Pupil's temperament and social position in the classroom in early adolescence
ČEKALOVÁ, Bára
This bachelor thesis deals with temperament in the enviroment of school classroom. The main goal of this work is to discover the connection between temperament traits and social positions. The first part gathers already identified theoretical knowledge and already existing research about the connection. The second part examines this relationship in practice. The practical part consists of a quantitative study. The research sample consisted of a total of 75 pupils in the 6th and 7th grades of the Primary School. Temperament traits were determined using the EATQR questionnaire from Mary Rothbart and Les Eliss, social position using the Sociometric rating method of Vladimír Hrabal. To supplement the information, we analyzed the verbal statements of students about their classmates and compared them with a self-test questionnaire. The data were processed using Statistica 13 and Microsoft Excel. The results of the research showed that certain connections exist within this relationship, but they are not fully identical with the theoretical assumptions and previous research. In the total sample, we found connections between free control and extraversion. A statically significant positive relationship between extraversion and influence was found in a sample of boys. We did not find any significant relationship between temperament traits and social positions in the classroom in the group of girls. Verbal statements often included the evaluation of others according to marks or the evaluation of the teacher. Girls rated girls more positively and boys rated boys more positively. Inconsistencies often appeared between the self-test questionnaires and the results of the evaluation by others, which may be caused by stylization according to social desirability or a small research sample.

Karaffová, Eva ; Baumgartner, František
The concept of intelligence is currently linked to different theoretical meanings, as well as conceptual ambiguity of the construct. It is shown to the importance of the analysis of the relationships of emotional intelligence in terms of the model as the personality feature and also to the abilities towards social competences which are very important in early adolescence. Understanding the concept of emotional intelligence is not uniform and there is some overlap with the concept of social intelligence. This paper deals with relationships of emotional intelligence as personality feature and social intelligence.

The Social and Health Assessment (SAHA), a school survey, was conducted with 4980 adolescents (age 12-16years old) in Prague and 12 regional capitals of the Czech Republic. In current study data from 3023 adolescents aged 12 – 14 years are presented. K-means cluster analysis was used to identify the main clusters of antisocial behavior. Subsequently, adolescents from different clusters were compared on the levels of their substance use, affiliation with peers, parent child interactions, attachment to school, and violence exposure. Four major clusters of children were identified: the first cluster (17% of the sample) comprised children with mild conduct problems, adolescents from the second cluster (2%) reported the highest levels of all types of antisocial behavior, the third cluster (56%) included non-problematic children with the lowest levels of antisocial behavior, and children in the fourth cluster (16%) were characterized by moderate aggressive behavior (fistfights and shoving) and no other expressions of antisocial behavior. The cluster 2, children with highest levels of all types of antisocial behavior, have been found as the most risk and threatened group with high levels of other risk behaviors (substance use, affiliation with delinquent peers) and negative social influences (poor family relationships, violence exposure).
