"Representation of the environment in Russian and Czech press" This diploma thesis deals with the representation of the environment in the Russian and Czech press. For my research I chose two news weekly papers: Respekt and Argumenty a fakta issued between the years 2007-2011. Quantitative content analysis and qualitative frame analysis were used for data processing. The theoretical part describes the development of the media, their influence on society, mechanism of news construction (agenda setting, news values, objectivity, bias, access to news, work with sources), the development and state of the Czech and Russian media, concepts of nature and the development of environmental reporting. In the practical part I found out how the environment and nature are viewed and interpreted by these printed media in the content of their messages. Key words: environment; nature; media; representation; agenda-setting; content analysis; frame analysis; framing; weekly magazíne; Respekt; Argumenty a fakta

Bakgrund: Andelen äldre i befolkningen ökar i samhället samtidigt som hälsoproblemen ökar för de allra flesta. Ungefär hälften av de patienter som vårdas på sjukhus är äldre människor. Äldre patienter är sårbara och riskerar att utsättas för sjukdomar och skador. Det är lätt att människor upplever att deras integritet blir kränkt på grund av sjukdomar, särskilt demenssjukdomar, eftersom demenssjukdom påverkar minne, andra kognitiva förmågor och beteenden som väsentligt påverkar en persons förmåga att upprätthålla sin dagliga verksamhet. Allt detta kan leda till att den äldre patienten har svårt att skydda sin integritet.   Syftet: Syftet med denna studie är att beskriva sjuksköterskans erfarenheter av att bevara integritet hos äldre med demenssjukdom på sjukhus.   Metod: Studien är en systematisk litteraturstudie med kvalitativ metasyntes där 19 artiklar har analyserats för att besvara studiens syfte.   Resultat: Resultatet består av fyra huvudkategorier: att bevara patienternas fysiska integritet, att bevara patienternas psykiska integritet, att bevara patienternas moraliska integritet, samt den organisatoriska aspekten av att bevara patienternas integritet.   Slutsats: Sjuksköterskor är i stort behov av utbildning om demenssjukdom för att kunna bevara integritet hos personer med demens. Att samarbeta med en geriatrisk specialist när det behövs kan bidra till en god omvårdnad. Äldre personens livshistoria är central för att bevara patienternas integritet. / Background: The proportion of elderly people in the population is increasing in societies and the health problems are increasing for the vast majority. About half of the patients in hospitals are elderly people. Elderly patients are vulnerable and at risk of illness and injury. It is easy for people to feel that their personal sphere is being exposed because of illness, especially dementia, because dementia affects memory, other cognitive abilities and behaviors that significantly affect a person's ability to maintain their daily activities. All this can cause the elderly patient to have difficulty protecting his or her integrity.   Aim: The purpose of this study is to describe the nurse's experience of preserving the integrity of the elderly who suffer from dementia in hospitals.   Method: The study is a systematic literature study, which uses qualitative meta-synthesis to analyze 19 articles with the objective of answering the study's purpose.   Results: The result of the study consists of four main categories: preserving the patient's physical integrity, preserving the patient's mental integrity, preserving the patient's moral integrity, as well as the organizational aspect of preserving patients' integrity.   Conclusion: Nurses are in dire need of competence about dementia in order to be able to preserve the integrity of a person with dementia. Collaborating with a geriatric specialist when needed can contribute to good nursing. The life history of the elderly person is central to preserving patients' integrity.

Thesis titled "The Change of Media image of Israel in Czech Press at the Turn of 80's and 90's" deals with the construction of the media image of Israel in the Rudé právo and Mladá fronta dailies using examples of news about the Lebanon War in 1982 and the outbreak of the first Intifada in 1987.

Thesis: The main contribution of D. Orem's self-care theory is that, using adequate methods, it leads the nurses to respect patients' own conception of self-care. Key words: Patient - nurse relationships, Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory, D. E. Orem, human actions, respect for autonomy, NANDA taxonomy, non-compliance, responsibility. This dissertation thesis deals with the issues of a relationship between a patient and a healthcare worker, or more precisely a nurse, all from the point of view of patient self-care in the sense of deliberate action that is conducted by the patient for the purpose of sustaining their health and realizing their life plans. Ethical aspects of Orem's Self-Care Deficit Theory consist in the approach to a person that emphasizes the human nature of a human being that develops within the community - among other people, that becomes unique and that cares about their own being. Self-care deficit nursing theory is compared to NANDA taxonomy II with respect to a patient's autonomy. Both approaches to nursing care are studied from the point of view of their assumptions, theoretical basis, the diagnostic process, communication, personal competence of nurses and the aims of health care. Attention is also paid to the situations when a patient is not willing to take part in the...

