Risk taking behavior in children from foster care
SPILKOVÁ, Tereza
This Bachelor thesis deals with the problems of behavioral disorders, mainly in the context of problematic behaviors related to seeking individual identity. The thesis focuses on adolescents who were accepted into substitute family care and don't have access to the information about their past or biological parents. The aim of the theoretical part was to establish a connection between placement of the child into substitute family care and the development of problematic behavior during adolescence. The theory focused on the identification of specifics of the early stay in institutional state care and the effects of missing information about one's origin, in relation to behavioral disturbances in adolescents. The research component of the work was based on collecting quantitative data from deep conversations which were focused on the context of the development of behavioral disorders in an adolescent male, who grew up in an adoptive family and didn't have available information about his origin or biological family.

Methods The research involved 22 experienced leaders, 8 men and 14 women (aged 26 5,2) from 18 different summer children's camps, who were sent a questionnaire with open questions. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used as a method for processing the collected data. By coding the obtained responses and then grouping similar codes together, an overarching theme was identified for each of the sub-questions. The results The results were processed in 3 sections that answer the sub-research questions: 1. The combination of personal experience and basic education about ADHD seems to be sufficient for working with children with ADHD at summer camps. 2. The participation of a child with ADHD at a summer camp does not significantly affect the functioning or the program of the camp. 3. Leaders are aware of the differences of children with ADHD and work with them accordingly. They are patient and respond to situations with calmness.

The Possibilities of alternative and augmentative communication for clients with ASD
ZEMANOVÁ, Kristina
The bachelor thesis focuses on the issue of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and behavior disorders. The aim of the work is to find out whether families with children with autism spectrum disorder use some of the AAC methods and whether, in their opinion, it is possible to prevent problematic behavior using an alternative communication system. The aim of the work is also to find out whether the use of AAC methods does not hinder the development of speech and, on the contrary, whether speech production can improve. The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of communication with clients who do not communicate verbally and at the same time do not use any of the AAC methods. The theoretical part, based on the study of academic literature, explains the basic term of autism, its characteristic signs and briefly characterizes the individual disorders of the autistic spectrum. It also deals with the definition of behavior disorders, communication and AAC methods that can be used when working with clients. The aim of the practical part is to analyze the data obtained by observation and evaluation of written questionnaires. The observation and questionnaire survey was carried out at the Children's Psychiatric Hospital in Opařany as part of respite care led by APLA South Bohemia. The method of quantitative research of questioning was used in this work and the results can be used by parents of children with autism spectrum disorders for the possible development of communication skills.

Parental reactions to children's negative emotions and their relations to behavior problems in kindergarten
ŠIMONOVÁ, Sára Anne
In the theoretical part of the thesis the parent's reactions to children's negative emotions, in relation to their children's developmental outcomes and studies, are introduced. The other part of the thesis deals with the parental reactions in practice. The practical part consists of a quantitative study and the main purpose is to contribute to understanding some of the factors connected with children's problematic behavior in kindergarten. We assume that unsupportive parental reactions are related to problematic behavior. This assumption was verified using a questionnaire construction. The research sample consisted of a total of 41 respondents from 3 different kindergartens. Parental reactions to negative emotions of a child were evaluated by mothers using CCNES questionnaire. CBQ-VS was completed by mothers to assess their child's temperament. Primary caregivers completed PKBS questionnaire about children's problematic behavior in kindergarten. The results indicated that there is a relation between mother-reported parental reactions to the negative emotion of a child and his/her problematic behavior. Child surgency is connected to externalizing problems. Some of our results differ from the conclusions of similar studies (e.g. no relation between maternal strategies and child's behavioral problems). This discrepancy could be caused by the small size of the research sample (data collection was disrupted by the state of emergency over COVID-19 declared by government). Thus, further research with a larger sample and standardized questionnaires is merited.

Teachers' and schoolmates' reactions to pupils' problem behavior
VOLMUTOVÁ, Simona
This bachelor thesis deals with problem or disorder behavior of primary school children and resulting teachers and classmates reactions. In the theoretical part I describe the difference between problematic and disorder behavior, I introduce the characteristics of discipline and behavioral disorders. I define basic terms like etiology, classification, prevention and behavioral disorder therapy. The last chapter of the theoretical part mentions institutions cooperating with the schools regarding this issue. The practical part shows the results of my observations and interviews. I tried to find out how this children problematic behavior manifests itself during the classes, whether they themselves are aware of it, whether their classmates notice it, and how they eventually react to it. I examined the same for teachers, i.e. what behavior disturbs them during lessons and how they react to it. I have found that classmates perceived problematic students, sometimes they also mind their behavior because they cannot concentrate on teaching. But this is not a reason for them to separate them from the group, on the contary, they are mostly friends with them. Teachers resent the insolence, vulgar expression and inappropriate alerting on yourself. The teacher must find a suitable way for each pupil to solve problems with him.
