Rozchod jako nový začátek

Lesia Shuranova

Jedinečná publikace, která srozumitelně ukazuje, jak může koordinovaná rehabilitace zásadně ovlivnit život po cévní mozkové příhodě. Autorka propojuje zkušenosti pacientů, jejich rodin a odborníků s aktuálními poznatky z praxe a nabízí ucelený pohled na to, co skutečné rozhoduje o návratu k soběstačnosti. Kniha je cenná svým komplexním záběrem, lidským jazykem a zaměřením na praxi českého zdravotnického a sociálního systému. Čtenář se dozví, jaké dopady má cévní mozková příhoda, z čeho se skládá rehabilitace a proč je důležité propojení jednotlivých profesí. Kniha vysvětluje rozdíly mezi koordinovanou, ucelenou a komunitní rehabilitací, popisuje léčebnou, pedagogickou, pracovní, sociální i psychologickou složku péče a ukazuje, co se děje při přechodu z nemocnice domů. Otevírá také témata nejčastějších bariér, slabých míst systému a možností jejich překonání. Významným prvkem jsou autentické výpovědi pacientů i odborníků – fyzioterapeutů, ergoterapeutů, lékařů, psychologů, sester, zdravotně-sociálních pracovníků i praktických lékařů. Kniha je určena fyzioterapeutům, ergoterapeutům, lékařům, sestrám, logopedům, psychologům, sociálním pracovníkům a pracovníkům domácí péče a také pacientům po cévní mozkové příhodě a jejich rodinám. Vhodná je také pro studenty zdravotnických a sociálních oborů. Autorka vychází z dlouholeté zkušenosti v rehabilitační praxi i z vlastního výzkumu. Do knihy přináší hlasy pacientů, rodin i odborníků a propojuje je s aktuálními poznatky. Píše srozumitelné, lidsky a s respektem k těm, kterých se téma dotýká.

The textbook is primarily intended for students of teaching academic subjects, but it will enrich anyone who needs to familiarize themselves with research methodology focusing on psychological and educational sciences. In the textbook, students become acquainted with the basic principles of conducting research, the process of research implementation, and the basic methods of quantitative or qualitative approaches.

The examples used in the textbook are mostly focused on research conducted in a school environment. By acquiring the basic knowledge presented in the textbook, the reader will be able to conduct simple research in school conditions. At the same time, understanding the principles of research methodology helps with the critical evaluation of information from various sources.

The second, expanded edition has been extended by three chapters, focusing on conducting research directly during the teaching process in the form of teacher action research, on the possibilities of evaluating preventive programs, and the final chapter deals with the possibilities of publishing research.

The proposed methodological guide focuses on a self-care questionnaire for the target group of adolescents. The creation of this methodology was prompted by its absence in the conditions of the Slovak Republic. The methodological guide consists of both theoretical and empirical parts.

In the theoretical part, the authors present theoretical foundations for the proposed methodology—self-care among adolescents—and also provide theoretical definitions of components of self-care in this target group. The second, empirical part of the methodological guide is dedicated to validation methods used to verify the questionnaire. It also presents results examining differences or correlations in the presented issues.

The proposed anthology represents for many doctoral students their first entry into the publishing environment of scientific genres. The studies in such cases contain the essence of future dissertation works, which represent the creative pinnacle of doctoral studies. In addition to providing doctoral students with the opportunity to publish scientific outputs, we also consider the anthology a space for interdisciplinary encounters and mutual enrichment. However, interdisciplinarity is not merely a characteristic of the anthology as a whole but also of some studies.

Most notable interdisciplinary approaches are observed in literary studies. The traditional subject of research into artistic texts is enriched in individual studies by examining theatrical and film works (Peter Getlík), linguistic aspects of phrasemes (Ivana Hudiková), musical elements (Terézia Kulíková), visual art (Dominika Petáková), and digital spaces of new media (Alexandra Popovičová). From other disciplines, we highlight Miroslava Süčová Vernarská’s study, which extends psychological research into sociological and linguistically communicative contexts (the concept of metaphor), or conversely, Zuzana Šoltésová and Dušan Šlosár’s contribution, analyzing eating disorders from their disciplinary background in social work.

Both mentioned disciplines also include contributions with traditional research subjects. Nikola Fabiny from psychology analyzes consequence expectations in the context of goal selection and achievement. Jana Plavnická and Dušan Šlosár’s co-authored study from the Department of Social Work presents a multi-perspective analysis of integration barriers for immigrants in Slovakia. Within their own disciplines, both philosophy contributions operate: Juraj Brenišin interprets the ethical aspects of Avicbron’s Fons vitæ, while Michal Kručko examines Edmund Husserl’s unfinished work through a comparative lens of his students Jan Patočka and Roman Ingarden. The anthology concludes with Lukáš Lukačín’s study (written in English), which explores the semantic-grammatical category of modality in the verbs MAY and CAN within legal-administrative documents of the European Union.

The representation of academic disciplines and doctoral students’ individual creative outputs in Doktorandské miscelaneá 4 is thus appropriately diverse. We present this publication to the broader academic community as a representative overview of trends in young scholars’ thinking across the spectrum of humanities and social sciences doctoral programs at the Faculty of Arts, UPJŠ in Košice.
