Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the attitudes of audiologists and hearing parents severely impaired children on the application of different ways of carrying out the diagnostic procedures. It was assumed that the attitudes of audiologists and parents of children with impaired hearing on the current - the classical method of performing diagnostic procedures unfavorable and that they need to be modernized with new information and communication technologies. The sample consisted of 90 subjects, divided into two subsample (45 audiologists and 45 parents). To estimate the attitudes applied questionnaire, specifically designed and tested for this study. Measuring response to claims made according to the Likert scale. For the processing of survey data were used descriptive analysis, one-way ANOVA and canonical discriminative analysis. By analyzing the data showed that there were unfavorable attitudes towards implementation of diagnostic procedures in the traditional manner and the need for their modernization of information and communication technologies. Also, it was found that there is a statistically significant difference in the attitudes of audiologists and parents towards the implementation of diagnostic procedures. The reasons for these results, visible on the basis of the coefficient of canonical discriminant function, can be traced to an insufficient level of knowledge of parents, low self-criticism audiologists to performing tasks, possibly their lack of expertise, as well as other latent causes.
