BOBOČKA, Jakub
The work entitled " Self -harm of young people and it's social impact " was prepared as a final bachelor thesis in the framework of Social Work study programe at the Faculty of Health and Social Studies, the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. The aim of the bachelor thesis was to find out what social areas of life of young people who are undergoing the self -harm are affected and how. The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical part and practical part. In the theoretical part, with the help of books and articles, I tried to summarize the topic of self -harm. I described disorders that can be diagnosed together with self -harm. I further described risk factors, types of self -harm and also the process of self -harm. At the end of the theoretical part, I discussed areas that can be influenced by self -harm and with which I also deal with in my research. It is a summary framework for a given issue, which is the basis for the practical part. The research was created with 5 respondents I either knew or I was given a contact to them. Among them were two informatnts from Prague and three from České Budějovice and all of them were women. I first addressed the informants by phone or e-mail, then I met them and asked questions I had created in advance. I did not record the informants because I wrote their answers directly in the record sheet. In the discussion of my bachelor thesis, research results are summarized and commented. In the discussion I also comment on which social area is most influenced by the practice of self-harm, what are the tendencies to self -harm and what are the most common places for self -harm. At the end of the thesis, the contribution of this bachelor thesis is discussed and it is also mentioned how it could be used and how it could be useful.

Legal drugs and their use by students at secondary schools in the of Tábor district.
PECLOVÁ, Kristýna
Legal drugs and their use by students at secondary schools in the Tábor district Drugs currently represent a major problem worldwide, affecting each of us. The Czech Republic ranks among the countries with the increasing trend of excessive alcohol consumption. Alcohol consumption in this society is considered an absolutely normal and tolerated phenomenon, equally as smoking of tobacco products and excessive use of non-prescription drugs. Alcohol and drugs are not only legal but their consumption is offered practically wherever you go. The period of adolescence involves experimenting as its natural part. Legal drugs are the first things the adolescents experiment with and for this reason my bachelor thesis focuses on the use of alcohol, tobacco, caffeine and medicinal drugs. The theoretical part of the thesis summarizes facts about the individual legal drugs (alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, medicinal drugs) and analyzes related issues. The purpose of my bachelor thesis was to find out facts about the use of legal drugs at secondary schools in the district of Tábor and I have used some partial goals and previously established hypotheses to achieve it. The partial goals included identification of the first experience with legal drugs and quantities consumed by secondary school students. In order to verify the established hypotheses I have used quantitative research and the method of interviewing by questionnaires. The research group consisted of 290 respondents, from which 108 boys and 101 girls. 7 hypotheses were formulated for the research. The hypothesis H1 assumed that boys consume alcohol more often than girls. The hypothesis H2 assumed that boys consume tobacco more often than girls. The hypothesis H3 assumed that boys have the first experience with alcohol earlier than girls. The hypothesis H4 assumed that boys have the first experience with tobacco earlier than girls. The hypothesis H5 assumed girls consume more caffeine than boys. The hypothesis H6 assumed that girls consume more medical drugs than boys. The hypothesis H7 assumed that students of secondary vocational schools consume more alcohol than students of secondary comprehensive schools. All those previously established hypotheses have been confirmed. This bachelor thesis may be used by the general public and by professionals in the Czech Republic to increase the level of awareness about the use of legal drugs. The thesis has brought some new findings and it has mapped the situation in consumption of legal drugs by students of secondary schools in the district of Tábor. Therefore the thesis may contribute to an effective prevention among this group of adolescent youth.
