title: [Emotional parent-child bonding as a research topic].
abstract: The author of the article introduces different themes of the study of emotional bonding between parents and children. Bonding behaviour is shown as significant factor influencing both psychical and physical health of children in different periods of their lives. Intergenerational emotional relationships create life background and the sense of stable, life certainty and safely. In this sense they become the source of active life of the individual in various ages. Several basic groups of factors, which participate on forming of these emotional bondings are further described in the text together with examples of the interventions making in the frame of family and health policy. Text represents the introduction to a series of articles which will open new knowledges about the formulation of bonding behaviour gained in the unique empiric study to a public. The research project "The Influence of the Family Life Style On the Course of the Pregnancy" was realised in the years 1996-1998 at the Research Institute of Child Health in Brno.
