University hockey in the Czech Republic from the point of its participants
Šimková, Anna Marie ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Suchý, Jiří (referee)
In my work I try to map university hockey in the Czech Republic through the personal experiences of its players. I describe the organisation and function of university hockey competitions played or played by Czech clubs, as well as the organisation of ice hockey at the Academic Championships and Universiade. In order to gain insights, I mainly used interviews with personalities from the ranks of players, coaches or management in the field of university hockey. This is because I wanted to capture their opinions and experiences on the issue in order to shed light on it in the most authentic way possible. KEYWORDS Ice Hockey, University League, Academic Championships, Universiade

A case study comparing discursive strategies employed by a child at both pre and early school years as they seek to make sense of the world that surrounds them
ŠIMKOVÁ, Marie
The present thesis aims to analyse a narrative interaction between a child (Natálka) and an adult with regard to discursive strategies employed in the context of imagination and creativity. I applied the method of Conversation Analysis to the examination of the transcribed audio recordings that were taken in 2018 and at the turn of 2020 during the interaction between Natálka and myself. An analysis of the data identified that in the child's repertoire the following practices were present: (1) linking two or more episodes in a conversation, (2) asking questions, (3) separating individual topics, and (4) using other discourse elements; concretely humour, exaggeration, and negotiation techniques. The first part of the thesis sets out the discursive practices examined and argues for the insights these provide into the imagination and creativity of a child. The analysis, which is undertaken in the form of a case study, subsequently maps the use of the selected strategies developed over two years of Natálka's life and characterises how these changes reflect the child's cognitive development.

Aesthetic and Body Movement Education in the Waldorf Pedagogy.
Šimková, Marie ; Mazáčová, Nataša (advisor) ; Váňová, Miroslava (referee)
Over the last few decades there has been a detectable increase in public awareness of the complexity of human being. While in the former years cognitive faculty (measured by IQ tests) was the main matter of psychological interest, nowadays experts are focusing more on the other components of mental activity: emotional, social and creative intelligence. It is beyond dispute that school should foster the development of all these qualities; however, a question rises over the educational procedures and methods which should be employed to reach this high idea. One of the possible ways is represented by waldorf pedagogy whose main aim is to nourish and develop children's minds, hearts and souls and guide them on their way towards becoming valuable members of human society.

Alternation of bile production due to iron depletion.
Šimková, Marie ; Prašnická, Alena (advisor) ; Hyršová, Lucie (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biological and Medical Sciences Student: Marie Šimková Supervisor: Mgr. Alena Prašnická Title of diploma thesis: Alternation of bile production due to iron depletion Introduction: Liver has an irreplaceable role in the production and secretion of bile. This body fluid serves as the main excretion way of some endogenous and exogenous substances. Another liver property is the ability to store substances essential for correct functions of the body, e.g. iron. It has been shown that iron could have an impact on the bile production and secretion. Aim: The aim of this diploma thesis was to discover an impact of iron depletion on the bile synthesis and metabolism, especially on bile acids, and the way it affects transporters expression. Methods: Male Wistar rats (n=6 in each group, 250 ± 20 g) were divided into two groups: control group (Chow diet) fed with standard diet and iron depletion group (ID), fed with iron depletion diet for 21 days. To investigate the changes in bile flow, the bile had been collected for 120 min during in vivo clearance study. The analysis of the changes in expression of bile transporters and enzymes responsible for de novo bile acid synthesis was performed at the mRNA (qRT-PCR) and protein (Western blot)...

How children tell stories - the process of storytelling
ŠIMKOVÁ, Marie
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyse the structure and development of storytelling. Creativity, as well as imagination, are integral to the storytelling because they play an important role with regard to the progress of the story. Creativity is presented as the newly created words, which do not exist in the Czech language at all, whereas Natálka´s imagination enables her to include the dark elements, such as crushing the rats. In the thesis, I apply the method of Conversation Analysis to the examination of the transcribed audio recordings that were made during the interaction between me and Natálka.

The use of articles in Italian and English - a contrastive analysis
ŠIMKOVÁ, Marie
This diploma thesis aims to analyze the function of articles in English and Italian. In both languages, articles are used in order to determine the name; however, in some instances, such function works in both languages differently. With the help of examples from books and from the InterCorp corpus, this thesis shows the similarities and differences regarding this matter. The description of both languages is based on the point of view of a native speaker of Czech. Having a broad variety of endings and declinations, Czech is a language that does not use the category of article. Thus, it uses other means to cover the same function, which in this case helps to see the differences in different language systems. The thesis is divided into ten chapters; each of them deals with a different aspect that is related to the article use. To show the level of similarity in each of these cases, the theory is supported by various examples in both languages. The first chapter deals with the development of articles from the Indoeuropean base. Next chapter introduces the current forms of articles in modern English and Italian, taking into account pronunciation. Chapter 3 focuses on the classification of substantives and also deals with the concept of countability. Chapter 4 introduces articles as a part of NP, taking into account different parts of speech that from the syntactic point of view can appear in the same position as article. Chapters 5 and 6 are focused on the general functions of articles, while the following two chapters analyse respectively the use of articles with common and proper names. Chapters 9 and 10 deal with the impact of word order on the use of articles and with the correlation of articles and demonstrative pronouns. In the final part are exposed the general conclusions that resulted from the analysis of all the aspects listed above.

Vietnamese-Czech bilingual adolescents on EEG - bilingual effect on cognitive advantage
ŠIMKOVÁ, Kateřina Marie
A recently progressive topic of psychology are aspects of humans psyché. It is raised in the most complicated matter human could ever explore. In the brain. This bachelor thesis briefly concludes cerebral mechanisms of neuroplasticity and its influence on humans life. Concretely the theoretical part is specialized on a cognitive advantage of bilingualism. The mentioned advantage was studied in empirical part by electroencephalographic measurement in Vietnamese-Czech bilinguals during letter detection task. We expected bilinguals to outperform control group of monolinguals in behavioral part. Due to a different neural organization within linguistic plasticity, we also expected different amplitudes in event-related potentials in the bilingual group in linguistic areas of the brain. Results confirm mentioned neural differences, although behavioral advantage hypothesis is falsified.
