Concept of species in bears (Ursidae): practical, historical, and theoretical viewpoint
Wagner, Jan ; Fejfar, Oldřich (advisor) ; Sabol, Martin (referee) ; Musil, Rudolf (referee)
The present thesis surveys topic of taxonomic diversity and phylogeny of bears (Mammalia, Ursidae) and aspects of its contextual setting under effects of changing conceptual and methodological viewpoints. This problem is studied from several perspectives. The historical perspective is represented by a critical overview of the history of specific and infraspecific classification of bears with special respect to mutual influences of this classification and theoretical concepts of species accepted in particular periods. The perspective of material approach is exemplified by a material-based study of taxonomical and phyletic status of selected Pliocene to Middle Pleistocene ursine taxa. Along with deconstruction of some traditional hypotheses this produced a model explaining species diversification in ursine bears and its discussion in terms of factual relevance of included background concepts. In the pre-evolutionary period the bear species were usually understood broadly, as incipient immanent entities, yet exhibiting obvious certain infraspecific variability. This was established using definitions of varieties (mostly not identifiable with present subspecies or infraspecific taxa) considered as unstable modes of particular species. Although, in the post-Darwinian period, the concept and taxonomic...

Pain and its limits. An interdisciplinary approach from the perspective of phenomenology, enactivism and neuroscience
Wagner, Judith ; Sepp, Hans Rainer (advisor) ; Schmiedl-Neuburg, Hilmar (referee) ; Wojtecki, Lars (referee)
Bolest a její hranice. Interdisciplinární přístup z pohledu fenomenologie, enaktivismu a neurověd Chronická bolest je celosvětově významným sociálně-medicínským problémem s vysokými následnými náklady. Syndromy bolesti jsou však jako samostatné onemocnění uznávány až od poloviny 20. století. Zatímco nocicepce popisuje smyslové vnímání bolestivého podnětu, bolest popisuje stav prožívání takové události, její interpretaci z hlediska významu pro postiženého a prožívání řady souvisejících emocí. Zde se ukazuje, že bolest je subjektivní, kontextově závislý, a tudíž také modifikovatelný fenomén, který podléhá vědomé i nevědomé interpretaci jedince z hlediska jejího projevu a formy. Z této komplexnosti je zřejmé, že empirické lékařské vědy samy o sobě nemohou vysvětlit všechny aspekty bolesti. Proto se také stala předmětem fenomenologického výzkumu. Filozofický pohled na bolest je přinejmenším stejně mnohotvárný a lze k němu přistupovat z nejrůznějších perspektiv. V následujícím textu se pokusíme charakterizovat bolest z filozofického - fenomenologického a enaktivistického -, ale také neurovědeckého hlediska. Jako vůdčí struktura této úvahy nám poslouží koncept tělesné hranice: jaký je vztah mezi bolestí a vnímáním tělesných hranic? Existuje vzájemný vliv? A lze toto vnímání modifikovat ve prospěch pacienta...

Production single parts "HOLDER"
Wagner, Jan ; Špaček, Jindřich (referee) ; Žák, Ladislav (advisor)
The diploma thesis is elaborated within frame of masters study programme 2303T010. The work is submitting design of technology production of the drawn part – the holder. The work is based on the study of problems of the deep drawing process and related calculation was designed drawing in instrument with holder according to drawing documentation 2-5M68-12/00. The lower ejector is using for extrusion component. The drawing instrument make use of standardised components and it is solving forms of customary stool close-set on the crank drawing inclinable press LESP 63 A (producer ŠMERAL Brno, plant Trnava), with nominal tensile force 1000 kN. Drawing punch and drawing die are produced from alloyed instrumental steel 19 573, heat-worked according to drawing documentation.

Overview of the family Deinotheriidae C.L. Bonaparte, 1841 [Mammalia, Proboscidea] with direction to fossil discoveries in Czech Republic.
Šmejkal, Roman ; Mazuch, Martin (advisor) ; Wagner, Jan (referee)
This work presents the family Deinotheriidae including the subfamily Chilgatherinae. Morphological differences of teeth point to anatomical differences between the genders Chilgatherium, Prodeinotherium and Deinotherium. Further, the anatomical differences of skull and postcranial skeleton of the Deinotherinae subfamily are described. The Extension of the family Deinotherium is tied to the migration routes from Africa to Asia and Europe. The Occurrence in the Czech Republic is confirmed by 2 important discovery sites. The first one is located in Horní Ves near Franzensbad where the skeleton of the species Prodeinotherium bavaricum was discovered. The second one is located near Česká Třebová and represented by the fragments of the lower jaw of the species Prodeinotherium cuvieri. The discussion focuses on the use of the lower tusks and the method of food intake.

Hamsters (Rodentia, Cricetinae) in the Quaternary fossil record of Czech Republic and Slovakia
Lebedová, Klára ; Horáček, Ivan (advisor) ; Wagner, Jan (referee)
1 Abstract The material of hamster remains in the Quaternary fossil assemblages from Czech Republic and Slovakia was analyzed in details with aid of biometric comparisons and contextual analyses focused on stratigraphic position of particular records and structure of the small mammals communities accompanying them. Cricetus as well as small hamsters (Allocricetus-Cricetulus) were recorded in all main Quaternary biozones (MN17-Q4). Yet Cricetus was recorded in few assemblages only mostly just with a single specimen only, except for several Q2 sites and those from the present glacial cycle (with peak abundance in preboreal and boreal). Despite obvious common trends (enlarging size from MN17 to Q3) all samples show roughly the same pattern of dental variation supporting a concept of Cricetus as a monotypic genus with a single species, C. cricetus covering all fossil forms separated as its subspecies. Correspondingly, our results support congeneric status of MN17-Q3 Allocricetus and Q4 Cricetulus, despite separating them as independent species, i.e., Cricetulus bursae and Cricetulus migratorius. Analysis of subrecent samples of C. migratorius from Turkey revealed a very broad span of phenotype variation in extant species covering both the variation framework of extant Phodopus sungorus and metric variation in a...

Proposed reward system of employees in selected company
Kabourková, Lucie ; Wagner, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Petera, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with proposed system of rewards in a specific company that will be used to increase employee motivation and subsequently their economical productivity. Multidisciplinary literary research from fields of productivity measurement, direction of human resources, psychology and positive economy, represents the theoretical level of this Thesis. Practical part then describes selected company, it introduces reader to specific department and explains jobs of employees, and later it proposes and discusses complex reward system. This particular system is designed based on literature and interviews with employees of individual departments. The Thesis analysis possibilities of salary division into fixed and variable parts, it deals with connection of variable parts to specific scales, outlines issues with bonuses as well as other non-financial motivations, such as teambuildings and promotions, that increase employee motivation.

The design of the ABC model on the example of the healthcare facility
Golovkova, Anita ; Wagner, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Šoljaková, Libuše (referee)
The thesis deals with the issue of the formation of the ABC model in healthcare facilities. The aim of this work is the formation of the ABC model on the example of the Infectious Department of the selected teaching hospital. The work is divided into theoretical and practical part. In the framework of the theoretical part are summarised findings from literature review regarding the Activity-Based Costing method and its application in medical organisations. In the practical part are already constructs of the ABC model itself, based on an annual data basis using a procedure adapted to the medical facilities.
