Although previous studies indicate that children and adolescents with CB may be at the risk of insecure attachment, our study suggested that adaptive mechanisms of their families together with professional help from specialized teachers and services provided by schools for children and adolescents with CB may play compensatory roles.

Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to assess the behavioral problems and the attachment characteristics of children and adolescents with congenital blindness (CB). Met­hod: Forty children and adolescents aged 11-14 years with CB were included as the case group. Forty healthy children and adolescents who were matched for age, gender, and socioeconomic status with the case group served as the comparison group. Behavioral problems were assessed by the Child Behavior Checklist for ages 4-18 (CBCL 4/18). Attachment characteristics were assessed via the Short Form of Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (s-IPPA). Re­sults: The case group had lower CBCL total problems scores as well as anxiety/ depression, withdrawal/depression, and attention problems subscales scores with respect to the comparison group. There were no significant differences between the two groups in s-IPPA scores. Conc­lu­si­on: Children and adolescents with CB did not differ from the comparison group in terms of attachment, whereas, they had lower scores on behavioral problems than the comparison group. Although previous studies indicate that children and adolescents with CB may be at the risk of insecure attachment, our study suggested that adaptive mechanisms of their families together with professional help from specialized teachers and services provided by schools for children and adolescents with CB may play compensatory roles.

Özet

Giriş: Bu çalışmanın amacı doğuştan görme engeli olan çocuk ve ergenlerde bağlanma özelliklerinin ve davranışsal sorunların incelenmesidir. Yön­tem­: Doğuştan görme engeli olan 11-14 yaşları arasındaki 40 çocuk ve ergen olgu grubu olarak çalışmaya alınmıştır. Karşılaştırma grubunu görme engelli grupla yaş, cinsiyet ve sosyoekonomik düzey bakımından eşleştirilmiş 40 sağlıklı çocuk ve ergen oluşturmuştur. Davranışsal sorunlar, 4-18 Yaş Grubu Çocuklar için Davranış Değerlendirme Ölçeği (ÇDDÖ 4/18) ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bağlanma özellikleri ise Ebeveyn ve Arkadaşlara Bağlanma Envanteri-Kısa Formu (EABE) ile incelenmiştir. Bul­gu­lar: Karşılaştırma grubuyla kıyaslandığında, doğuştan görme engelli grubun ÇDD֒nün anksiyete/depresyon, çekiniklik/depresyon ve dikkat problemleri alt ölçeklerindeki puanlarıyla toplam puanlarının daha düşük olduğu bulunmuştur. İki grubun EABE puanlarında ise anlamlı bir fark saptanmamıştır. So­nuç: Doğuştan görme engeli olan çocuk ve ergenler, davranışsal sorunlar açısından karşılaştırma grubuna göre daha düşük puanlar alırken, iki grup bağlanma özellikleri açısından farklı bulunmamıştır. Daha önceden yapılan çalışmalarda doğuştan görme engeli olan çocuk ve ergenlerin bağlanma problemleri açısından risk altında oldukları bildirilmelerine karşın, çalışmamızın sonuçları doğuştan görme engeli olan çocuk ve ergenlerin ailelerinin uyuma yönelik tutumlarıyla özel öğretmenlerin ve servislerin yardımlarının telafi edici bir rol oynayabileceğini göstermektedir.
