Judgement of personality based on recordings of dance and gait (obtained using Motion Capture)
Vávra, Jan ; Lindová, Jitka (advisor) ; Krejčová, Lucie (referee)
Judgement of personality based on recordings of dance and gait (obtained using Motion Capture) This study raises the question if it is possible to assess personality traits based on body movement while dancing and walking if we isolate movement from other non-verbal cues. The theoretical part of the study lists theoretical concepts associated with this question and summarizes previous research on the subject. The main part of this study is empirical research: the movement of 21 women was filmed using Motion Capture technology which captures human movement by recording the coordinates of key segments of the body. A virtual female character was used to re-create the movement of the research participants. The resulting footage was then presented to 187 raters, who scored segments of it on two sets of personality scales. The comparison of the raters' scores and self-assesed personality of the participant is subject to the analytical part of this study. The results showed several correlations between assesments of personality traits and self-assesed personality traits, but those were never the same traits (i. e. extraversion was never recognized as extraversion, but possibly manifested itself thorugh ratings of other traits). We also found several more general factors on which the raters' assessments of...

The Influence of physical movement and healthy nourishment on decrease bodily fat at women of middle age\\
PLUHÁČKOVÁ, Petra
This thesis is concentrating on research about reduction of body fat by women in middle age within the limits 40-60 year upon influence of body move and adherence to healthy nutrition. It was observed group of 5 women with an imposition of the adherence interventional program. Constitute a thesis was a measurement of body fat with method BIA and with measuring instrument AEG, OMRON and Boby Mass Index (BMI) body´s perimeters. Body´s perimeters were measured at the beginning of research namely input-, continuous- and output measuring. The Program was under way since January 2010 until March 2010. At the beginning were used checklists which served as anamnesis of life style from surveyed subjects and to entering of measuring data.
