair Trade is claimed to be a trading partnership supporting greater equity in international trade and sustainable development by offering better trading conditions and securing rights to marginalised producers. Apart from introducing Fair Trade aims and principles that suppport this idea, the work identifies controversial points and seeks responses to the critique in technical literature and with development cooperation experts. Based on identifying the problematic aspects, the concept can be assessed. Expert opinions show the extent to which this concept is perceived as effective and credible.
