Abstract

Socijalne vještine naučeni su oblici ponašanja koja se uče i razvijaju cijeli život promatranjem
i imitacijom interakcija u različitim situacijama iz okoline. Omogućuju pojedincu da učinkovito
surađuje i ostvaruje interakciju s drugima te da uspješno funkcionira u socijalnoj okolini.
Oštećenje vida ograničava mogućnosti za spontano učenje istih, stoga je slijepoj i slabovidnoj
djeci potrebno verbalno opisati i demonstrirati različita socijalna ponašanja. U procesu razvoja
socijalnih vještina roditelji imaju veliku ulogu jer su oni prvi socijalizacijski faktor s kojim se
dijete susreće. Njihov najintenzivniji razvoj odvija se u školskoj dobi, pogotovo adolescenciji
– prijelaznom razdoblju između djetinjstva i odrasle dobi kojeg karakteriziraju brojne fizičke,
emocionalne i kognitivne promjene te socijalni izazovi. Cilj ovog rada je utvrditi postoje li,
prema procjeni roditelja, razlike u području socijalnih vještina između učenika oštećena vida
srednjoškolskog uzrasta s obzirom na spol i stupanj oštećenja vida. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo
20 roditelja učenika oštećena vida: 9 roditelja učenika i 11 roditelja učenica. Prema stupnju
oštećenja vida 11 je slabovidnih, a 9 slijepih učenika. Za procjenu socijalnih vještina korištena
je subskala socijalnih vještina instrumenta Social Skills Improvement System (Gresham i Elliot,
2008). Roditelji su procjenjivali socijalne vještine svoje djece u područjima komunikacije,
kooperativnosti, asertivnosti, odgovornosti, empatije, uključenosti i samokontrole. Rezultati su
pokazali da postoje statistički značajne razlike u području socijalnih vještina između učenika i
učenica oštećena vida te između slijepih i slabovidnih učenika.

Abstract (english)

Social skills are learned behaviors that develop throughout life by observing and imitating
interactions in different situations from the environment. These skills help an individual to
cooperate effectively, interact with others and to function successfully in the social
environment. Visual impairment limits the possibilities for spontaneous learning of the same,
therefore it is necessary to verbally describe and demonstrate different social behaviours to
blind and partially sighted children. In the process of developing social skills, parents play a
big role because they are the first socialization factor the child encounters. Their most intensive
development takes place at school age, especially adolescence - a transitional period between
childhood and adulthood characterized by numerous physical, emotional and cognitive changes
and social challenges. The aim of this paper is to determine whether, according to parents, there
are differences in the field of social skills between high school students with visual impairments
with regard to gender and the degree of visual impairment. The research involved 20 parents of
adolescents with visual impairment: 9 parents of boys and 11 parents of girls. According to the
degree of visual impairment, 11 students were visually impaired and 9 were blind. A subscale
of the instrument Social Skills Improvement System (Gresham i Elliot, 2008) was used for the
assessment of social skills. Parents assessed their children’s social skills in the areas of
communication, cooperation, assertiveness, responsibility, empathy, involvement, and selfcontrol. The results have shown that there are statistically significant differences in the field of
social skills between boys and girls with visual impairment and between blind and partially
sighted students.
