As individuals with special needs take more roles in social life and become more visible, the importance of social acceptance of individuals with special needs has increased.Especially being accepted by their peers with normal development and developing as a part of the society will reduce the burden of care in the society and enable children with special needs to lead a life worthy of human dignity.With this study, it is aimed to support children with normal development to form positive attitudes with awareness training. Qualitative and quantitative data will be used together and the attitude before and after the training will be examined descriptively.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Attitudes of normally developing children towards special children may be hurtful and affect their development negatively. For this reason, by conducting an educational process in which they can develop positive attitudes, social acceptance of children with special needs can be increased, their development and psychosocial support systems can be established. Within the scope of the advocacy and health promotion role of paediatric nursing, it has the responsibility to create an environment that supports the development of children with special needs and to carry out social awareness studies. In this context, children in the school period, where attitudes, behaviour patterns and habits begin to take shape, should be supported in developing positive attitudes.In this planned study, an eight-week training process will be carried out. It is planned to reveal more comprehensive results by using qualitative and quantitative data collection methods together in the evaluation of attitude changes before and after the training.