The work deals with the mutual relationship between politics and religio, churchz and state and with the reality, that the religious education has its political size. Its theoretical part characterises the relationschip of religion with the politics, its situation of today´s culture and the way of education of the young people to the understanding for christianity and the different religions and cultures.

Current society is much diversified as regards its culture of customs and trends encountered also in the eating habits of people. Our health-care facilities provide treatment to a good number of patients of different religions and, consequently, different eating habits. We certainly do not want the patients to be only passive recipients of medical care. That is why the nurses have to put some effort into learning about the individual eating habits of their patients. A nurse informed about food that a patient wishes or does not wish to be given is able to use her own initiative in providing what is needed to satisfy the requirements. In this way the nurse will involve the patients in the treatment and boost their confidence in the health-care staff. The theoretical section investigates primarily nutritional habits of believers of some selected religions, namely Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Roman Catholic Church and Brethren Church. Other parts of the theoretical section analyzed some alternative nutritional trends. Also mentioned was food provision at health-care facilities and the competences of nutrition therapeutists and assistants. The empirical section formulated four objectives: (1) to specify the main features of nutritional trends met in the selected religions; (2) to measure the level of nurses' expertise in the eating habits associated with the selected religions; (3) to find out whether the nurses in providing the care respect the clients' nutritional trends as related to the selected religions; and (4) to investigate the importance and observance of specific nutritional trends in the selected religions as perceived by the clients and the nurses. The methodology relied on a quality-oriented survey performed through controlled interviews with the clients, and a quantity-oriented survey conducted through questionnaires distributed among clients and nurses. The qualitative survey was to answer these questions: What eating habits can be encountered in clients professing the selected religions? Does proper observation of the clients' eating habits make the clients satisfied with the nursing care? The quantitative survey was based on assumptions that (1) nurses ignorant of the nutritional trends will make the clients unhappy about the nursing care, and that (2) proper attention paid to varied eating habits in different cultures will make the job of nursing teams in health-care facilities a more burdensome task. The survey has been conducted in the regions of South Bohemia and Central Bohemia. Judging from the results, the objectives have been met, the hypotheses confirmed, and the research questions objectivized. The work resulted in an Education Sheet to be used by both nurses and the public.

The diploma thesis (D)evaluation at School deals with the phenomenon of evaluation in the school environment in a broader sense. It focuses in particular on the psychosocial context of evaluation processes. It is a qualitative study focusing on diffrent forms of assessment by teaching staff and their influence on the behaviour of pupils. The study is based on data collected at several school institutions and is mainly based on hundreds of hours of observation and dozens of interviews. Most of the evaluation methods described in the thesis are part of the so- called hidden curriculum of the school and are often not reflected by the teaching staff. These are in particular different types of assessments from position of power, which can negatively affect the class climate and also have a potentially destructive effect on the development of pupils' personality. The thesis is devoted, of course, to more appropriate, respectful methods of evaluation. But it also points to the fact that even such assessments are no guarantee that pupils' behaviour will be disciplined and cooperative. The thesis discusses various modes of pupil responses to power and respectful evaluations by teaching staff, depending on the type of tune-up class as a social group. The main aim of the thesis is to highlight the gap between theory...

This study examines the European council and its connection to CFSP and the European identity. It will give a perspective of the change in common foreign-security policy from the Maastricht Treaty to the Lissabon treaty. The study will reproduce a perspective through time and describe the main ideas in CFSP and make a connection to how it created a European identity. The empirical material will conclude the European council results. To give more perspective, an idea analysis will be operating to capture the ideas of the various materials describing European identity and the CFSP. Henceforth using the empirical material to conclude a result for the analysis. For the analysis to be complete subjects such as normative power and actorness will have a part in the work in CFSP. Social constructivism as a theory will help to understand the power that European identity has in international cooperation. To conclude this, abstract the study will structure a difference in the work of the CFSP and its strategy to promoted democracy, and peace.

This diploma thesis deals with the power of language and the relation between language and thought, perception and experience. The topic is viewed through the "Respektovat a být respektován" (To Respect and To Be Respected) educational method. The main assumption of this method is that the way the parent communicates with the child affects educational success as well as the behaviour of the child and the values and attitude he or she will have as an adult. This premise is empirically tested by interviews with parents and observations in families, which show how the specific way of communication (which is based on particular grammatical and pragmatic rules) influences the behaviour and experience of both the child and the parent.
