This article deals with the topic of reliability of language didactic tests in the framework of language testing. Gained data serve as a means for interpretation and moderation of testing at the language department. Tested students are 1st and 2nd year students of the Faculty of Security Management and the Faculty of Security Management and Security and Legal Studies of the Police Academy of the Czech Republic. For determining the reliability the measurable indicator index of inner consistence with subdivision into scales was set, these scales were used for setting the criteria for the evaluation of the reliability of sub-tests. The reliability of sub-tests is interpreted in a wider contest and is an important step to the optimization of the testing process of creating a test bank for the language department.

Východiska: Bezdicek, Preiss a Dockalova (2009) a Preiss a Macudova (2012) sledovali pocet publikaci ceských docentů a profesorů psychologie a zhodnotili ji jej jako nedostatecný – samotne množstvi publikaci vsak neřika nic o jejich kvalitě. Jednim z ukazatelů kvality výzkumu je jeho replikovatelnost, ktera je přitom jednim z nosných temat soucasne světove psychologie. Ukazuje se totiž, že přinejmensim cast psychologickeho výzkumu replikovatelna neni (zejm. Open Science Collaboration, 2015; Klein a kol., 2016) a že nalezene efekty ve skutecnosti neexistuji. Naopak efekty, ktere existuji, mohou zůstat skryty v důsledku spatně naplanovaneho výzkumu a nizke sily testů. Cile: Představime statisticke postupy pro odhad replikovatelnosti výzkumu a aplikujeme je na ceske psychologicke publikace. Soubor: Vzorek byl nahodně vybran ze vsech ceských casopiseckých publikaci indexovaných na Web of Science, u nichž bylo možne ziskat full-text a ktere testovaly alespoň jednu hypotezu. Ke každe publ...
Journal for the theory of language and language cultivation, 2014
Against the background of various linguistic and non-linguistic fields of study, we present an initial definition of the concept of language management as an activity focused on any aspect of language or communication or on language or communication as a whole. We explain the position of Language Management Theory (LMT) as a sociolinguistic theory in relation to varying paradigms of language policy and planning. In this context, the theory's historical origins, which extend back to the collaborative work of J. V. Neustupný and B. H. Jernudd beginning in the 1960s, are elucidated. We summarize the reflection, categorization, and integration of LMT by other authors (R. Baldauf, B. Spolsky, M. Mwaniki and others), and also present critical views of these authors' work. We then outline the main aspects of LMT: typical contexts in which lan- guage is managed, the relationship between simple and organized management, the connection of language, communicative and sociocultural mana...

Implementation of Selected Communication Functions in Comparison of Non-Native and Native Speakers of Czech. The goal of the paper is to present analysis of a personal apology letter with formal features written by Ukrainian examinees during the Examination of the Czech Language for Permanent Residence in the Czech Republic. The study does not present a complex analysis of the letters, but it concentrates on selected linguistic phenomena tied up to the functions of an introductory greeting, apology from a meeting and proposal of a new meeting, expression of farewell. The investigation presented in the paper aims to (1) make an inventory of linguistic means used by non-native speakers to achieve the task given, (2) analyse their use and to (3) compare the results with those reported on the basis of a similar analysis conducted on a native speakers' corpus. It seeks to answer the following questions: (1) What type of means do non-native speakers use to express the communicative functions under the interest? (2) What is the frequency of the means? Does it create any pattern of the interlanguage? (3) How do the non-native speakers express the function in comparison to the native speaker use? The corpus built for the analysis consists of letters selected during the Examination of the Czech Language for Permanent Residence in the CR in years 2013-2014. The participants selected were the Ukrainian native speakers, all living and working in the Czech Republic for 5 years at least. There are 141 letters finally included into the corpus. The letters were written on the basis of a short printed verbal and visual prompt in an essay examination. The same task was given to a group of native speakers. This group included 23 Czech native speakers of various age, level of education and occupation. We analysed the letters of this group at the same way as the letters of the examinees, the result served as the prototype of the Czech native speakers and allowed the comparison and the frame for description of variants in the learners' language.

Theatre Based Method Requiring a Qualitative Approach for Measuring the Progress of Learners. In this article we introduce a teaching methodology "theatre pedagogy" ("MJT"), which is used in teaching Czech for foreigners. The primary goal of MJT is not only to positively influence the acquisition of language, but also to focus on sociolinguistic, discourse, sociocultural and social and strategic competences. Theatre practices also help students overcome their fear of talking (i.e. reduce the fear of making a mistake while speaking), it also strengthens communication, interaction and social skills of students. The second part of this text presents our empirical research used to validate MJT. The foundations of this analysis are video recording of role plays which students prepare throughout the classwork. The evaluation of particular role plays is more qualitative than quantitative: it is based on assessment criteria and assessment grids, the main keys for evaluation are fulfillment of role play instructions, success rate of information transfer with a partner, meeting of various communication competences. Each criterion is commented in a table and then scored.

Diskuse o vhodnosti zařazovat do výuky češtiny pro cizince také jevy z jiných variet národního jazyka, než je jazyk spisovný, a vkládat je do učebnic, je v dnešní době velmi živá. 1 Všichni autoři, kteří se k tomuto tématu vyjadřovali, se shodují v tom, že je třeba s jinými útvary češtiny studenty -cizince seznamovat, a mít tedy k dispozici adekvátní učební materiály. Otázkou však nadále zůstává, kterou z variet češtiny do výuky zařadit, popř. které variety, a v jaké míře o ní, resp. o nich, studenty informovat a na které úrovni pokročilosti zahájit výuku různých jevů jiných útvarů češtiny. Cílem tohoto příspěvku je analyzovat v současnosti nejpoužívanější učebnice češtiny pro cizince z tohoto pohledu: zda se v nich vyskytují prvky jiných útvarů národního jazyka, v jaké míře se tyto prvky objevují a na kterých jazykových rovinách. Omezíme se -vzhledem k složitosti a šíři naznačené problematiky -na učebnice pro začátečníky, a to rovněž z toho důvodu, abychom zjistili, v jaké fázi znalosti cizího jazyka jsou doposud jiné útvary češtiny do výuky cizinců zařazovány.
