Development of social and emotional intelligence of preschool-age children through methods of drama education Abstract This thesis presents the concept of emotional intelligence, the level of which is based on self- awareness, self-regulation, self-motivation, empathy and social skills. Emotional intelligence is herein placed in the context of evolutionary development and anatomy of emotions, focusing on the possibilities of its development through pedagogical work. The main goal of the project was to evaluate whether preschool children can be developed in this direction through regular drama education lessons. The evaluation was based on an experimental method relying on a comparison between the results of the experimental and control groups. After 5 months of regular dramatic work, the children from the experimental group manifested a more significant improvement in their emotional and social skills when compared to the children from the control group. The presented project thus provides an unconventional source of inspiration for systematic work with children's emotions within the typical day-to-day schedule at kindergartens. Keywords: emotional intelligence, emotional and social skills, drama education, preschool age

Infant handling in male Barbary macaques
KUBĚNOVÁ, Barbora
Non-maternal manipulation of infants also called infant handling in male Barbary macaques attracts scientific attention due to its intensity in combination with promiscuity of the species that should select against paternal care. This PhD thesis consists of four studies that investigate male infant handling in wild group of Barbary macaques in Morocco. The studies are based on original data and the results provide new information about the behaviour and thus significantly contribute to its explanation. First, we offer new insights into the relationship between distribution of mating and infant handling, and ask whether it can be better explained by paternal effort or future mating success with infants' mothers. Second, we broaden the range of explanations beyond the original hypothesis of relationship management for male-infant-male interactions. Third, we focus on the question whether males use knowledge of third party relationship when distributing infant handling interactions. Fourth, we demonstrate how care of infants can surprisingly contribute to the reintroduction of an infant who is not native in its group.

The issue of the development of emotional intelligence in organizations
Tejkalová, Magdalena ; Lačev, Alek (advisor) ; Matej, Matej (referee)
In my work I deal with the development of emotional intelligence in the organization, which is Zbraslav Veterinary Clinic. For my research, I start from theoretical bases of emotional intelligence, which are currently accepted. Emotional intelligence theory is further supported by the knowledge of emotions, so one chapter devoted to emotion.
For the development of the current definition of emotional intelligence, on which I rely on the job, it is important to know the different views of what emotional intelligence actually means and what folders it contains. Other chapters are therefore dedicated to different definitions of emotional intelligence from various authors and also the connection between emotional intelligence and other intelligence components (eg. The intellectual, social, practical, etc.).
The last theoretical chapter is devoted to the development of the folders of emotional intelligence by Goleman (1997), and I use there exercises from book by Pletzer (2009).
The practical part of my work is based on a survey among employees of the clinic and an interview with the owner of the clinic MVDr. Eduard Voldřich. In the questionnaires, I mainly focused on the degree of emotional intelligence depending on the with age, education and occupational position. Thanks to the interview, I received information on possible development of emotional intelligence of employees of the clinic and also about what barriers need to be assessed.
