| Abstract | Mucanje je kompleksan i višeslojan razvojni poremećaj koji utječe na emocionalne, socijalne, obrazovne i profesionalne aspekte života osobe koja muca. Osobe koje mucaju nerijetko se susreću s negativnim stereotipima i mišljenima od strane osoba koje ne mucaju. Djeca vrlo rano, već u predškolskoj dobi počinju primjećivati netečnosti u govoru što kod mnoge djece izaziva čuđenje i zadirkivanje. Ovaj problem nastavlja se i u školskoj dobi kada djeca postaju više izložena govornim i socijalnim situacijama, stoga djeca koja mucaju često postaju žrtve vršnjačkog nasilja u školi što za sobom može ostaviti razne negativne posljedice na djetetovu sliku o sebi, obrazovni i profesionalni uspjeh te na psihičko zdravlje. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati mišljenje djece koja ne mucaju o vršnjacima koji mucaju, kako bi se stekao uvid u osviještenost djece o mucanju te ispitati razlikuju li se djeca u mišljenju s obzirom na to poznaju li osobu koja muca i s obzirom na dob. Za potrebe istraživanja kreiran je upitnik po uzoru na ljestvicu „Peer Attitudes Toward Children who Stutter“ (PATCS) kojom se ispituje mišljenje djece o vršnjacima koji mucaju. Upitnik se sastoji od 39 pitanja podijeljenih u tri podskupine koje ispituju pozitivnu socijalnu distancu, pritisak društva i verbalnu interakciju. Upitnik je ispunilo sveukupno 116 djece učenika 3. i 4. te 5. i 6. razreda osnovne škole. Deskriptivnom analizom utvrđeno je da su mišljenja djece većinski pozitivna, a neparamtrijskom statistikom pokazalo se da ne postoji statistički značajna razlika između mišljenja djece koja poznaju osobu koja muca i djece koja ne poznaju osobu koja muca kao ni između mišljenja mlađe djece (učenika 3. i 4. razreda) i starije djece (učenika 5. i 6. razreda). |
| Abstract (english) | Stuttering is a complex and multifactored developmental disorder that affects the emotional, social, educational and professional aspects of the life of a person who stutters. People who stutter often encounter negative stereotypes and opinions from people who do not stutter. Children as early as preschool, begin to notice disfluency in speech, often they are confused by it and sometimes they respond by teasing. This problem continues through school years, when children become more exposed to speech and social situations, therefore children who stutter often become victims of bullying at school, which can leave various negative consequences for the child's self-image, educational and professional success, and mental health. The goal of this research was to examine the opinion of children who do not stutter about their peers who stutter, in order to gain insight into children's awareness of stuttering, and to examine whether children differ in their opinion based on whether they know a person who stutters and based on their age. For the purposes of the research, a questionnaire based on the "Peer Attitudes Toward Children who Stutter" (PATCS) scale was created, which examines the opinion of children about their peers who stutter. The questionnaire consists of 39 questions divided into three subgroups that examine positive social distance, social pressure and verbal interaction. A total of 116 children of the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grades of elementary school filled out the questionnaire. Descriptive analysis showed that the majority of children's opinions were positive, and non-parametric statistics showed that there is no statistically significant difference between the opinions of children who know a person who stutters and children who do not know a person who stutters, as well as between the opinions of younger children (students 3rd and 4th grade) and older children (5th and 6th grade students). |
