The problem in general is to investigate whether or not there is a relationship between certain specific health factors in the individual preschool child and his personal relationships with other children.

Interpersonal conflict is a research topic increasingly gaining importance in project management. The purpose of this exploratory study was to find out how relationship conflict affects task conflict in projects. The research investigated the styles individuals prefer to handle task conflict with colleagues in bad personal relationship. The influence of four personal characteristic variables (Gender, Age, Work experience and Culture background) on the choice of conflict handling styles were examined at the same time. ROCI-II was used as the data collection instrument. Questionnaires were published through web-based online survey system. 182 valid responses were collected in two weeks. Data was analyzed with statistic software SPSS. The results revealed that integrating, compromising, avoiding, dominating and obliging are the five styles ranked from highest to lowest preferred by individuals to handle task conflicts with colleagues in bad personal relationships. High value of assertiveness and negative value of cooperativeness indicated that in a situation of relationship conflict, individuals are more assertive and less cooperative to deal with task conflicts with colleagues. Results of the study didn't show significant difference among personal characteristic groups. High correlations among conflict handling styles were discovered from this study. Implications of the research findings for theoretical and practical organizations or individuals are provided. Areas and recommendations for future research are suggested.

This diploma thesis addresses one of the modern marketing communication tools -- event marketing whose importance is steeply growing in these days not only abroad but also in the Czech Republic. The objective of this work is to analyze certain problems associated with event marketing involvement in the marketing communication mix of a company occurring in the business-to-business sector. The first part of the work is devoted to the theoretical introduction to different issues around event marketing. However, its main content is created by a view of the situation of the particular company -- MECAS ESI s.r.o. In this part I put emphasis on three event types, using them to carry out a deeper analysis with the aim to reveal their essential problems and to propose certain recommendations to the future. Regarding the applied methods, I use especially structured interviews with particular members of the company, further I gain some information also from a questionnaire survey carried out among event attendees and finally I complete these results with my own knowledge and experience from the company's environment. In the end I come to the conclusion that most of the problems are caused by the insufficient level of cooperation between the sales and marketing department.

Bakgrund Under de senaste åren har inköp uppmärksammats allt mer. Ökade kravfrån kunder och högre konkurrens har lett till att företag ser fördelar mednära affärsrelationer. Däremot har medelstora företag influenser frånbåde stora och små företag och det är därmed svårt att veta vad de har förutgångspunkt i affärsrelationer. Litteraturgenomgången visar att detsaknas forskning för enbart medelstora företags inköpsprocess. Av denanledningen är det intressant att undersöka medelstora företagsinköpsarbete inriktat på affärsrelationer med en större leverantör, för attse hur båda parter upplever affärsrelationen samt om medelstora företagoch små företag kan klassas in i samma definition. Syfte Syftet med den här studien är att öka förståelsen för medelstora företagsinköpsarbete, där fokus ligger på deras affärsrelationer med en störreleverantör. Studien avser att öka förståelsen för hur en kund och dessleverantör upplever och hanterar affärsrelationen. Metod Studien har en kvalitativ ansats och bygger på en flerfallstudie medintervjuer från ett leverantörsföretag samt tre kundföretag, för att ökaförståelsen för kundföretagens inköpsarbete samt för att se hur respektivepart upplever affärsrelationen. Slutsats Studiens resultat visar att medelstora företag arbetar mycket med atteffektivisera inköp och ser inköp som en värdeskapande funktion. Därförbör de inte klassas in i samma definition som små företag. För att enaffärsrelation ska fungera bra krävs framförallt förtroende mellanparterna och att makt inte utövas. / Background Purchasing has been more acknowledged during the last couple of years.Higher demands from customers have led to companies seeingadvantages with close business relationships. However, medium-sizedenterprises have influences from both big and small enterprises and it istherefore hard to know what starting position they have in businessrelationships. The literature review shows that research is lacking foronly medium-sized enterprise’s buying process. Therefore it isinteresting to study purchasing in medium-sized enterprises with focuson their business relationship with a larger supplier, to be able to see howboth parties perceive the business relationship and if medium-sizedenterprises can be classified in the same definition. Aim The aim with this study is to gain a greater insight of purchasing inmedium-sized enterprises, with a focus on their business relationshipwith a larger supplier. The study aims to gain a bigger insight of how acustomer and its supplier perceive and manage the business relationship. Methodology The study has a qualitative approach and is built on a case-study withinterviews from one supplier and three customers, to gain a biggerinsight of purchasing and to be able to see how each party perceive thebusiness relationship. Conclusion The results of the study show that medium-sized enterprises work a lot tomake purchasing more efficient and they all believe that purchasing is avalue adding function. Therefore they should not be classified in thesame definition as small-sized enterprises. One of the most importantcomponents in a business relationship is trust and power should not beused.

