Assessment of interpretation performance by different groups of users
Nekula, Libor ; Čeňková, Ivana (referee) ; Rejšková, Jana (advisor)
The objective of this theoretical-empirical thesis is to investigate the assessment of interpretation performances by various groups of recipients. In the theoretical part, we provide an overview of the research results achieved up-to-date by theoreticians such as Hildegund Bühler, Ingrid Kurz, Andrzej Kopczynski, Peter Moser, Barbara Moser-Mercer, Daniel Gile, Franz Pöchhacker etc. The research results suggest that users' expectations can differ depending on their experience, education and/or professional background. This fact prompted us to test the validity of this assumption by having interpreters' performances assessed by various groups of users, the hypothesis being that different groups of users are likely to assess performance differently. To verify the hypothesis, we recorded three interpreters, who consecutively interpreted an eight minute speech from English into Czech, and asked the three groups of users (interpreters, lawyers and regular users of interpreting services - employees of multinational companies) to rate the performance in questionnaires designed for the purpose of this experiment. Subjects were asked to evaluate different criteria. Having processed the data collected in the questionnaires, we found that the differences were of statistical relevance in two categories only -...

Integration of Ryukyu territory and its inhabitants into the Japanese empire
Duchková, Jana ; Labus, David (referee) ; Sýkora, Jan (advisor)
Tato práce zachycuje průběh integrace rjúkjúského území a asimilaci jejího obyvatelstva v období od 70. let 19. století do konce 20. let 20. století. V průběhu tohoto časového úseku se projevily a vykrystalizovaly základní charakteristiky přístupu japonské vlády k okinawskému území a jeho obyvatelstvu. Vzestup nacionalismu a militarismu v japonské společnosti ve 30. letech pouze vyhrocoval snahy o asimilaci Okinawanů a jejich kultury a dováděl do extrémů již existující praktiky potlačování projevů jejich tradičních způsobů života. V první části práce je v krátkosti zachycen průběh včleňování okinawského území na mezinárodní úrovni a analýza přístupů japonských politiků k rjúkjúské otázce v období řešení rjúkjúské otázky (rjúkjú šobun). Část druhá se soustřeďuje na administrativní a kulturní úroveň integrace v rozmezí 70. let 19. století a roku 1895. Rok 1895 je důležitým mezníkem; po vítězství v čínsko- japonské válce se Okinawa definitivně stala diplomaticky nezpochybnitelnou součásti Japonska. Mnozí Okinawané až do této doby doufali ve vojenskou intervenci Číny v jejich prospěch a ignorovali japonské snahy o jejich integraci do japonské společnosti. Japonci vůči okinawské kultuře začali přistupovat jako k zaostalé a necivilizované, zatímco vše Japonské prezentovali jako moderní a kulturně na úrovni. Třetí...

VONDRÁKOVÁ, Zuzana
Ear diseases in childhood are relatively frequent. Of these, the most affecting and threatening the children in infant, toddler and preschool age is an infection of the middle ear. Despite the increasing quality of healthcare and development of vaccines that contribute to a reduction of the number of children diagnosed with acute otitis media, occurrences of these inflammations are still frequent. Inflammation of the ear is accompanied by a number of unpleasant symptoms and as well as other diseases it requires specific treatment and care. Going through an inflammation of the middle ear is for the child an unpleasant and often very painful experience. This disease also brings its own risks in terms of complications. Although its course is mostly without complications and treatment is directed by a pediatrician, we are dealing with cases where it is necessary to hospitalize a child patient. This work in its theoretical part refers to the types of otitis media, prevention, risk factors and complications. It describes the diagnosis, treatment and care for a child with otitis media. It also deals with the awareness of parents, points to a nursing problems associated with inflammation of the middle ear and the specifics of child care. In the empirical part of this thesis, two objectives were set. The first objective was to map the state of awareness of parents about the risk factors and preventive measures to prevent otitis media. The second objective was to determine the incidence of the most common problems in nursing care for children with otitis media. Four research questions were set for these objectives and it was: How are parents being educated regarding risk factors that can lead to ear disease of children? How are parents being informed about preventive measures to prevent ear disease in children? How parents perceive education on inflammatory diseases of ears? What are the most common problems in nursing care for a child with inflammatory diseases of the ears? For the processing of the empirical part of the research it was chosen quantitative research. The survey was carried out using the methods of data collection through semi-structured interviews. It was designed for two nurses working in GP for children and adolescents and four nurses working in the pediatric department. Another research group consisted of parents of children. Half of them had experience with caring for their own child who has undergone at least one ear infection. Respondents were before the start of the interview informed about the reason and purpose of the research. Interviews were held up with the express consent of each respondent addressed. Interviews were carried out on a pre-arranged location in the period March-May 2014. They were recorded using a voice recording and a written record.
