Hanáková, Justina ; Horáková Hoskovcová, Simona (advisor) ; Šulová, Lenka (referee)
The diploma thesis is focused on medial models of the minority group's equal perception development by preschool aged children. The theoretical part discourses in the wider context of the socialisation process about aspects important in this relation. It turns to the topics of social learning, attitudes towards minorities, attitudes' formation, mass communication and its impact on preschool children. The empiric part focuses on analysis of the chosen both electronic and printed medial production assigned to Czech preschool children, including comparison between Czech and foreign production. Within the analysis the either presence or absence of such medial models is investigated, which might have an influence on Czech children's attitude forming towards minority groups. Consequently it is evaluated whether between identified models such models exist, which could have a potential for actuating recipient in the sense of equal perception development towards minority groups.

Visual experince as example and pattern in relation to the expansion and influence into human life
Nohejl, Jiří ; Czumalo, Vladimír (advisor) ; Vojtěchovský, Miroslav (referee)
The main theme of this dissertation is to define an image as a visual experience. The human interaction is described by the author himself as a perception of the image, which serves as an information unit that could be presented as a possibility, example and pattern for the individual. There is an emphasis on the process of perception itself and on the way of interaction of an individual emphasizing the context of social learning and imitation in this text. The analysis of the principles of this interaction leading into introduction of the partial interactive models covering these processes is formed by the essential plane. The structure of the thesis is divided into ten main chapters in which the author tries to introduce a category of perception, a definition of the image and imitation as a tool of cultural transmission, presentation of the units of this transmission, the process of the interaction itself and analogous example of the fundamental role that a person in this interaction holds. There are also three analogies of these roles, which refer to the anthropological universal interaction describing the man as a gatherer and hunter. Their main purpose is to illustrate the form of a human experience better. Finally, there are reflections on the topic above. The possibilities and results, which...

Incredible Adam Spark. Between translation and transformation
Náprstek, Marek ; Ženíšek, Jakub (advisor) ; Matuchová, Klára (referee)
This BA thesis is concerned with the translation of a part of the novel The Incredible Adam Spark written by a Scottish author Alan Bissett and its consequent stylistic analysis. This thesis deals mainly with the question of reproduction of a literary work in a different socio-cultural environment that it was created in, it discuses the achievable degree of objectivity and authenticity during the process of translation and finally it concentrates on the role of a translator as a mediator between the writer and the reader. One of the examined fields is also the question of the translator's involvement in the reformulation of the translated material, in other words, his role as a partial co-author, who is incapable of depersonalized transmission of information between the writer of the source text and its recipient. The thesis itself is divided into three main parts. First part provides theoretical framework dealing with the general question of the process of translation and its principles. Second part consists of the translation of a part of the text in question. Third part concludes by analysing the chosen procedures and encountered problems in relation to the theoretical framework mentioned above.

Niklyaev, Ilya ; Lukeš, Martin (advisor) ; Mareš, Jan (referee)
This study is dedicated to providing readers with a holistic overview of the phenomenon of the imitation among internet based companies. Four research questions have been posed and answered through qualitative primary and secondary researches. As a result of this study major success factors that allowed a Berlin - based company Rocket Internet SE to imitate ideas and business models of others have been identified, numerous recommendations have been provided to future copycat companies as well as to companies that face the pressure from such copycats in their day-to-day activities. As an outcome, more transparency has been provided about the processes of imitation in the business environment in order to allow various players to compete more effectively, structure their operations in more efficient way and avoid costly mistakes.

Useless Things
Maloušková, Drahomíra ; Jeřábková, Edith (referee) ; Artamonov, Vasil (advisor)
Useless things. I normally use trash things like pattern in painting still life. My father suffers from obsessive compulsive disorder – accumulation of things. In addition to painting, I also work with objects themselves. My interest also closely related to how the concepts of the subject, object and artifact are appliing in contemporary art. There are the tradition of imitation fact, principle of ready-made, the issue of technical reproducibility and virtual reality of things in history of art. As a central theme of my thesis, I selected the part of bodywork Tatra 613, which carries all the testimony about ,,useless and hopeless "situation in which it is located. It is also an object monumental and visually very aesthetic. Yet it is not my intention to settle for the principle of redy-made. Asked about artwork as intermediaries art and its seemingly useless producing and reproducing, I want to try to create another such usless situation. That's why I make a cardboard copy (1: 1) of this object. I also make video with motive 3D copy of the same object. I like to create some voltage between that useless object and valuable art practice. I think, it does not just mean such futility when these objects will be viewed as an art.

Physiotherapeutic possibilities in preschoolers with faulty posture
HRDINA, Jakub
The thesis deals with problem of faulty posture at preschool children and influence of this process through the physiotherapy. The theoretical part describes faulty posture including trends in the incidence, the position of individual human body segments, deep stabilization system and ontogenetic development from birth until the end of preschool period. Part of theoretical part also includes a list of appropriate physiotherapy techniques. Faulty posture is caused by muscular imbalance in the form of weakening of the muscles on one side and increased muscle tension on the other side. There are not anatomical abnormalities at faulty posture in contrast to structural failures so it is possible to correct this postural defect. Examination of postural functions in the preschool period is complicated because some developmental abnormalities are physiological in childhood. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which abnormality is appropriate to correct. Preschool period starts at the age of three and ends at the age of six or seven. An imitation of close persons is typical in this period. A lot of children stay in kindergartens which can be source of various risks. In case of insufficient development of movement skills and coordination of movement, one-sided stress or lack of spontaneous physical aktivity these risks may be reflected in the form of faulty posture. Qualitative research methods have been selected for the practical part. Data was obtained through two case studies that include medical history, along with kinesiology analysis. The research group consisted of preschool children diagnosed with faulty posture. The probands were selected from the Dětské rehabilitační centrum Lentilka in Pardubice. Based on the results of the examination, there were prepared individual exercises which were used at home. It was also used of sensomotoric stimulation, proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and exercise TherapiMaster. Appropriate motivation is an important aspect of physiotherapy at children. Because the game in preschool period has justified significance during physiotherapy as well, most of actions were adapted.
