Abstract

Učestalost zanemarivanja djece rane i predškolske dobi s obzirom na procjenu odgojitelja i studenata predškolskog odgoja Djeca rane i predškolske zbog svog intenzivnog rasta i razvoja u ranjivoj su poziciji kada je u pitanju nasilje nad njima, pa tako i kada je u pitanju zanemarivanje. Zanemarivanje djece rašireni je problem koji sa sobom nosi kobne posljedice na sve aspekte dječjeg razvoja te je iz tog razloga vrlo bitna prevencija, ali i intervencija kada je zanemarivanje već prisutno u dječjem životu. Cilj ovog rada je istražiti učestalost zanemarivanja djece rane i predškolske dobi. Istraživanje prikazano u radu provedeno je 2018. godine u Dječjem vrtiću „Vrtuljak“ i na Učiteljskom fakultetu u Zagrebu. Cilj istraživanja je bio ispitati učestalost zanemarivanja djece rane i predškolske dobi s obzirom na procjenu odgojitelja i studenata predškolskog odgoja. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 46 odgojitelja i 49 studenta. Za potrebe ovog istraživanja korišteni su slijedeći instrumenti: upitnik sociodemografskih karakteristika ispitanika (spol, zanimanje), Skala za procjenu učestalosti zanemarivanja djece rane i predškolske dobi te skala procjene kompetencije odgojitelja i studenata. Na osnovu istraživanja može se zaključiti da je zanemarivanje djece rane i predškolske dobi relativno često. Također, rezultati su pokazali da, unatoč tome što se većina odgojitelja i studenata smatra kompetentnima za rad sa zanemarenom djecom, samo 65,1% odgojitelja smatra se educiranima o zanemarivanja. Ovi rezultati ukazuju na potrebu za edukacijom svih odgojitelja o ovom problemu, te o važnosti osiguravanja cjeloživotnog učenja kako bi odgojitelji uvijek bili spremni zaštititi dječja prava i dječju dobrobit. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da je 76,7% odgojitelja, a 93,8% studenata spremno prijaviti zanemarivanje djece te se iz toga može vidjeti važnost u osvještavanju odgojitelja o njihovoj obvezi prijavljivanja zanemarivanja i zaštiti djece od nasilja. Pregledom literature nađeno je izrazito malo istraživanja vezanih za problem zanemarivanja djece rane i predškolske dobi. S obzirom da je mlađa dob jedan od rizičnih faktora za pojavu zanemarivanja te da su djeca u dobi do tri godine života najviše zanemarivana i najranjivija, u budućnosti bi bilo poželjno u većoj mjeri istražiti prisutnost ovog problema kada su u pitanju djeca rane i predškolske dobi.

Abstract (english)

The incidence of child neglect in early childhood with regard to the assessment of preschool teachers and students of preschool education Younger children because of its intense growth and development are in vulnerable position when it comes to violence against them, as well as neglect. Neglect is a widespread problem that brings with it fatal consequences on all aspects of child development and for this reason prevention is very important, but also an intervention when neglect is already present in children's life. The aim of this paper is to investigate the incidence of child neglect in early childhood. The research presented in the paper was carried out in 2018 in the kindergarten "Vrtuljak" and at the Faculty of Teacher Education in Zagreb. The aim of the research was to examine the incidence of child neglect in early childhood with regard to the assessment of preschool teachers and students of preschool education. The study included 46 preschool teachers and 49 students of preschool education. For the purposes of this study, the following instruments were used: a questionnaire of socio-demographic characteristics (gender, occupation), scale for estimating the incidence of child neglect and competence assessment scale. From the results it can be concluded that neglecting early and preschool children is relatively common. The results also show that despite the fact that most preschool teachers and students consider themselves competent to work with neglected children, only 65.1% of preschool teachers are considered to be educated in the area of neglect. These results points to the need for educating all preschool teachers about this problem and the importance of lifelong learning so that preschool teachers are always ready to protect children's rights and child welfare. The results show that 76.7% of preschool teachers and 93.8% of students are willing to report neglect of children. From this, it can be seen the importance of educating the preschool teachers about their obligation to report neglect and protect children from violence. Literature review has showed a very small number of researches related to the problem of neglecting early and preschool children. Considering the fact that younger age is one of the risk factors for the neglect and that children up to three years are the most neglected and most vulnerable, in the future it would be desirable to more fully investigate the presence of this problem when it comes to children of early and preschool age.
