Abstract

Parents’ attitudes are an important prerequisite for successful realization of inclusive processes. This paper presents results of attitudes of 236 parents (22 parents of students with special needs and 214 parents of regular students), according to educational inclusion. The study was carried out in twelve schools in the area of Zenica, two schools in the Municipality of Kakanj and one school in the Municipality of Maglaj. For the purposes of the study, “the inventory of parents’ attitudes to integration of children with developmental disorder in public schools (Mešalić i Ibralić, 2004) was used. The questionnaire on inclusion of students with special needs into regular schools was used to examine teachers (Mešalić, Š., Halilović Z., 2006). The questionnaire, in addition to basic information about respondents, included 30 indicators of attitudes (I agree, Not sure, I disagree). Some of the statements were given in inverted sentence forms, and different attitudes of respondents were evaluated with a test. The results showed that most of respondents 165 (69, 9%) had a positive attitude. Also, there was a significant difference in attitudes of parents of children with special needs and parents of children without special needs in regards to inclusion. Keywords: inclusion, assumptions, parents’ attitudes
