Abstract

Osobe s intelektualnim teškoćama okružene stigmom okoline bivaju socijalno isključene i ograničeno im je ostvarivanje njihovih prava. Potrebno je razviti svijest o njihovoj potrebi za intimnosti, partnerstvom i roditeljstvom te im je potrebna pomoć kako bi ostvarili te potrebe i prava. U tome se ogleda važnost uloge stručnjaka koji pružaju pomoć i podršku u rješavanju životnih problema i savladavanju životnih kompetencija. Ovim istraživanjem nastojao se dobiti uvid u stavove studenata pomažućih profesija o seksualnosti osoba s lakim i umjerenim intelektualnim teškoćama. Istraživanje je provedeno putem web ankete na uzorku od 205 studenata pomažućih profesija koji studiraju u Gradu Zagrebu. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati stavove studenata o seksualnosti, partnerstvu i roditeljstvu osoba s lakim i umjerenim intelektualnim teškoćama te otkriti postoji li razlika u stavovima s obzirom na pojedina sociodemografska obilježja. Rezultati su pokazali razliku u stavovima s obzirom na dob, studij, fakultet, razinu studija, studentski status, religioznost, bliskost i kontakt s osobom s intelektualnim teškoćama. Istraživanje je pokazalo važnost edukacije i stjecanja što višeg stupnja obrazovanja stručnjaka te direktnog rada s osobama s intelektualnim teškoćama kako bi se osvijestila potreba osoba s intelektualnim teškoćama za seksualnosti.

The research showed the importance of education and obtaining the highest possible level of education of experts and direct work with people with intellectual disabilities in order to create awareness of need of people with intellectual disabilities for sexuality.
