Ontogeny of women's nonverbal displays during their interaction with opposite sex
Slavíková, Kateřina ; Lindová, Jitka (advisor) ; Hejtmánek, Lukáš (referee)
Ethological researchers have been investigated a behaviour of couples when they meet for the first time in the long time. Studies are focused especially on the behaviour in the courtship context. Courtship is a process in which possible mating partners express interest about each other and it can lead to formation of romantic relationship. However, the studies focused on this behaviour of younger people in the same situation are missing. We are interested about behaviour of adolescents, the group of people which starts to step off the isosexual groups (typical for children), to manifest an interest in the opposite sex and to create the first romantic relationships. The aim of this study is to investigate how adolescent girls and adult women behave when they meet an unknown partner for the first time, how the behaviour changes in two situations - the first meeting and after one hour interaction, and which differences we can see in the behaviour of adolescents and adult women. Own research was based on the analyse of video recordings of couples who were recorded in standard environment by hidden camera. There were two situations - the interaction when the unknown couple meet at the first time and the interaction of the same couple when they know each other one hour. The video recordings of ten...

Reference vocalization in African grey parrot (Psittacus erithacus)
Brojerová, Jana ; Lindová, Jitka (advisor) ; Policht, Richard (referee)
The ability to communicate referentially has been historically viewed as being uniquelly human. However, with the increasing amount of studies discussing the communicative faculty of animals in the context of the evolution of human language, there is now growing evidence that this ability is present in many animal species, too. Although we know a lot about mimetic abilities of domesticated African grey parrots' (Psittacus erithacus) and their competence to use human words in a referential way, we know very little about the elements of referentiality in their natural vocalization. Our goal in this work was to find, whether and in which context is functionally referential vocalization in this species of birds present. We were determining its presence by the experiment, in which we have exposed four captured African grey parrot, in the ownership of FHS UK Prague, to stimuli that in other animal species usually elicit functionally referential vocalization: predators and prefered type of food. We analysed the behaviour and vocalizations of the tested birds by analytic softwares Interact, respectively Soundforge 0.8. We find out, that despite the fact that birds reaponded to our experimental objects appropriatelly (i.e. "predators" caused more fear and the like), they give the major amout of...
