Delikvence mládeže a rodina Zuzana Podaná Abstrakt Disertační práce se zabývá tématem delikvence mládeže, které nejprve představuje jak v teoretické rovině a z pohledu výsledků zahraničních kriminologických výzkumů, tak i z metodologické perspektivy, kde diskutuje možnosti výzkumu tohoto fenoménu a využitelnost různých zdrojů dat. Klíčová analytická část studie je založena především na výsledcích výzkumu ISRD-2, jenž byl vůbec první celonárodní reprezentativní studií delikvence mládeže v České republice uskutečněnou metodou selfreportů. Výzkum proběhl v letech 2006-7 a zahrnoval žáky sedmých až devátých ročníků školy. Z teoretických pozic práce vychází především z koncepcí sociální kontroly, ale propojuje je rovněž s přístupem teorie diferenciální asociace a využívá i situační hledisko kriminálních příležitostí. Prezentované analýzy nejprve popisují stav, strukturu a vývoj delikvence mládeže, a to i na základě policejních statistik, což umožňuje porovnat jejich výsledky s výzkumem ISRD-2. Hlavní pozornost je pak věnována etiologii delikvence, kde je za primární východisko zvolena rodina a zkoumány jsou její různé aspekty a jejich vztah k delikvenci. V závěru práce jsou analýzy rozšířeny i o další sociální faktory (vrstevnické skupiny, životní styl, škola, sousedství) a individuální dispozice (sebekontrola,...

Alcohol use by youth: an empirical test of Skog's theory of distribuce of alcohol consumption
Čermáková, Iveta ; Podaná, Zuzana (advisor) ; Buriánek, Jiří (referee)
This master thesis presents a theory of distribution of alcohol consumption by a Norwegian sociologist Ole-Jørgen Skog (1985), which has had an influence on many alcohol policies. Skog's theory described the relationship between the average alcohol consumption in the population and the consumption at all levels of consumption (from light to heavy drinkers). A change in the average consumption of the population is always followed by a change at each level of consumption; Skog describes this relationship as log-linear (multiple) and argues that the largest changes appears at the level of light drinkers. Another key point of this thesis is to describe the development of underage alcohol consumption in the Czech Republic, compared with Finland, which is the subject of the second chapter. A comparison with Finland was chosen based on the results of an international survey ESPAD, which showed that both countries have different trends in alcohol consumption by youth, and in its excessive form as well (Hibell et al., 2012). Data analysed in this thesis come from international surveys ISRD and ESPAD, which consistently showed that alcohol consumption increases over time among Czech youth, while it decreases in Finland. Furthermore, the Czech Republic has higher prevalence of alcohol consumption. In the...

The main content of my work is a research done at the Philosophical faculty of the Charles University. In the research there was being found out how students assess their existing awareness of labour-market and access to these information. Students had to, at the same time, reflect the relationship between their own education and visions of their future job. Other questions were directed to the theme of establishing an institution at Philosophical faculty, which would offer consulting in the sphere of labour-market.

This thesis focuses on problems with identification of respondent as a gang member from the standpoint of process of operationalisation, which give a selection of adequate indicators, whereas we emphasize the cognitive aspects of survey methodology. The thesis is separated into two parts: theoretical and empirical. In the first part we particularly pay attention to the basic theories of social deviations as theory of cultures and subcultures, social control or differential association and identification from Chicago school, which we mention in connection with problems of peers, and also to the area of cognitive aspect of survey methodology, precisely to one of four phases of process of asking and answering the question - interpretation of the question. Further, we mention international survey ISRD-2 (International Self-Report Delinquency Study), techniques of data collection, definition of the gang and its operationalisation according to Eurogang group During the data analysis we try to work with the operationalisation of the gang definition. There are two important moments regarding the membership in the gang: the question of understanding the word "gang" by broader spectrum of respondents in different cultural conditions and the meaning of the word "illegal", when committing of illegal things is one of...
