Etnografické nahlédnutí na zkušenost hráčů Dračího Doupěte
No full textRoudel: Ethnographic insight into the experience of the players of Dungeons and Dragons Vedoucí práce: PhDr. Marek Halbich, Ph.D. Bc. Tereza Marešová 2022 Abstract In this project, I try my hand at ethnography of the game Dungeons and Dragons through the experience of one specific group of players in a long-term game campaign which through game elements builds sociality between players. I deal with issues of binarity of everyday life and game experience through the theory of the Magic Circle, the virtual pre-cybernetic nature of this game and community and its influence on building relationships, game structure, rules and ways of interacting with them, reasons why players return to this game repeatedly and possible problematic consequences. I also look at my experience with this very ethnography- friendly game, which supports my conclusions. The research is conducted in a closed group of Czech players holding through two campaigns between 2019 and 2022, with additional interviews from other volunteers from the ranks of Czech Dungeons and Dragons players.

Tereza Marešová 2022 Abstrakt Projekt se zabývá etnografií hry Dungeons and Dragons skrze zkušenost jedné konkrétní skupiny hráčů, včetně mě samotné, v dlouhodobé herní kampani která skrze herní prvky buduje socialitu mezi hráči. Zabývám se otázkami binarity běžného života a herního zážitku skrze teorii Magického kruhu, virtuální před-kybernetické podstatou této hry i komunity a jejím vlivem na budování vztahů, herní strukturou, pravidly a způsoby interakce s nimi, důvody proč se hráči k této hře opakovaně vrací a případné problematické důsledky. Taktéž nahlížím na svoji zkušenost s touto velmi etnografii přátelskou hrou, které podporují moje závěry. Výzkum je proveden v uzavřené skupině českých hráčů držících při sobě skrze dvě kampaně mezi lety 2019 až 2022, s přídavnými rozhovory od dalších dobrovolníků z řad českých hráčů Dungeons and Dragons.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
ELEVEN FACES OF JAN GOGOL, JR.
No full textAuthor Jan Rendl in his thesis attempts to look at the world of ideas and educator Jan
Gogola ml. through the eleven chapters in which each chapter somehow characterizes itself by Jan Gogola ml. and each of them somehow determines its creative ideas of it through the metaphor of a football match when Jan Gogola, with its characters, movies himself a teammate, as well as defensively. It gives goals with their situations as well as occasionally digging his opponents ankles.
Jan Gogola ml. thus embodies one stage of the Department of Documentary Film at FAMU, which often stands at the intersection between teaching activities and Karel Vachek among students who applied by them during their seminars psychological methods that work must be peculiarly associated with the author of the film
Digital footprint on own computer and the Internet
No full textThe objective of this bachelor's degree paper is to evidence the negative impact and potential losses associated with unmanaged personal information sharing on the internet and then to provide solutions as to how to mitigate potential threats. This paper first addresses the definition of the digital footprint and its impact before describing in the Second Chapter the potential risks that are connected with leaving an unmanaged digital footprint. In order to investigate the levels of willingness of internet users to share their personal and private information I utilized a Questionnaire to interpret their understanding of privacy, risks associated with loss of privacy, identity theft and the levels of protection they adopt whilst being online. The final part of this Paper describes various means of personal data protection and how to mitigate, manage and minimize one's own digital track

Magazine for catholic clergy) and the last phase by his pontifical years in the diocese of Southern Bohemia. His literary work is divided by theme into various periods, shortly described and characterized. The last and major section of this thesis deals with the most comprehensive and renown work of Jan Valerián Jirsík - Populární dogmatika (trans. Popular doctrine).
