Pengetahuan Terhadap Disleksia dalam Kalangan Ibu Bapa di sebuah Sekolah Rendah

Nowadays, an increasing number of children are experiencing difficulties with basic literacy, particularly dyslexia. Since dyslexic children have about the same intelligence as most average children, many parents are unaware of their child's dyslexia problem. In this study, descriptive statistical analysis was used to interpret the data in order to determine and describe the quantitatively formed data. The results of the analysis are presented in the form of frequency, percentage, mean score, and standard deviation. The determination of the mean score level in this analysis is linked to the key goal of parental dyslexia awareness. The study's results revealed that the mean was 1.12, and 37.2 percent of respondents had a poor understanding of dyslexia. This is because parents did not receive adequate knowledge about dyslexia and its indications. In conclusion, the results indicate that parents' knowledge of dyslexia is a major issue that can be taken into account so that dyslexia can be prevented in children and children can develop their learning skills because children with specific learning disabilities are unable to pay attention for a long time. The level of awareness among parents can be enhanced by early diagnosis of dyslexia as well as parental interest for spending time with their children while they learning.
