Sociální psychologie je pojímána jako integrální věda o lidském chování, na které je třeba se dívat jako na organicky nejkomplexnější úroveň životních procesů. Publikace představuje vybraná témata sociální psychologie, která spojuje pod aplikovanou podobu tzv. sociální efektivity, jejímž projevem je sociálněpsychologická synergie. Sociální efektivita je teoretickým modelem propojujícím různé přístupy sociální psychologie. Autor strukturuje výklad podle prostorově definovaných oblastí chování (jedinec, skupina a společnost). Tento prostorový pohled doplňuje rovinou časovou, v níž sleduje jednotlivé etapy rozvoje (biologické determinanty, socializační faktory, etické aspekty individuace). Třetí rovinu představuje etika (vztah hédonismu a eudaimonie). Výklad čerpá také z poznatků antropologie, filozofie, ekonomie, historie, religionistiky a etiky. Publikace je proto určena nejen studentům sociální psychologie, ale také všem zájemcům o příbuzné společenskovědní obory.

Ján Hreško

This teaching guide is intended for teachers and instructors who are introducing new readers to Dante’s Divine Comedy, in particular the first cantica, Inferno, offering support and a grounding in the cultural background of one of the most important works of European medieval literature. Rather than forming yet another academic contribution to the study of Dante and his work, the guide focuses on using a guided seminar reading method within study groups and fostering meaningful discussions about the central themes and issues of the Inferno. Under the guidance of a teacher, students are encouraged to engage actively with the motifs and moral universe of this classic literary work – a primary source that cannot be replaced by any retelling. The proposed interpretations draw on established scholarly commentaries to deepen the readers’ understanding of the text, and each lesson is accompanied by a selected bibliography. The guide includes thematic introductions presenting Dante Alighieri as both author and protagonist within the Divine Comedy. It also offers carefully selected questions designed to foster textual comprehension and stimulate discussion during seminar readings of selected cantos of the Inferno. In addition, the publication includes special lessons on associated literary and artistic works. The guide features a wealth of original illustrations and an extensive range of visual materials. The course thus builds upon the traditional practice of seminar-based readings of works by the great authors, an approach which continues to form part of the curriculum at many liberal arts colleges, by integrating innovative techniques into this established educational method.

Jak vypadá a funguje lidské tělo? Z jakých částí je složeno? Jak je v něm vše propojeno, integrováno a řízeno v zájmu celku? Jak tělo zajišťuje bezpečí a obranu před nepřáteli zvenčí i zevnitř? Jak se rozmnožuje a přichází na svět? Souvisí naše tělo s oblastí duše, ducha a vztahů? A jak? Pokud vás zajímají odpovědi na tyto a další otázky, je tato kniha určena právě vám. Druhé, aktualizované a doplněné vydání publikace seznamuje se stavbou lidského těla v rozsahu, který je náplní studia psychologie, pedagogiky, sociální práce a dalších humanitních (nelékařských) oborů. Text přináší přehledné a čtivé kompendium dvou rozsáhlých teoretických oborů medicíny – anatomie a fyziologie –, aniž by příliš zabíhal do medicínských podrobností. Přibližuje oblast buněčné biologie, popisuje typy tkání v lidském těle a představuje základy celostního přístupu, který člověka chápe jako bio-psycho-sociálně-spirituální komplex, existující v určitém prostoru a čase. Nejobsáhlejší část knihy se věnuje jednotlivým orgánovým soustavám. Vedle původních ilustrací, fotografií a snímků z lékařských vyšetření výklad zcela nově doplňují fotografie skutečných lidských orgánů, které zachycují jejich velikost, tvar a mnohdy také strukturu. Aktuální vydání obohacují rovněž četné poznámky pod čarou, které přinášejí zajímavosti o probíraných tématech a podněty k zamyšlení. Publikace je primárně určena pro studenty a absolventy uvedených humanitních oborů, může však oslovit i zájemce o daná studia či čtenáře z řad širší veřejnosti. Kéž je vám k užitku.

The publication provides a systematic overview of the core models of systemic therapy and its theoretical as well as practical foundations. The opening chapters of the textbook outline the historical development of psychotherapeutic approaches and the shift toward the systemic paradigm, which emphasizes the importance of relationships, context, and circularity in understanding psychological phenomena.

