Velek, Matěj ; Bartoš, Hynek (advisor) ; Pětová, Marie (referee)
Presented work aims to collect and revise the results of the previous researches related to Vitruvius' De Architectura. It is exclusively based on the works published in English. It offers a detailed introduction to Vitruvius and his treatise on the grounds of analysis of the broader historical context - the Octavian's reconstruction of the City of Rome. Finally and most importantly it proposes original approach towards proper understanding of Vitruivus' De Architectura in general. According to presented work, one usually neglected part - 'the origin of building' - of the treatise contains a unique importance with respect to the general account of architecture. It deals with the crucial role of architecture within the development of the humankind while illustrating the relation between the human nature and environment in order to present its mutual dependency.

Trnka, Radek ; Vančata, Václav (advisor) ; Bartoš, Hynek (referee) ; Šípek, Jiří (referee)
Two hundred and one college students (101 females, 100 males) voluntarily participated in the present study. 7 basic facial expressions of human and 10 basic facial expressions of chimpanzee were used as stimulus. Slides were presented by data-projector on a projecting screen in the experimental room, while students judged individual facial expressions. After the judgment session, students filled out the Czech short version of the Personal Attributes Questionnaire (PAQ; Spence & Helmreich, 1978). Data were assessed in general linear model with decoding accuracy for human facial expressions as a dependent variable and sex of subjects and M-F types of persons as effects. Biological sex was found to be significant for correct recognition of human facial expressions. M-F types had no significant influence to accuracy of decoding of human facial expressions. Additional t-test showed females reached higher accuracy scores for human facial expressions than males.
