The main goal of the thesis is to find out whether there is a connection between Instagram usage and a change in the perception of one's own body image, more specifically an increase in dissatisfaction with one's own physical appearance. The supporting goals are to map the individual factors arising from this dissatisfaction and to describe the solutions that Instagram users have adopted to achieve the dream appearance. Through qualitative research, specifically by analysing in-depth interviews with bloggers presenting extreme slenderness on social networks, the life stories of respondents are analysed in order to reveal how interest in body shape developed in the presence of social networks and new media. The interviews reveal the interest of Instagram users in watching and sharing photos presenting extreme slenderness and clarify their connection to eating disorders. Instead of triggering such diseases, Instagram manifests itself as a tool for maintaining and remaining in a new mental and physical condition. By publishing photographs showing a very thin body, women assure themselves of their own attractiveness, and thus also influence their self-presentation, which results in an equivalent relationship of satisfaction from slenderness and satisfaction from their self presentation.

Title: Evaluation of the effects of different walking types on the postural stability in healthy seniors - a systematic review. Objective: The main objective of this diploma thesis is the evaluation of the impact of different types of walking on the postural stability in healthy elderly, based on the available resources corresponding to the established inclusion criteria. Force platforms were used as the tool to evaluate and to objectify postural stability in all studies included. These platforms are capable of measurement the level of postural stability by recording stance excursions in multiple directions. This thesis makes efforts to review the level of the possible future inclusion of different walking types in the process of physical therapy among older patients, regarding to improve the postural stability as well as the fall prevention in these patients. The next goals of this diploma thesis are to determine which type of walking appears to be the most efficient comprising the fall prevention as well as to assess the optimal frequency of the ordinary walking performance to achieve the same objective. Methods: This diploma thesis is processed in the form of a systematic review based on the available literary resources. First part of the thesis comprises the theoretical basis and the...

This diploma thesis deals with the interaction of male members of the fitness culture with content referring to this topic on social media. The diploma thesis examines the connections between the monitored content, the desire to build masculinity, the satisfaction of men with their own body, or the idea of an ideal male body. The aim of this thesis is to answer the questions of how men interpret media content, which suppose to inspire the creation of healthy lifestyle habits, and whether, or how, this content contributes to their approach to the fitness culture. Research shows that men attribute a significant influence to social media on their concept of fitness as a lifestyle. These participants talk about the strengths and weaknesses of the content of fitspiration, which affect the perception of their own body and mental well-being. Although, social media contributions motivate them to improve themselves and achieve better results, images of masculinity on social media force them to focus on the aesthetics of the body, the amount of muscles rather than on the quality of life, health and other benefits from the regular physical activity.

The presented Master's thesis describes the work of the Tofflers and it is primarily about their view of information and information policy. According to the Tofflers, the human race went through three developmental steps that are characterized by the used resources of production. The first wave (which is how the Tofflers call the steps) was agricultural, the second wave industrial and now the human race is in information wave, where information is the main economic driver. Because of this fact, it is necessary to develop strategies for access to information, information technologies and information channels. Keywords: information policy, information society, the third wave, future shock, influence of ICT

The paper describes the development of water quality based on selected pollution indicators in the source catchments of the Berounka River (Mže catchment, Radbuza catchment, Úhlava catchment and Úslava catchment of selected sub-catchments) on profiles located above the water quality monitoring profile Bukovec on the Berounka River from 1981 to 2019. Furthermore, the flow dependence during the monitored period and from it the predominant type of pollution in the given catchment is determined on the basis of the course of regression curves and the value of the coefficient of determination R2 . Based on the average annual concentrations, the evolution of the given pollution indicators on selected profiles is described for the longest possible monitoring period for which water quality data are available. Their evolution within a calendar year can be determined when the flow rate is exceeded. By means of mass transport, the actual amount of pollutants can be determined on the basis of the concentration and the flow rate. The specific mass transport then express the intensity of removal from an area of 1 km2 for a given time interval, which has been chosen here as well as the pollutant loads for one year. The observed results are then converted into graphical output. Based on the data, it is possible to...

The subject of my diploma thesis is a detailed static calculation of the post-tensioned concrete road bridge across Bystrica creek near Banska Bystrica in Slovakia. The bridge is element of turning ramp a motorway R1. The spatial curvature continuous bridge has 9 fields. It was made a spatial curvature computational model of the bridge for a structural analysis. The model was comparison with a straight computational model of the bridge. It is made comparison effect of the construction bridge in stages on the size of the internal forces too. The load-bearing structure was checked according to CSN EN 1992-1-1, CSN EN 1992-2 and CSN 73 6214.

The thesis "The Influence of Media on Body Image with Emphasis on the Issue of Eating Disorders" deals with the impact of media on body perception regarding the current beauty ideal, the cult of slenderness as well as the causes of eating disorder spreading in today's world. This thesis aims to determine how media influences body image of the current society and what part it has in the origin of eating disorders. In terms of this aim, the thesis is divided into theoretical background, a part about body image, followed by the part about beauty ideal, then eating disorders and research. The theoretical part discusses the theory of social and media reality, expected media impacts on people as well as selected theories concerning the media impact on body image. The next part deals with the term body image. The third part involves discussion about the ideal of beauty and introduces three current theories about direct impact of media on body image. It also shows some examples from today's media concerning the topic. The fourth part deals with the eating disorders and their media discourse, followed by few examples of their spreading trend and also campaigns against them. The quantitative analysis aims to find out about today's population body image, the importance of appearance and connection between media...

TITLE: Headmaster's influence at educational results of pupils AUTHOR: Hana Kindlová DEPARTMENT: School Management Centre SUPERVISOR: PhDr. Jan Voda, Ph.D. ABSTRACT: The topic of this thesis is to investigate the influence of the headmaster on pupils' educational results. The aim is to suggest and verify a model suitable for analyzing the influence of the headmaster on pupils' educational results. The basic research question is the following: "How can we analyze the relationship between pupils' educational results and various aspects of work of the headmaster?" The objective was achieved by the following manner. At first, they were defined by means of the educational results of pupils in the theoretical part and, based on the study of foreign resources, the fields of work of the headmasters that have an influence on pupils' educational results were listed. The influence of the headmaster on educational results of a selected research sample of pupils was examined, described and quantified in the research part by means of a survey (in the form of an interview), its analysis, synthesis and evaluation. Subsequently, the relationship between the quality of work of the headmaster and the educational results of pupils was defined and evaluated according to the results achieved in NIQES testing by pupils of the...
