The age category of respondents was 13-15 years. Weight proportionality (underweight, overweight and obesity) and risky eating behaviour were evaluated. The data obtained were evaluated with Excel and a faculty statistical program to evaluate the statistical signifikance of differences between these subgroups. Results: A higher prevalence of risky eating behaviours (e.g. misreporting own weight, skipping daily meals) was found in a Prague elementary school compared to a small town multi-year grammar school and a higher prevalence of risky eating behaviours in girls compared to boys. In terms of weight proportionality, there was a higher prevalence of overweight and obesity in boys compared to girls and a higher prevalence of underweight in girls compared to boys....

Hnátková, Petra ; Rosenfeldová, Jana (advisor) ; Houdek, Petr (referee)
The bachelor thesis focuses on the topic of marketing aimed at children in the online gaming environment, specifically on the children's perception and understanding of it. The theoretical part defines the concept of marketing aimed at children and deals with the associated legislation. It then examines marketing in the online gaming environment, its development and its form in two selected cases, i.e. within the Roblox gaming platform and in the Fortnite game. Subsequently, the thesis examines children's perceptions of marketing based on previous research and the critical perspective of experts on marketing in the online gaming environment aimed at children. The research part of the thesis investigates the perceptions and understandings of marketing to children in Roblox and Fortnite by children aged 8-17. The results of the quantitative questionnaire survey show that only two-fifths of children understand the marketing purpose of brands within games. However, this ability improves with age. At the same time, a possible correlation was found between understanding of the marketing purpose and two other factors: time spent with the games and interest in making purchases in both of the games.

This thesis explores the reflected experience of young adults growing up in a Christian community. It focuses primarily on the impact of Christian education and community on the adolescent, specifically on the formation of the individual. The goal of the research was to better understand the specific paradox that, although theory suggests that Christian community should be a source of support for the adolescent and should contribute to a healthy self-concept, adolescent often experience negative emotions such as feeling of anxiety, failure and inadequacy in the context of community. Theory was based on the concept of God's grandchildren and the research question asked whether, if so how specifically, this concept is reflected in the experiences of these adolescents. To obtain answers to this question, seven semi- structured interviews were conducted with young adults who had grown up in a Christian community. Thematic analysis enabled themes that more deeply revealed the specific experience of the respondents. The themes were compared with the characteristics of God's grandchildren and the concept proved to be a largely useful tool for understanding the complex impact of Christian education on the adolescent. The conclusions of the thesis call for sensitive approach and support of teenage believers...
