Summary/Abstract: The aim of the research is to clarify the relationships between surviving anxiety and the relationship of adolescents to their parents. One of the possible causes of anxiety in pupils is their relationship with their parents. We used the STAI (Spielberger, 1983) to identify anxiety, and we used a questionnaire on parental rearing behaviour (Arrindell et al., 1999) to determine the relationship between pupils and parents. There search sample consisted of 219 primary and secondary school pupils. The results show that there are statistically significant relationships between the experienced anxiety and the attachment of primary and secondary school pupils.
