The aim of this contribution is to convey the knowledge from the practice about the hurting impact on the psyche of the family and the bereaved of the victims of crimes, tragic events and the extraordinary disasters in case the information about the event is published on the social networks and news portals on the Internet. It is not the aim of this paper to name all the reactions and possibilities. It aims to present a different point of view on the publishing of this kind of information and makes the readers to think about. We live in the time when anything can be documented, filmed, photographed, sent and published on the social network really easily. It can be seen how media are able to react quickly to the tragic events. It occurs very often that the photograph from the place of the tragedy appears on the Internet much earlier than the family related to this case is informed. And even the situation that the mentioned families get the information about the tragedy just through the Internet is not an exception. This paper outlines the experience of the affected persons, who can read the story and the comment of different users about the tragedy that caught them personally. It is possible that published information is more or less in correspondence with the reality but the most hurting is the fact that their private details can be revealed, in many times even their intimate details. This takes part in the secondary victimization. Then the crisis intervention by the police and possible further following therapy and consultancy is more complicated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The causes the counterproductive behaviour may lay within the organisation or they may stem from individual needs. The effects of the counterproductive behaviour are economic, social, psychological, among others stress and fluctuation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper surveys a number of prison inmates with dyslexia. Various foreign studies have proven a link between dyslexia and criminality. They show a higher incidence of dyslexia among prisoners. A similar research was conducted between 2012 and 2013 in Horní Slavkov prison. A sample involved 113 respondents aged 22-65. Data were collected via Raven Standard Progressive Matrices, personal history questionnaires, interviews, and a complex assessment battery on specific learning difficulties. The results in the Czech prison also demonstrated a significantly higher rate of individuals with dyslexia among the imprisoned than in standard population. The sample included 34% of individuals with dyslexia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article presents the results of the qualitative research, which pursued the topic of satisfaction in relationships in Czech couples. The results are compared with the outcomes of several studies from abroad. The first part of the paper consists of a brief introduction to the topic and present the results of studies with a similar design. The second part describes the research, which was part of Zuzana Kalousovaʼs thesis in 2017.

To analyze the data, we used grounded theory. The results were ten categories that contributed to satisfaction in relationships: overcoming of differences and obstacles, doing things together, communication, endurance, not trying to solve everything, harmony, safety, good choice of spouse, stable financial situation, family.

The core information is the overview of possible support that could be provided to grieving people with intelectual disabilities such us foreknowledge and education about the death, chosen specifics of professional counseling and specific therapy.

The paper provides an overview of cases of childhood obesity which were apparently caused by parental neglect of these children. In certain foreign countries particularly morbid obesity is considered a signal that the child's lifestyle is not acceptable. Social workers in these countries cooperate with other professionals (such as paediatricians etc.) in an attempt to construct more differentiated measures to search for these cases of childhood obesity more effective and possibly with less restrictive means of assistance. In comparison with these international experiences, the experiences of our social workers with this kind of childhood obesity as a warning signal seem apparently rather rare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is based on the thesis made by the author himself and defended in 2015. It focuses on fairy tale movies and their socializing role in the transfer of values. Fairy tales often contain values and learn children to distinguish different ways of behavior and relating to the world. Film as a medium is very popular and fairy tale movies are therefore highly watched; their importance for the children development and the adoption of basic values should therefore be explored. The empirical research consists of a content analysis of six selected Czech (and Czechoslovak) fairy tales and the coding of situations that are worthwhile in terms of values. Based on these data, it is possible to identify trends in the concept of values across different fairy tales. For example, older fairy tales are more distinctive in values and therefore more educational for children while the newer ones tend to focus on entertainment and fusion of genres.

The paper is focused on the issue of social support of pupils of the Roma ethnic group who are in the adolescence. The aim of the research was to map social support – namely its resources (mom, father, teacher, friends, classmates, teacher assistant, social worker) and types (emotional, instrumental, provided through evaluation and information) in the frequency and importance of perceived social support. The secondary goal was to compare the resources and types of social support with respect to the type of settlement in which respondents live. The research sample consisted of 79 pupils of the seventh to ninth year of elementary school in Rakúsy. Rakúsy rank among the municipalities with one of the highest shares of the Roma population in Slovakia. 46 boys and 33 girls participated in the research, 61 pupils came from the outpost and 18 pupils from the village. We made a deliberate qualified selection. The main method was the CASSS-CZ questionnaire (Questionnaire of social support of pupils and adolescents – Czech version), further data was supplemented by a structured interview. We used descriptive statistics and pair U-test. Research shows that pupils most often receive social support from their mother, who is also the most important source for them. The least important source of support for them is the teacher. Smallest support is provided from a social worker. As far as the individual types of support are concerned, they are mostly provided with informational support, but emotional support is important as well. Some statistically significant differences in individual types and sources of social support were confirmed with respect to the type of settlement of respondents. Contribution of the article is to find out the preferred sources and types of support in children of the Roma ethnic group and subsequent recommendations to practice.

Principal’s vision along with the style of school leadership are important factors influencing school culture and thus also relationships among the teaching staff. The aim of the present paper is to present a part of the results from a series of 12 case studies of elementary schools focusing on principals’ visions, the resulting leadership styles and their reflection in ways of fostering relationships among the staff. Each case study consisted of a combination of data collection methods: questionnaire survey among teachers, interview with school management, interviews with selected teachers, analysis of school documents, and observation of school life, while the main source of data for the current contribution were 58 interviews with directors, deputy directors and teachers from 12 case schools. Relationships among teaching staff have emerged as a key value in principal’s vision. Consequently, school management uses various practices to promote professional and/or personal relationships among teachers. Based on the case studies, we identified three basic types of principals’ visions, which differ in the roles that leadership assigns to relationships among teachers. The types of visions were labeled “hearters,” “managers,” and “survivors.” The length of the time in management function and the specificity of the school compared to the others shoved both as significant factors influencing principal’s vision.
