Abstract Svjesnost društva o jezičnim poremećajima Studentica: Ivana Cindrić Mentor: izv.prof.dr.sc. Jelena Kuvač Kraljević Program na kojem se polaže diplomski ispit: Logopedija Razvojni jezični poremećaji jedni su od najčešćih poremećaja koji se javljaju u predškolske i školske djece, a mogu značajno utjecati na kvalitetu života i akademski napredak. Svjesnost i znanje o razvojnim jezičnim poremećajima glavni je preduvjet dobroj prevenciji, ranom otkrivanju i intervenciji, kao i kvalitetnoj podršci. Ipak, informacije nisu dovoljno raširene i konzistentne te vlada opće mišljenje o niskoj svjesnosti o jezičnim poremećajima. Prvi korak prema višoj razini društvene svjesnosti jest vidjeti kolika je svjesnost društva o jezičnim poremećajima u Republici Hrvatskoj. Cilj rada je utvrditi razinu svjesnosti i znanja o jezičnim poremećajima te provjeriti postoje li razlike među ispitanicima s obzirom na spol, dob i obrazovanje. Namjerni uzorak je sačinjavao 81 ispitanik, a od toga je 40 muškaraca i 41 žena. Također, 28 ispitanika pripada mlađoj dobnoj skupini (18 – 39), 27 srednjoj dobnoj skupini (40-59), a 26 starijoj dobnoj skupini (60-70+). 40 ispitanika je visoko obrazovano, a 41 je nisko obrazovano. Ispitanici su dobrovoljno odlučili ispuniti upitnik pripremljen u sklopu COST projekta IS1406 (Radna Skupina 3) pod nazivom Poticanje djetetovih vještina govornog jezika u Europi i šire – suradnja usmjerena prema intervencijama. Upitnik se sastoji od 29 pitanja i tvrdnji podijeljenih u dva dijela: opći podatci i svjesnost i informiranost o jezičnim teškoćama. Dobiveni podatci na 9 odabranih pitanja unešeni su i obrađeni u statističkom programu IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows 25. Rezultati pokazuju da je svjesnost društva niska te 67,9% ispitanika tvrdi da je čulo za termin jezične teškoće, a primarni izvor informacija su mediji (45,75%). Većina ispitanika ne zna što taj termin predstavlja. 51,9% ispitanika je čulo za jezičnu terapiju te ti isti ispitanici smatraju logopeda odgovornom osobom za otkrivanje i terapiju jezičnih teškoća. Najboljim načinom dijeljenja informacija smatraju se edukacije u školama (95,1%) te informativna predavanja i radionice (93,8%). Uspoređujući rezultate s obzirom na spol, dob i obrazovanje, varijable dob i obrazovanje pokazale su se kao čimbenici koji statističko značajno utječu na razinu svjesnosti društva o jezičnim teškoćama. Tako srednja dobna skupina i visoko obrazovani ispitanici pokazuje značajno višu razinu svjesnosti jezičnih teškoća. Spol nije značajno utjecao na razinu svijesti, iako je brojčano više žena tvrdilo da su čule za termin jezične teškoće.
Abstract (english) Level of public awareness of language impairment Developmental language disorders are one of the most common disorders occurring in preschool and school children and they have a significant impact on quality of life and academic progress. Awareness of and knowledge about developmental language disorders is a prerequisite for good prevention, early detection and intervention and also therapy. However, informations are not sufficiently widespread and consistent and there is general view of low awareness of language disorders. The first step towards a higher level of public awareness is to see on what level is the awareness of language disorders in the Republic of Croatia. The aim of this paper is to measure the level of awareness and knowledge of lanugage disorders and to check if there are differences between respondents in terms of sex, age and education. The sample was made up of 81 respondents, of which 40 men and 41 women. Also, 28 respondents belong to the younger age group (18-39), 27 to the middle age group (40-59) and 26 to the older age group (60-70+). 40 respondents are highly educated and 41 are low educated. Respondents voluntarily decided to complete a questionnaire prepared under the COST project IS1406 (Working Group 3) entitled „Enhancing children's oral language skills across Europe and beyond - a collaboration focusing on interventions for children with difficulties learning their first language“. The questionnaire consists of 29 questions and statement sentences divided into two parts: general information and awareness and information about language difficulties. The data obtained from 9 selected questions has been entered and processed in the IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows 25. The results show that the awareness of the society is low and only 67,9% of the respondents claim to have heard of language difficulties but the most respondents do not know what that term means. Primary source of inormation is the media (45,75%). 51,9% of respondents have heard about language therapy and these same respondents consider the speech-language pathologist the person responsible for the discovery and therapy of language difficulties. The best way to share information is education in schools (95,1%) and informative lectures (93,8%). Comparing results in additon to gender, age and education shows that age and education have proved to be factors that statistically significantly affect the level of societyś awareness of language difficulties. Thus, the middle age group and the highly educated respondents showed a significantly higher level of awareness of language difficulties. Sex did not significantly affected the level od consciousness, although more woman claimed to have heard of language difficulties.
