Parental Attitudes toward Communication Disorders in Children Aged 3-7: Types, Predictive Indicators and Support Models

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the results from the application of an original psychological instrument designed to assess parental attitudes toward communication disorders in children aged 3–7 years. The instrument is based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and enables simultaneous evaluation of the cognitive, affective, and behavioral components of parental attitudes, as well as subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and intention to act. The analysis identifies two main types of parental attitudes—positive and negative—which differ in the structure of beliefs, emotional reactions, and behavioral predictors. Based on these findings, key indicators with high predictive value are defined, allowing rapid classification of parental attitudes through a dichotomous (YES/NO) scale. The article also proposes a methodological algorithm for working with families according to the type of attitude, including strategies for strengthening positive attitudes, transforming negative attitudes, and applying universal principles for effective specialist–parent collaboration. The results have direct implications for speech-language and psychological practice by supporting more precise intervention planning and prevention of therapy dropout.
