The incidence of cardiovascular disease is linked to the risk factors of lifestyle. Traditional influences are smoking, diet, physical activity and psychosocial factors. Psychosocial factors include low socio-economic status, lack of social support, work-related stress and the state or type of family life, depression and anxiety, and hostility. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the connection of the views on selected psychosocial factors of cardiovascular diseases with selected sociodemographic characteristics. A quantitative method using quantitative interviews was used to achieve the objectives. In total, 1,992 persons aged 40 years and older were addressed. The set was representative of age, gender, and residence. The information obtained was subjected to statistical analysis and the rate of dependence was assessed by the chi-2 test, the t-test and the analysis of the test. The results show that in prevention the doctors are focused on obtaining information about the employment of their patients, the patient's lifestyle and how the diagnosed cardiovascular disease affects the normal life of patients. Less often, in practice, questions on socio-economic factors are found. In most questions, there was a significant link with age, employment and family status. Positive questions were more often answered by respondents over the age of 60, widowed respondents and respondents in disability or retirement age. This may be related to targeted interventions for these vulnerable groups of patients. For most respondents, the family is a foothold of lifestyle change.
