Переконання щодо різних видів психологічної допомоги та батьківське ставлення у батьків дітей із дислексією

Abstract

The artcile is devoted to the problems of contemporary psychology – beliefs, various forms of psychological support and the speci0cxFB01ity of parental atttiudes of parents of children with dyslexia. The aim of this artcile is to analyze the pa­ rents’ beliefs about typical forms of psychological support in the context of the developmental dyslexia in their children and in terms of parental atttiudes mani- fested by parents. The artcile shows that the parents’ beliefs about the validity, e0exFB00ctvieness and necessity of psychological support are of great importance, because they determine the level of the child’s commitment in the o0exFB00red help. The study was carried out on 50 adults aged 25–45 (25 parents of children with dyslexia, 25 parents of nondyslexic children), with the use a self­designed survey which examined the beliefs concerning typical forms of psychological support and the Parental Attitudes Scale by M. Plopa. The study did not show any di0exFB00rences between the parents of dyslexic and non­dyslexic children in terms of the validity and e0exFB00ctiveness of the diag­ nosis, consultations and psychotherapy, regardless of their own experience with regard to the child’s use of help. It was found that the parents’ experience regarding to the frequency of using psychological, logopedic and pedagogical care by their children is not a decisive factor in parents’ convictions relating to various types of professional support. There are single links between some parental attitudes and parents’ be- liefs about various aspects of psychological support; there are no di0exFB00rences in intensity of these links in parents of dyslexic and non­dyslexic children. It was found that parents’ beliefs regarding psychological support may be due to the other factors that we have not taken into consideration and will be in- vestigated in our further research.
