Abstract

Background: Under the influence of numerous life factors, speech constantly undergoes changes. Parents of children with speech and language disorders have a lower quality of life compared to the parents of children without. The study examined different domains of the quality of life of families with and without speech disorders.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Serbia, in 2024, on a sample of 206 preschool children aged 5-7 years and their parents/guardians. As a research instrument, in addition to the General Questionnaire on sociodemographic characteristics of children and parents' respondents/guardians, the Family Quality of Life Survey (FQOL) was used to assess the family's quality of life.

Results: Articulation disorder was detected in 78.2% of children. Difference between the two groups of parents was found in terms of place of residence, work status, education levels, and children's age. From the five domains of family quality of life, significance was found in the domain of family interaction regarding the support, support related to disability, and family safety. Regarding the physical/material well-being domain, the significance was found for dental care and parenting domains. No differences were found in the domain of emotional well-being.

Conclusion: The importance of the study reflects in the possibility of applying the obtained research results for the creation of educational programs that will encourage positive attitudes of parents and children about speech therapy interventions, which can influence successful rehabilitation of speech disorders and improve family quality of life.

语言障碍儿童家庭的生活质量。
背景:在众多生活因素的影响下,言语不断发生变化。与没有言语障碍的孩子的父母相比,有言语和语言障碍孩子的父母的生活质量更低。这项研究调查了有语言障碍和没有语言障碍的家庭生活质量的不同领域。方法:于2024年在塞尔维亚对206名5-7岁学龄前儿童及其父母/监护人进行横断面研究。作为研究工具,除了对儿童和家长受访者/监护人的社会人口学特征进行一般问卷调查外,还使用了家庭生活质量调查(FQOL)来评估家庭生活质量。结果:78.2%患儿存在发音障碍。两组父母在居住地、工作状态、教育水平和子女年龄方面存在差异。从家庭生活质量的五个领域来看,家庭互动在支持、残疾相关支持和家庭安全方面具有重要意义。关于身体/物质幸福领域,在牙齿保健和养育子女领域发现了重要性。在情感幸福感方面没有发现差异。结论:本研究的重要性体现在有可能将获得的研究结果应用于创建教育计划,以鼓励父母和儿童对语言治疗干预的积极态度,这可以影响语言障碍的成功康复,提高家庭生活质量。