Zuzana Horáková Hurychová Dissertation: Structure and dynamics of close personal relationships ABSTRACT Keywords: Close personal relationship, components of close relationships, close relationship's dynamics, relationship type, methods of measuring close relationships, prototype approach, RCI, DOTEV The thesis deals with close personal relationships and their specific characteristics. Even though this area has been extensively explored abroad, it has received little attention in the Czech Republic. We can see a certain paradox: While there are no standard methods of measuring or specifying relationship characteristics of the Czech population, foreign literature is abundant in theories on how close personal relationships work, offering methods of their measurement. These methods usually focus on a specific component of the relationship. Therefore, it has not been possible to fully meet the objectives of this thesis. The first objective was to perform a theoretical mapping of close relationships, which is not fully possible due to the limited extent of the thesis. Thus, I only focused on the most frequently cited and most interesting, in my opinion, concepts that offer practical methods of measuring close relationships. The thesis offers a wide, though not exhaustive, overview that has served as a basis for...

La recherche qui suit se veut une étude exploratoire utilisant l’étude de cas pour caractériser les rapports personnels que les futurs enseignants du primaire se construisent avec les notions de variation et covariation au cours de leur formation initiale. La notion de fonction y est abordée compte tenu, entre autres, de son importance dans les programmes d’enseignement au secondaire et des difficultés que rencontrent les élèves dans l’apprentissage de cette notion. Une conceptualisation, par les élèves, de la notion de fonction comme relation entre des quantités variables passe par une acquisition préalable des notions de variation et covariation. Un début d’acquisition de ces notions est possible dès l’école primaire à travers des activités pré-algébriques qui utilisent les régularités avec les suites de nombres ou les patterns. Pour cette raison, les enseignants du primaire doivent être en mesure de faire apprendre les activités sur les régularités aux élèves. C’est pourquoi la formation des enseignants est abordée dans cette recherche en regardant, les connaissances nécessaires pour l’enseignement des mathématiques au primaire et les lacunes qui affectent cette formation. La recherche s’appuie sur la théorie anthropologique du didactique (TAD) qui a développé des outils conceptuels sur la notion de rapport au savoir. La TAD est un moyen de comprendre les choix d'une institution pour organiser l'enseignement des objets mathématiques, ainsi que la signification assignée à ces objets et les conséquences qu'il en résulte sur l'apprentissage. Cette compréhension passe par l'analyse des pratiques qui mettent en jeu les objets de savoirs mathématiques au sein d’une institution. Outre les notions d’institution, d’objet de savoir et de sujet, c’est surtout à partir de l’éclairage des notions de rapport personnel et de rapport institutionnel que l’exploration des rapports personnels des futurs enseignants du primaire est conduite. Dans cette recherche, comme nous nous intéressons au programme de formation initiale des futurs enseignants du primaire, nous prenons comme institution de référence le programme de Baccalauréat en Éducation Préscolaire et Enseignement Primaire (BEPEP). Une analyse de contenu des documents de référence dans l’institution BEPEP permet d’abord d’examiner le rapport institutionnel de BEPEP avec les objets de variation et covariation en regardant notamment la place et le rôle de ces objets au sein de l’institution. Puis une enquête (questionnaire et entrevues) essaie de saisir les traits significatifs des rapports personnels des futurs enseignants avec les mêmes objets. Enfin la triangulation des informations du programme de formation et celles de l’enquête permet de déterminer si les rapports personnels des futurs enseignants du primaire sont la conséquence du rapport institutionnel de BEPEP. Les résultats semblent indiquer que les activités impliquant les suites de nombres, les patterns, les notions de variation et covariation ne sont pas suffisamment présentes dans le programme de formation de nos participants. Ce vide institutionnel semble affecter les rapports personnels des futurs enseignants qui sont, pour la plupart, incapables d’utiliser ces activités et notions. / The following research is an exploratory study using the case study to characterize the personal relationships that primary preservice teachers build with the notions of variation and covariation during their initial training program. The notion of function is discussed considering, among others, its importance in educational programs at the secondary and difficulties students face when learning functions. To make students conceptualise the notion of function as a relationship between varying quantities requires first to make them acquire the notions of variation and covariation. This acquisition is possible from primary school through pre-algebraic activities using the sequences of numbers or patterns. This work should be supported by primary school teachers. That is why teacher training is also addressed in this research by looking, for example, the knowledge needed to teach mathematics and the gaps that may affect that training program. The research leans on the anthropological theory of the didactic (ATD) which has developed conceptual tools of the notion of relationship to knowledge. The ATD is a way to understand the choices made by an institution to organise the teaching of mathematical objects, and the meaning assigned to those objects and the consequences that result in learning. This understanding requires the analysis of practices that involve the objects of mathematical knowledge within any institution. Beyond the notions of institution, object of knowledge, about, it is mostly from the lighting of the notions of personal relationship and institutional relationship that the exploration of the personal relationships of the primary preservice teachers is lead. A content analysis of initial training of future teachers allows first examine the institutional relationship with the objects of variation and covariation in particular looking at the place and the role of these objects in the BEPEP institution. Then, a survey (questionnaire and interviews) tries to capture significant features of preservice teachers’ personal relationships with the same objects. Finally, the triangulation of the data collected from the initial training and from the survey attempts to determine whether personal relationships are the result of the institutional relationship. iv Results seem to indicate that mathematical and pedagogical activities involving numerical sequences, growing patterns, the notions of variation and covariation are not sufficiently present in the training program of our participants and, consequently, most of them are unable to efficiently use these activities and notions. This institutional void seems to affect the primary preservice teachers’ personal relationships that most part of them are unable to use these activities and notions.
