The theoretical part offers an essential knowlidge about the mentioned phenomenas. Furthemore, it is to be found there the description of several international studies available. The empiric section was focused on the exploration of practising co-sleeping and its influence on many areas such as the developement of a trait anxiety during the childhod, a basic trust, a secure base, the feelig of an alienation and an insecure attachemet. The total lenght of a practised co-sleeping was also considered according to the theoretical knowledge which defines the ideal co-sleeping time from 0 to 2 years of a baby. The sample (n=101) included the pairs of a primary caregiver and a child, the age of children in the sample was specified from 9 to 12 years (9 and 12 included). For a data collection the translated version of SCARED questionnaire, the czech version of IPPA questionnaire and a custom initial questionnaire were used. The mathematical and statistical analyses was performed via Statistika 10 program, both of the parametric and a non-parametric testing were used (t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson´s correlation coeficient, Spearman´s rho). There were 4 hypoteses defined at the beggining. Anyway, none of them could be validated due to the statistic results. The causes and limits of this conclusion are finally summarized in the discussion.
