Abstract

Roditelji zauzimaju ključnu ulogu u skrbi i odgoju svoga djeteta. U obiteljima djece s poteškoćama u razvoju ta uloga je još i veća. Brojna provedena istraživanja pokazala su kako su obitelji djece s poteškoćama u razvoju izložene svakodnevnim psihičkim i fizičkim naporima. Zadatak edukacijskog rehabilitatora je, osim provođenja programa i/ili procjena i neposrednog rada sa djecom s teškoćama, podrška, osnaživanje i razumijevanje njihovih roditelja. Kako bi to bilo ostvarivo važno je uzeti u obzir njihovu percipiranu kvalitetu života. Problem ovog istraživanja je ispitati postoje li razlike u subjektivnoj percipiranoj kvaliteti života između roditelja djece urednog razvoja, roditelja djece s intelektualnim i pridruženim poteškoćama te roditelja djece sa PSA, kao i utvrditi razliku između majki i očeva. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 182 roditelja. Istraživanje je provedeno na području grada Osijeka. Za potrebe istraživanja kvalitete života korištena su tri upitnika: PWI (Personal Wellbeing Index), WHOQOL-BREF upitnik te Opći upitnik. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da postoji statistički značajna razlika u procijenjenoj kvaliteti života između roditelja djece urednog razvoja i roditelja djece s poteškoćama u većini dimenzija PWI te kategorija WHOQOLBREF-a. Statističke značajne razlike s obzirom na poteškoću djeteta u procijenjenoj kvaliteti života roditelja nisu utvrđene. Nadalje, s obzirom na spol ispitanika utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika između majki djece s poteškoćama te majki djece urednog razvoja u tri dimenziji PWI instrumenta, no između očeva djece s poteškoćama i očeva djece urednog razvoja nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika ni u jednoj dimenziji. S obzirom na razlike između majki i očeva djece s poteškoćama, utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika samo u jednoj dimenziji PWI instrumenta, dok u njihovoj ukupnoj kvaliteti života nisu utvrđene statistički značajne razlike.

Abstract (english)

Parents have a key role in the care and upbringing of their child. In families of children with developmental difficulties this role is even greater. Numerous studies have shown that families of children with developmental difficulties are exposed to daily mental and physical efforts. Apart from the implementation of programs and/or assessment and direct work with children with disabilities, the task of the educational rehabilitator is to support, empower and understand their parents. In order to achieve this, it is important to take into account their perceived quality of life. The problem of this research is to examine whether there are differences in the subjective peceived quality of life between parents of children without disabilities, parents of children with intellectual and associated difficulties and parents of children with ASD, as well as determining the difference between mothers and fathers. The study involved 182 parents. The research was conducted in the city of Osijek. Three questionnaires were used for the quality of life survey: PWI (Personal Wellbeing Index), WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire and Generic Inquiry. Research findings show that there is a statistically significant difference in the estimated quality of life between parents of children without disabilities and parents of children with disabilities in most dimensions of PWI and WHOQOL-BREF categories. Statistically significant differences in the estimated quality of life of parents with regard to the child's difficulty have not been established. Furthermore, given the gender of the respondents, a statistically significant difference was found between the mothers of children with disabilities and the mothers of children of neat development in three dimensions of PWI instrument, but there was no statistically significant difference between the fathers of children with disabilities and fathers of neat development in any dimension. Given the differences between mothers and fathers of children with disabilities, statistically significant difference was established only in one dimension PWI instrument, while in the overall quality of life no statistically significant differences were found.
