Projektivní geometrie - náhled z vyšší dimenze
Gottvald, Aleš
Upon recognizing principal and ubiquitous role of projective geometry in theory and applications, we select some of its basic concepts and ideas (homogeneous coordinates, Möbius transformation, cross-ratio, Cayley's hyperbolic distance, ...), and show their first metamorphoses.

Stereotypes in perception towards women on the basis of their body size
Matějková, Erika ; Fraňková, Slávka (advisor) ; Kebza, Vladimír (referee) ; Pařízková, Jana (referee)
This work is directed at determining the stereotypes with which men, women of normal weight and obese women perceive other women on the basis of their figure. Specifically we looked at first impressions. Materials and Methods We surveyed 166 respondents from the Czech Republic. The first part of the survey included 10 questions about how men and women judge other women based on their body size and what attributes they give them. This was followed by 21 statements (descriptors) to be matched with photos of women of different body size who were felt to possess that characteristic. The last part of the survey contained projective questions about perceived and ideal figure. In addition there were enclosed photographs of five women of different body sizes. The women had their faces blurred to obtain a true projective testimony. Results Attributes ascribed to women Statistically significant differences in how women are perceived by men, women of normal weight and obese women include the following. Men assume that when a woman lets her body weight go to either extreme, she is the least intelligent. Men perceive thin women as being pliable while fuller figured women are viewed as being more self-confident and assertive. In contrast women of normal body weight perceive thinner women as cold. Obese women view thin...

The use of color modification of Wartegg drawing test in children with developmental disorders
SAMKOVÁ, Dominika
The Bachelor thesis focuses on the color modification of Wartegg drawing test in children with Asperger Syndrome.The theoretical part is focused on children's drawings, the development and use of projective techniques and diagnosis.This part also shows issues and problems of Asperger syndrome and its diagnosis. An important part is also Wartegg drawing test characteristic. The empirical part focuses on specific expressions of children with Asperger syndrome into Wartegg drawing test. Bachelor thesis tried to find out how to reflect Asperger syndrome into Wartegg drawing test and whether it is possible to use this projective method with such disorder.

Motivation and satisfaction of employees in a selected company
Bošková, Markéta ; Dvořáková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Švarná, Jana (referee)
The aim of the diploma thesis is to evaluate the motivation and satisfaction of employees in a selected company. The thesis is divided into two parts -- theoretical and practical. First, the thesis defines the theoretical concept of motivation and satisfaction and defines a projective method called Colour Association Technique (CAT) from the concept of Balance Management. The practical part of the thesis presents the company where the research was done. Further methodology of research is presented in this part. In the methodology of research a questionnaire survey was chosen. A questionnaire survey focused on 7 areas of motivation and satisfaction covering 25 study-factors. Further, individual interviews were held with a selected sample of employees, and the projective method mentioned was used. The main body of the practical part consists of an evaluation of the results using all research methods. Individual results are compared and in conclusion recommendations for improving the current situation in the company are suggested. These final recommendations may become a basis for the future development of an optimal motivation program, which the company has not yet implemented.

Psychological context of scenic production
Šípek, Jiří ; Vostrý, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Hyvnar, Jan (referee) ; Gajdoš, Július (referee) ; Hančil, Jan (referee)
This dissertation thesis investigates selected (but substantial) topics of scenic art. It is based on theoretical work of prominent art and theater personalities (Frejka, Hilar, Zich, Vostry and others). Emotions, empathy, inner touch perception and distance are discussed in detail. In empirical research part there is studied a special way of art personality reaction in situation of meeting uncertainty. To process it Rorschach projective method was used.

The creation of the PFT (C-W) users manual
Čáp, David ; Šípek, Jiří (referee) ; Niederlová, Markéta (referee)
The Rosenzweig Picture Frustration Study for adults has never had any created norms in terms of Czech population. Since the time of creation its graphical stimulus material became old and nearly unusable. The purpose of this text is to show the method P-F Study to the readers and than to introduce new graphical material, the emergent norms and new user's manual. Validity and reliability of the new version PFT (C-W) was examined on the sample of 30 students in age from 14 to 16 years. The standardisation was realized on the sample of 100 students in age from 14 to 17 years. The new norms were created for categories, S-E patterns and GCR. Also the scoring and compilation of the scoring blank was adapted. Key words: aggression, frustration, projective method, Rosenzweig P-F Study, user's manual

Application of art therapy practice in educational and psychological counseling
Mazehóová, Yvona
The dissertation thesis deals with art therapy applied in educational and psychological counseling. Theoretical part of the thesis defines the term "art therapy", theoretical and historical fundaments of the art therapy and touches upon possible applications in treatment. The art therapy process is described from the projective art therapy point of view; specificities of this particular approach in work with children are explained. The developmental view on the art therapy is esp. accented (and described in special chapter). This part of thesis describes the art therapy process together with its goals, possible techniques and themes used in art guidance, the alternatives of methodical supervision and interventions into the child's art production, and evaluation of the therapy progress. Verbal communication with children during the art therapy and interpretation of the product are discussed as well as symbolics and metaphor in art production. The possibilities of art therapeutic work with parents and their inclusion into the therapeutic process are mentioned. The practical part of the thesis begins with survey of current use of art therapy in educational and psychological counseling, which addressed all counseling centers in Czech Republic. The options to use the art therapy in counseling are demonstrated in...

3D Scene Reconstruction from Stereo Pictures
Turoňová, Beata ; Chum, Jaroslav (referee) ; Holub, Viliam (advisor)
We study 3D scene reconstruction from stereo pictures. First, we describe methods for computing fundamental matrix from a set of corresponding image points. Using this matrix we can obtain a projective 3D reconstruction. The second part deals with techniques of re ning the projective reconstruction to metric one. We focus especially on that one, which uses an essential matrix. Furthermore we discuss the possibilities of surface reconstruction from a given point cloud. The last part includes some details of an implementation and presents its results.

Měkké stíny na GPU
Zápotocký, Boris ; Ambrož, David (referee) ; Pelikán, Josef (advisor)
Huge graphics hardware development and GPU programmability enables higher performance and more flexibility in programming. Many algorithms are now realtime. Very significant role among CG algorithms is held by shadow computation methods. Shadows are essential for human perception, soft shadows are physically correct and computationally consuming. Three major types of algorithms were proposed: projective shadows, shadow maps and shadow volumes. Each of them has advantages and disadvantages. Some of the advanced soft shadowing methods are covered in more detail. Measurements of both quality and performance along with the accompanying demonstrative software enables on the fly familiarization with the mentioned methods.
