How parents regulate behavior of their preschool children
BANDOROVÁ, Adéla
This bachelor's thesis investigates the view of parents on how they regulate the behavior of their preschool children, the ways in which they try to regulate children's behavior, how they perceive that ways and their influence on the child, and what, according to them, enters the context of their child rearing guidance. In the theoretical part, the developmental specifics of preschool age, the role of the parent, determinants of parental behavior, upbringing and child rearing practices are described. The practical part is based on a qualitative research design, specifically a multiple case study. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews with six parents of preschool children. The results of the research show that parents regulate their children´s behavior in four basic ways. The analysis of the obtained data also provides insight into the context of the regulation of children's behavior, in which parents place their own experiences and diverse determinants that modify the form of their parental behavior.

Bedtime story and sleep! Regulating the use of television in raising children under 6 years of age
Švecová, Martina ; Jirák, Jan (advisor) ; Bednařík, Petr (referee) ; Štoll, Martin (referee)
The rigorous thesis "Bedtime story and sleep! Regulating the use of television in raising children under 6 years of age", describes the way and intensity of how parents regulate children's TV viewing. However, since a TV set (as an object) in our households is not the only displaying device and television (as an institution) is not the only broadcaster of television contents, this thesis also includes watching TV programmes on other displaying devices such as computer, tablet, laptop and smartphone, which are connectable to the Internet. The chosen target group are children from 0 to 6 years of age. The thesis is based on two hypotheses. Firstly, parents use TV as a babysitter, and do so for various reasons. The second hypothesis assumes that parents do not pay attention to the time and type of programmes that children watch, even at a very early age when children are most vulnerable. The theoretical part consists of two chapters. The first chapter describes the position and importance of a TV set (as an object), television (as an institution) and television programmes (as watched audiovisual contents) in our households, and deals with the influence of television on the socialisation of the child in the family. The second chapter describes both positive and negative influences of media (television...
