Abstract
The article concerns the research results of preschoolers prone to respiratory infections, their psychological characteristics and comparing data with those of healthy children. The research sample consisted of 59 children of 6–7 years old: 30 children having respiratory infections more than 5 times per year, and 29 healthy children. In the group of children prone to respiratory infections two types of attitude to the disease have been found out: indifferent and ambivalent. There were also two types in the group of healthy children: ambivalent and negative. The correlation between anxiety level and the type of attitude to the disease has been marked in the first group. There was a statistically sufficient difference in degrees of orthobiosis between two groups.
