Sumario:Aim: Our longitudinal study of successful development would not be complete without an analysis of the health-related aspects of this successful development.Method: A sample of 88 Czech adults (49 women, 39 men), participants of the Czech Longitudinal Study from 1956, was examined using a set of psychological methods and somato-physiological measures (weight, height, BMI, WHR, systolic and diastolic blood pressure), selected biochemical parameters (total cholesterol, triglycerides, glycaemia), a health questionnaire and measures focused on selected behavioural aspects of health (subjectively perceived health, overview of health problems and diseases, treatment).Results: The values of obtained results both of correlational and regression analyses are mostly low, reflecting the variables studied.Conclusion: The above mentioned data will offer a more comprehensive understanding of relationships and determinants between health, behavioural, psychological and social variables, predictors and outcomes within the adaptive functioning of personality during the life course.
