Family rituals in preschool children
KARASOVÁ, Adéla
This thesis deals with family rituals in preschoolers. The theoretical part of the thesis summarizes the existing findings concerning the relationship among family rituals and other variables of parenthood and the development of a pre-school child. The practical part consists of a multiple case study. Its aim was to get the view of mothers and preschool children on the ritual and to record how the ritual is shaped and how the children themselves are involved in the process. The data were collected in the form of semi-structured interviews with mothers and their pre- school children. The results were described in both case reports and in the inter-case comparison. It was shown that a significant factor in the formation of rituals is the workload of the mother, which at the same time is related both to the occurrence of the ritual and to its course and relation to it. It is also clear from the results that the presence of family members is very important for children. It often plays a more important role than regular repetition. There was also found a consensus on the ritual of mothers and children in individual families.

Keeping The Family Rituals in The 21st. Century.
DVOŘÁKOVÁ, Pavla
This bachelor thesis is focused on the topic which values are attached by families to family rituals in the 21st century and which rituals they try to keep. In the first half of the theoretical part there are some definitions and explanations of some important terms related to rituals, traditions and their importance in people´s life. The second half of the theoretical part deals with a family: different types of families, history and evolution of family lives by Lawrence Stone. Then I deal with the sorting of transition rituals by Gennep. The sorting of family rituals and rituals done during a day is also an integral part of the theory. In the category of calendric rituals some symbols of the most important holidays in the year (such as Christmas and Easter) are chosen and described. The last part contains some extinct and new rituals - e.g. the 1st May, Valentine's Day, All Souls Day and Halloween are included. The second part of the thesis contains the practical part. The aim of the thesis, which is given at the beginning, is to find out, which traditions are handed down from generation to generation in contemporary society, if they are kept, which traditions disappeared and which have come into existence. Furthermore, I deal with the importance of rituals in contemporary families and with describing a form and use of daily and annual rituals. The aim of the work includes this research question: How important are family rituals and traditions in contemporary families? A qualitative research method of semi-structured interview was used in this research. The respondents were chosen by free choice. There were 10 interviewed families, each family differed in parents´ education. The first part consisted of families, whose members have a university degree and in the second part people are apprenticed. All interviewers were asked the same number of questions on a specific topic. At the beginning of the interview, respondents were informed about the research process and the result of the use of the data for the research. Interviews were conducted in a period of two months. One interview lasted during 30-60 minutes, when individual responses were recorded on paper and then transcribed and inserted into Annex. The interviews were held in places that respondents identified themselves, always in natural environment where they felt comfortable and were able to talk about their privacy. Topics containing the interview were divided into 7 categories: basic information, family rituals, family memories, religion and belief, Easter, Christmas, new and extinct rituals. Similarities and differences were identified after a careful study and a comparison. The results of the survey reveal that the families having a university degree attach great importance to family rituals, which means to spend time together, then time of contentment, peace and love. Compared to respondents with apprentice who do not attach much value to family rituals, even if that means to them: evenings spent together, warmth, shared holiday celebrations and holidays. An important aspect of a respect for family rituals is an established order in a family, but that is reflected by employment of parents. Due to time utilization family rituals are also limited in individual families. This research also confirmed compliance with the various traditions that can bring out the original families, mostly at Easter and Christmas. But traditions associated with areligion are reduced. This society refuses the introduction of new rituals to a family and still prefers the traditional customs. This work should aim to identify the values and importance of Czech traditions in a contemporary family, when through the hectic time we do not have time to stop and spend a quiet day with a family. This fact is closely related to problems of family background and family cohesion.
