ZNANJE I STIGMA O POREMEĆAJU IZ SPEKTRA AUTIZMA KOD PROFESIONALACA U OBRAZOVNOM SISTEMU
Originalni naučni rad
Apstrakt
S obzirom na sve veću zastupljenost učenika sa poremećajima iz spektra autizma u redovnim školama, razumevanje znanja o specifičnostima ovog stanja i adekvatnim pristupima u radu sa ovom populacijom, kao i prisutnosti stigmatizacije među nastavnicima postaje ključno za uspešnost njihove inkluzije. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati znanje o poremećaju iz spektra autizma i stigmu prema ovom poremećaju kod nastavnika u obrazovnom sistemu, kao i međusobnu povezanost ovih varijabli. Istraživanje je obuhvatilo 155 učesnika istraživanja/nastavnika razredne i predmetne nastave u osnovnim školama, koji su popunjavali opšti upitnik i Upitnik za stigmu i znanje o autizmu (ASK-Q). Rezultati su pokazali da većina učesnika istraživanja ima adekvatno ukupno znanje o premećaju iz spektra autizma (96,13%) i nizak nivo stigmatizacije. Nastavnici koji poznaju osobu sa poremećajem iz spektra autizma ili imaju iskustvo rada sa ovom populacijom pokazali su statistički značajno bolje rezultate u znanju i manje stigmatizujuće stavove. Nisu utvrđene značajne razlike u znanju u zavisnosti od dužine radnog staža ili tipa nastave (razredna/predmetna). Analizom je ustanovljena pozitivna korelacija između nivoa znanja i smanjene stigme. Rezultati ukazuju na potrebu za kontinuiranom edukacijom nastavnika o dijagnozi i karakteristikama osoba sa premećajem iz spektra autizma, kao i na važnost podrške u stvaranju inkluzivnih obrazovnih uslova koji odgovaraju individualnim potrebama učenika sa poremećajem iz spektra autizma.
