The aim of diploma thesis is to cover the evolution and transformation of advertisement in connection with political, economical and social changes in the society in years 1918-1989. The work is primarily focused on nonverbal parts of the advertisement (image, color, graphics). For understanding of the advertisement as a whole it is necessary to take into account a verbal part too. Diploma thesis tries further to confirm or disprove a theory that advertisement can be one of the sources for cognition of values and standards of society. The work is divided into two big parts ? a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part contains general information about the advertisement that gives a summary about nature and functioning of the advertisement in particular historical periods. The theoretical part brings knowledge about an advertising discourse and its components (verbal and nonverbal) too. The important part of the work is classification of the advertisement into four stages of Czechoslovak society evolution in years 1918-1989. The second part of the work is focused on an analysis of acquired material that became the base for creation of whole this work. The database consists of six thousand advertisements acquired from printed journals. The material was collected in a period of more than one year. The basic sources were daily newspapers and between them especially their continuity in publishing was preferred. Due to the fact that the work tries to cover the period of seventy years long, the period of 1918-1989 is divided into four historical phases. Milestones of division into phases are important historical events that in consequence meant transformation of Czechoslovak society. Based on these social changes, changes of the advertisement and its nonverbal parts are monitored.

Nursing methods are understood as a collection of knowledge and instructions about how to perform nursing in order to achieve the most effective nursing care. It's not a set of fixed rules. Their development relies on the development of medicine and technology. They are in accordance with medicinal and technological knowledge. The goal of this thesis is to map the development of certain nursing methods in internal departments from the second half of the 19th century to the present day. It has been a qualitative research carried out by studying and analyzing written documents. This thesis was based on searching, sorting and consequent processing of historical archived publications and contemporary professional sources related to this topic. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the history of nursing. It contains a brief description of the beginning of nursing along with the factors which have influenced nursing. Foundations of modern nursing have formed thanks to Florence Nightingale, who also influenced the development of nursing in the Czech lands. The history of Czech nursing is mostly concentrated around the period of the world wars. The second part is dedicated to specific nursing activities concerning healthy living spaces, rooms for patients, patients? beds and their modifications, care of patients? hygiene and monitoring the vital functions. The timeframe begins at the first half of the 19th century due to the establishment of real nursing professions at that time. Individual stages are ten years long. They indicate complex development of specific nursing methods from their beginnings to the present day. Mapping the historical development of certain nursing methods can contribute to the modern nurse's work. Past knowledge can help them to avoid mistakes and use of outdated methods. My thesis may also lead to a reflection of current methods, which may be replaced by more advanced ones.

The aim of our diploma thesis is to identify and evaluate the impact of rules changes in 2010 on success of two-point shooting and three-point shooting between selected Czech and foreign players taking part in National Basketball League who have met with our specified conditions in examined seasons 2009/10 and 2010/11. There are following methods used in the very research in the empirical part: Student´s paired t-test, Two-sample F-test, Student´s unpaired t-test of equality of variances and Size of effect. The results of these tests has statistically confirmed our hypotheses H1 and H2 it means decreasing of two-point shooting success in season 2010/11 for all examined players and reducing of success at three-point throws between players with Czech nationality. On the contrary, it has not confirmed the hypothesis H3, thus increasing of three-point shooting success in season 2010/11 between foreign players. Substantively, I consider as a essential result the 20,1% impact of the rules changes on success of three-point shooting for players of Czech nationality.
