Objects Many demographic factors are associated with children's psychosomatic complaints, including age, gender, family affluence background, and so on. However, the strength of the associations varies crossing countries. As there was no national perspective based evidence regarding children's psychosomatic complaints in the Czech Republic, this study was aimed to investigate the relationships of several demographic factors and children's psychosomatic complaints. Methods We adopted the national survey data of Health Behaviours of School-Aged Children in the Czech Republic, which was conducted from the year of 2017 to 2018. 12166 children were included in the analysis. Results Compared to boys, girls were more likely to demonstrate psychosomatic complaints. The complaints increased as age. In addition, family socioeconomic status (SES) was found to be significantly correlated to psychosomatic complaints. Moreover, children's communications with parents might possibly mediate the relationships of all the above demographic factors and children's psychosomatic complaints. Conclusion The gender of female, aging in puberty period and poor SES background are risk factors for school-aged children's self-reported psychosomatic health conditions in the Czech Republic. The results suggest the importance of parent-child relationship related intervention programs, especially aiming for poorer families, to decrease the risk of psychosomatic symptoms among children in disadvantaged economical positions.