The core of the text focuses on the philosophical foundations of systemic therapy, particularly general systems theory, cybernetics, constructivism, and social constructionism, all of which have significantly shaped the understanding of reality, knowledge, and the therapeutic process. Subsequent chapters address biological and social foundations, including the concepts of autopoiesis, cognition, and communication, and their relevance to the functioning of social systems. The publication further elaborates on the practical implications of these theoretical frameworks, especially in relation to causality, language, and the construction of social reality. Systemic understanding of problems is presented as a dynamic and relational process maintained through interactional patterns within the system.

The conference focused on current trends in the research of porous materials and their applications in environmental, catalytic, energy-related, and biomedical fields. The event provided an interdisciplinary platform for the exchange of the latest scientific knowledge in the design, synthesis, characterization, and practical utilization of porous materials.

Particular attention was devoted to their application in adsorption and separation processes, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis, energy storage and conversion, as well as in biological and medical applications. The published abstracts reflect current challenges related to sustainable development, green technologies, and advanced materials solutions. The proceedings offer a comprehensive overview of the current state of porous materials research at the international level and document the dynamic development of this field with significant overlap into environmental chemistry, materials science, and chemical engineering.

Publikace si klade za cíl zprostředkovat informovanému čtenáři vhled do problematiky psychedeliky asistované psychoterapie (PAP) – přístupu, ve kterém je využíváno rozšířeného stavu vědomí pomocí psychedelických látek k zefektivnění psychoterapeutického procesu.

Vstup psychedelik do lékařské a psychologické praxe je předznamenán rychle rostoucím počtem klinických studií s těmito látkami. Díky pokroku neurozobrazovacích studií dnes máme o trochu jasnější představu o působení psychedelik v lidském mozku. Poznání těchto mechanismů spolu se studiemi zaměřenými na nefarmakologické faktory účinnosti nám umožňují moderní metodiku PAP lépe definovat a dále rozvíjet. Publikace se zaměřuje na práci s psychedeliky v kontextu klinických studií i moderní psychoterapie a obsahuje řadu konkrétních postupů a kazuistik klientů.

Kniha je určena především klinickým pracovníkům a psychoterapeutům, ale i dalším čtenářům se zájmem o problematiku.

The submitted monograph, "Colloquial Lexemes in Journalistic Texts," presents an original perspective on the analysis and description of lexical and grammatical expressive means in the examined communication field.

The main research problem is the colloquialization of expressive means as a marked feature in publicly published journalistic texts. The starting point of the research itself was the search for lexical units with the stylistic qualifier of colloquiality in the "Short Dictionary of the Slovak Language." Their presence and frequency, as well as any potential shifts in meaning, were verified in publicly accessible media communications.

Since this is research into "living language," the source material consists of journalistic texts in the Slovak National Corpus database.

The anthology was created based on the study of archival volumes of Živena preserved in the Slovak National Library in Martin and the selection of material representing samples of texts that reflect the spirit of the times and contribute to the image of the contemporary modern woman.

The selection of articles from 1919 to 1928 uncovers the cultural atmosphere at the beginning of the 20th century when, thanks to emancipation efforts, doors were opening for women into public and professional life. Students from the 3rd and 4th years of the School of Applied Arts in Košice, under the guidance of teachers in photographic design and Slovak language and literature, were involved in preparing the illustrative component of the anthology, whose artistic interpretations are part of the publication. Their contribution meets the criteria for combining science and practice with a focus on popularizing research results.

The textbook "Literary Story as a Tool for Moral Education" aims to contribute to the preparation of future teachers of ethical education, as well as students from other fields, particularly in the humanities. It focuses on an area that remains trivialized and marginalized—gender-sensitive education and training. The author operates under the assumption that applying a gender-sensitive approach in education requires an understanding of what a gender perspective entails.

Experience from interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research, along with teaching experiences where ethical questions and themes—such as those related to gender, gender equality, gender justice, and gender relations—are presented, taught, and explored through various media or texts (not only traditional scientific and professional ones but also artistic, especially literary), inspired the author to present such an approach in a relatively coherent form.

This includes summarizing existing knowledge and experiences on the topic so that they can serve as a suitable starting point for enhancing the competencies of future teachers (not only) in ethical education when applying a gender-sensitive approach in education and teaching issues related to gender and gender relations in the context of applied ethics and ethical education.
