Popis This study deals with the psychological predictors in adolescence and correlates of psychosomatic symptoms in middle age. The Brno Longitudinal Study on Life-Span Development, running from 1961, focuses on stability and changes of personality, life experience, personality coherence and health. The sample consisted of 70 participants (29 men, 41 women; 41-44 years) who participated in this study. We used EPI at their 16 and SOC, NEO, TCI and Health Inventory at middle age. Results show psychological predictors of psychosomatic problems in adolescence. The most significant predictor was extraversion (-0.318; p<0.05) at their age of 16. At respondents’ middle age were found correlations between psychosomatic symptoms and extraversion (-0.267; p<0.05), neuroticism (0.431; p<0.01), sense of coherence (-0.361; p<0.01) and selfdirectedness(-0.352; p<0.01). The results of this unique study show importance of psychological antecedents for the extent of psychosomatic symptoms in the adulthood.
