Kakovost življenja oseb z motnjo v duševnem razvoju z njihove perspektive : magistrsko delo

Sunčič, Janja (author), Žgur, Erna (mentor)

Magistrsko delo predstavi kakovost življenja odraslih z motnjami v duševnem razvoju, ki bivajo doma, in tistih, ki bivajo v instituciji. Kakovost življenja je analizirana z vidika oseb z motnjo v duševnem razvoju (v nadaljevanju MDR), ki se vsakodnevno aktivno vključujejo v varstveno-delovni center. Z raziskavo smo želeli ugotoviti, ali obstaja razlika v kakovosti življenja med obema skupinama in na katerih področjih bo ta razlika najbolj izstopala. V teoretičnem delu smo preučevali področja, ki vplivajo na kakovost življenja posameznika, in zakaj je kakovost življenja pomemben dejavnik v življenju. Izpostavili smo področje izobraževanja odraslih z motnjami v duševnem razvoju, kakor tudi možnosti zaposlitve in bivanja. V empiričnem delu smo izvedli kvantitativno analizo podatkov s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika zaprtega tipa. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih oseminpetdeset oseb, od tega osemindvajset uporabnikov, ki živijo v instituciji, in devetindvajset uporabnikov, ki živijo doma. Schalock (1997) je opredeli osem področij kakovosti življenja: dobro emocionalno počutje, medsebojni odnosi, materialna blaginja, osebnostni razvoj, dobro fizično počutje, samoodločanje, vključevanje v okolje in pravice. Vsa ta področja smo analizirali s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika, sestavljenega iz 24 vprašanj. Analiza rezultatov pri večini področij ni pokazala statistično pomembnih razlik v kakovosti življenja med skupino odraslih oseb z motnjami v duševnem razvoju, ki bivajo v instituciji, in tistimi, ki bivajo doma. Pomembna razlika se je pokazala le na področju socialne vključenosti. Osebe z MDR, ki živijo doma, se manj socialno vključujejo v okolje kot uporabniki, ki živijo v instituciji. Na osnovi dobljenih rezultatov smo pripravili smernice za večje vključevanje v okolje za osebe z MDR, ki živijo doma in se vsakodnevno vključujejo v aktivnosti varstveno-delovnega centra.

• Title: Quality of life of persons with intellectual disabilities from their viewpoint

Abstract

The master's thesis presents the quality of life of adults with intellectual disabilities who live at home and those who stay in institutions. The quality of life is analyzed from the point of view of persons with intellectual disabilities who are actively involved in an occupational activity centre on a daily basis. The research tried to establish whether there was a difference in the quality of life between the two groups and in which areas this difference was most pronounced. In the theoretical part, the areas that influence the quality of life of an individual are studied, as well as the reasons why the quality of life is an important factor in life. The field of adult education with intellectual disabilities was highlighted, as well as the possibilities of employment and living. In the empirical part, a quantitative analysis of data was carried out using a closed-type questionnaire. Fifty-eight people were included in the study, of whom twenty-eight people lived in the institution and twenty-nine people lived at home. The questionnaire consisted of twenty-four questions that covered the eight areas according to Schalock: emotional well-being, relationships, material well-being, personal development, physical well-being, self-determination, integration into the environment and rights. The analysis of results in most areas did not show statistically significant differences in the quality of life among the group of adults with intellectual disabilities living in the institution and those who live at home. An important difference was found only in the field of social inclusion. Persons with intellectual disabilities who live at home are less socially involved than those that live in an institution. On the basis of the obtained results, we prepared guidelines for greater social involvement of persons with intellectual disabilities who live at home and are involved in the activities of an occupational activity centre on a daily basis.
