Instrumental retouche in the Czech orchestral practice
Bubák, Jan ; Koutník, Tomáš (advisor) ; Olivieri-Munroe, Charles (referee)
The aim of this thesis is not to give an ultimate judgment about retouches and alterings that conductors can make to a score but to create a clear overview. This means summarizing all means how the original score is manipulated without changing the denotational picture of it. First of all, the processes that can be applied to a score are being categorized. The survey is helping to defina what could be understood under the term "retouch". Any other alterings should be considered not as retouch but as an arrangement. The analyzed score material comprises classical to mid 20th century repertoire. This thesis explores the useof retouches with regard to historical development of orchestral style. Futhermore the scanning field is limited to the Czech orchestral practice. In the mext chapters the most frequent retouches are analyzed. The author ztries to give reasons why these are considered as a part of our´orchestral tradition´or if it is something that belongs to the past and should be revised again. The thesis is also searching for reasons that led the conductors to introduce these retouches.

Attachment and communication in romantic relationships
MARELOVÁ, Anna
This thesis deals with the attachment and communication in romantic relationships. First, there are defined basic theoretical grounds of attachment in childhood, adulthood and romantic relationships. The work also specifies the romantic relationship and the communication in a romantic relationship and its division into four communication styles - assertive, passive, manipulative and aggressive. For the practical part there was chosen a quantitative research, whose main objective was to determine the relation between dimensions of attachment and communication styles in romantic relationships. The work also examined whether the communication styles differ according to the type of attachment. It was also researched whether there is a link between the lenght of relationship and the dimensions of attachment. The research sample consisted of data from 333 respondents. There were used two questionnaires - "ECR-R" for detecting the attachment of an individual and "Questionnaire of 4 styles of communication in romantic relationships." Attachment is made up of two dimensions - anxiety and avoidance. It was found out that with decreasing levels of anxiety and avoidance individuals use a more assertive style of communication. Conversely, those with higher levels of anxiety and avoidance, often prefer negative communication strategies (either passive, aggressive or manipulative). Further, it was discovered that depending on what attachment individuals have, they use different styles of communication. The research also showed that there is no significant connection between the dimensions of attachment and the length of relationship.

Folk As a Social Phenomenon in the Time of So Called Normalization
Houda, Přemysl ; Vaněk, Miroslav (advisor) ; Mücke, Pavel (referee) ; Valeš, Lukáš (referee)
Summary: The thesis "Folk As a Social Phenomenon in the Time of So Called Normalization" does not take folk primarily for a music style but it intends to demonstrate its limits the Communist power in Czechoslovakia had set for independent cultural activities in 1970s and 1980s. That is why the thesis is not a musicological one but a political and historic one. The text is based on a wide basis of sources: studies in archives, the analysis of valid legislation of that time, studies of contemporary press, interviewing the contemporary witnesses and using the witnesses' private archives and last but not least the lyrics of the songs themselves have been selected as important sources The text focuses on important milestones having the information value about the folk in 1970s and 1980s. There is provided an analysis of qualification tests which should have "cleansed" the official stages from "defective" musicians (and from a lot of folk singers as well). The demonstration of possibilities is given here showing the fact the folk could survive and balance on the edge of the public life in spite of all legislation barriers and this either in the form of circumventing the law and using the gaps in the law (folk singers' union Šafrán (Saffron)) or in the form of "hacking" the system, i.e. gaining influence in an...

The issue of care of a patients with the critical ischemia of lower limbs.
SVATOŠOVÁ, Gabriela
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a disease which may cause gradual narrowing and possibly congestion of arteries that are responsible for nourishing the lower limbs. Most often this condition develops consequently with atherosclerosis. The most advanced stage of PAD is called critical limb ischemia. The changes induced by atherosclerosis affect not only the lower limb arteries, but at the time of the diagnosis of PAD all arteries in the body are already affected. Therefore PAD belongs among cardiovascular diseases and its diagnosis is a negative prognostic factor of the overall cardiovascular risk. The aim of treatment interventions is to reduce complications that accompany this ailment and their impact on the patient's life. The aim of the thesis was to find out to what extend the patients are informed about the causes of PAD, options of its treatment and the impact of prevention and life style on the overall prognosis of the disease. The first objective of the thesis is to find out if patients are aware of the risks of PAD treatment, one of which is leg amputation. The second objective is to find out whether the patients are sufficiently informed about their condition. The third objective is to evaluate whether patients follow the prescribed treatment. The fourth objective is to find out whether patients are willing to change their life style in order to eliminate the risk of lower limb amputation. A part of interviews with patients was to educate them about their condition, the necessity of following the treatment regimen and the impact of lifestyle on the affected leg prognosis. At the end, the interviewed received educational handouts with information about the most important suggested procedures to follow. The practical part of the thesis is based on qualitative research. The data was collected in semi-structured interviews. The interviews were conducted in two steps. The first step was to educate patients about PAD and distribute informational handouts. The second round of interviews took place intentionally several months after the first ones. Their purpose was to assess the impact of education on patients' compliance with treatment and regimen. The research shows the majority of the interviewed were well-informed about the crucial aspects of their condition and treatment procedures. The participants understood the given information and considered it satisfactory. However, it was surprising that patients had not looked for information themselves. Simultaneously, it was ascertained that most of the respondents were aware of the prognosis and risks related to the treatment. The two-step interviews showed some respondents were not aware of the causes of their disease. It can be therefore assumed that their ignorance of the risk factors and their impact on the development of the disease is the reason why patients do not give enough importance to the suggested treatment regimen. Furthermore, it was found out that they had not look for a substitute solution if they are not able to follow the recommended treatment regimen. The results of this thesis show that although the elimination of the risk factors is crucial for patients' future they do not pay enough attention to them. There are two aspects to it; either patients trivialize the potential risks or are apathetic or are not sufficiently informed. It is hard to have some impact on patients' apathy and trivialization of their condition. Nevertheless, it is possible to influence the second aspect, which is the subject of the final part of the thesis and the educational handout. As was discovered during the interviews, the information provided by doctors during ambulatory treatment is not thorough and does not include practical advice how to follow treatment regimen. Patients should be informed by nurse either personally or during the sessions. In this way the patient should be also selfmotivated in their treatment.
