Determiners used with proper nouns - problematic cases
Balcarová, Adéla ; Brůhová, Gabriela (advisor) ; Šaldová, Pavlína (referee)
The present thesis is concemed with determination of proper nouns. While the theoretical part presents a summary of what has already been written about this topic in representative grammars, the analysis concentrates on problematic cases that have not been previously covered. Similarly to common nouns referring to a single object that is unambiguously deterrnined in discourse, proper nouns expres s nongeneric, specific reference. The two basic means of determination of proper nouns are the definite article and the null article (which must be distinguished from the zero article). The use of both of these determiners tends to vary. The aim of this thesis is to describe this variation. It is to be determined, whether it is caused by simply lingusitic factors or by extralinguistic factors as well. The analysis concentrates mainly on the following groups of proper nouns: bridges, waterfalls, cars and musical compositions - proper nouns that have not, so far, been included in any of the representative grammars. Apart from these groups, the focus of the analysis is also on determination of proper nouns previously classified from the point of article usage. Certain cases of variation shall be pointed out and discussed. Lastly, a chapter is dedicated to newly created proper nouns and deterrniners used with them....

Efficiency of hospitals in the Czech Republic : DEA & SFA applications
Procházková, Jana ; Gregor, Martin (advisor) ; Chalupka, Radovan (referee)
This rigorous thesis estimates cost efficiency of 99 general hospitals in the Czech Republic during 2001-2008 using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). It tests comparability of their results finding out a certain qualitative similarity. Next, determinants were added into SFA and efficiency of Czech hospitals examined. The presence of inefficiency is group specific even having accounted for various determinants. Effects of determinants were tested. Inefficiency increases with teaching status, more than 20,000 treated patients a year, not-for-profit status, larger share of the elderly in the municipality and average salary in the district. Inefficiency de- creases with less than 10,000 patients treated a year, larger population, higher unemployment rate and more hospitals in the region. The IES WP enclosed incorporates comments raised previously against the master thesis, i.e. excludes the effect of unemployment as a determinant from the SFA model; it furhter uses wages direcly in the the cost function. Considerable similarity between the two SFA models has been found both in terms of coefficients and signs of the remaining variables, as well as, in terms of resulting efficiency scores. The effect of the labor market is thus dual in the former case but it is accounted for...

Further education of secondary-grammar-school geography teachers in Karlovy Vary region
Fenklová, Eva ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Kühnlová, Hana (referee)
The master thesis focuses on further education of secondary-grammar-school geography teachers in the Karlovy Vary region. The topic has been studied in detail using a qualitative research in the form of multiple case studies of semi-structured interviews of persons relevant to further education in the studied region. The qualitative research conducted brings a wide range of data relevant to the approaches taken by management of different schools and geography teachers to further education, opportunities for further education in the Karlovy Vary region, and the subsequent transfer of its results to the geography curriculum. Based on the data collected from the persons asked, a proposal for a possible expansion of the further education of secondary-grammar-school geography teachers in the Karlovy Vary region was drafted. This proposal represents a motivation for improvement of the quality of the geography curriculum in the region.

The Benefits of Loss: Life Strategies and Negotiations of Identity amongst Indian Transmigrants in Melbourne, Australia
Slavková, Markéta ; Ryška, Tomáš (advisor) ; Halbich, Marek (referee)
My thesis The Benefits of Loss: Life Strategies and Negotiations of Identity amongst Indian Transmigrants in Melbourne, Australia is a study of a community of transmigrants of prevailingly Indian origin who immigrated to Melbourne Australia. The majority of these persons came to Australia on overseas student visas in order to pursue a university education; this later created an opportunity for them to obtain permanent residency in Australia through The General Skilled Migration program. This specific migration flow of persons with high skill and education has been supported by the Australian government in the last decade as a reaction to the increased mobility of population in the globalized world. The study focuses on the life strategies and negotiations of particular individuals attempting to show how these global trends are mediated in specific stages of their lives. At the centre of my interest lies a social network of 14 friends who constitute a transnational community in Melbourne, their motivations of migration, the stories capturing their experiences of the migration process, life strategies in the territory of a foreign nation-state and everyday negotiations of both individual and collective identity.

SCLEROSIS MULTIPLEX LIKE AN ENFORCED LIFESTYLE
JAKEŠOVÁ, Lucie
My thesis deals with the quality of life in patients with multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis affects mainly persons at the productive age, i.e. between 20 and 40 years of age. As a consequence patients become disabled. I my thesis I describe symptoms of this disease, its clinical picture, causes and origin and also consequences. I am concerned with patient´s psycho-social changes as well as changes in patient´s quality of life as a consequence of the disease. For the practical part I used the quantitative research. Respondents were selected at random with regard to stratification. The techniques of a semi-standardized interview and a questionnaire were used to collect data. The research was conducted in the nursing home Domov Svateho Josefa (St Joseph´s Home) in Zirec at Dvur Kralove nad Labem in November 2007 with eight respondents, six women and two men. The objective was to examine the impacts of multiple sclerosis on the quality of patients´ lives. The targets of my research were also to find out if the help granted by state is sufficient, if the disease affects patients´ family and social relations and if the patients themselves are familiar with all the ways how to get the support from government institutions in terms of some subsidy. The results of the research show that the patient´s quality of life has changed as a consequence of the disease both in the economic respect and the respect of social relations. Most patients are not informed enough on all the possibilites how to get financial aid from government organizations and therefore they do not apply for any subsidy. The suprising finding was that most patients are satisfied with the state support and policy. I was reassured in my belief that there are not enough accessible indoor, as well as outdoor service providers. This is the reason why most patients stay away from social life and do not enter into social relations. Therefore my suggestion is to improve the accessibility to public areas. It is also necessary to enhance awareness of the disease not only in the public but also in patients themselves. The patients with multiple sclerosis often do not know all the opportunities how to improve quality of their lives.
