Introdução: Muitos estudos se têm dedicado ao tema dislexia, nomeadamente, papel dos educadores de infância e professores, teorias etiológicas, neuroimagem, influência de fatores genéticos e ambientais. No entanto, pouco se sabe sobre os conhecimentos dos pais. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar os conhecimentos dos pais de crianças com idades compreendidas entre os 4 e os 8 anos de idade, no que diz respeito à dislexia e seus sinais de alerta.
Material e Métodos: Elaborou-se um questionário de avaliação de conhecimentos sobre dislexia, que foi aplicado a 116 pais, entre os dias 15 de setembro e 3 de outubro de 2014, em dois colégios. Após entrega do questionário preenchido, foi distribuído um folheto informativo a cada participante.
Resultados: Apesar de a avaliação global dos questionários ter sido positiva, 26,7% dos pais ainda acredita que a dislexia é provocada por défice visual, 23,3% pensa ser por défice auditivo, 37,1% acredita que se deve a défice de atenção e 56% pensa que o problema reside na falta de interesse pela leitura. Conclusão: Mesmo existindo nota global positiva entre os questionários recolhidos, concluiu-se que os pais que participaram neste estudo têm ainda alguns conhecimentos errados sobre dislexia, que podem até ter impacto negativo na vida da criança.
Background: Many studies have investigated the subject dyslexia, in particular, the role of early childhood educators and teachers, etiological theories, neuroimaging, influence of genetic and environmental factors. However, little is known about what parents know about it. This work aims to evaluate the knowledge of parents of children aged 4 to 8 years old, with regard to dyslexia and its warning signs. Material and Methods: It was developed a questionnaire for knowledge assessment, about dyslexia, which was applied to 116 parents, between September 15 and October 3, 2014, in two colleges. After delivery of the completed questionnaire, an information leaflet was distributed to each participant. Results: Although the overall assessment of questionnaires have been positive, 26,7% of parents still believe that dyslexia is caused by visual deficit, 23,3% thought to be a hearing impairment, 37,1% believe that is due to deficit attention and 56% think that the problem is the lack of interest in reading. Conclusion: There was a positive overall mark between the collected questionnaires. However, it was concluded that parents who participated in this study still have wrong knowledge about dyslexia, what may have a negative impact on child's life.
