Abstract

Social stigma against children with intellectual barriers is still a serious problem at various levels of society. Intellectual barriers are often seen as absolute weaknesses, leading to discrimination, social rejection, and limited access to education and an inclusive environment. This research aims to identify the forms of stigma that arise, the factors that influence them, and their impact on the psychosocial development of children and their families. The method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach. The results of the study show that stigma arises from a lack of understanding, cultural influences, and deeply rooted negative stereotypes. This stigma not only hinders children's growth and development, but also reduces parents' confidence in accompanying their children. Therefore, a comprehensive strategy is needed that includes public education, the implementation of inclusive policies, and the empowerment of families and schools in creating an environment that accepts and supports children with intellectual disabilities. Efforts to eliminate stigma are the first step towards a more just, inclusive, and humane society for children with intellectual barriers.

Abstract

Social stigma against children with intellectual disabilities is a serious issue that is still often encountered in various aspects of life, from education to social involvement. This stigma manifests in the form of social avoidance, negative labeling, discrimination, and violence, which have a significant impact on the growth and well-being of the child and their family. This article aims to analyze the various forms, causes, and consequences of social stigma faced by children with intellectual disabilities and to explore ways to reduce that stigma. This analysis was conducted using a literature review method that includes context, methodology, and theory. Data were obtained from scientific articles published between 2020 and 2025, accessed via Google Scholar; a total of 10 articles were analyzed. The findings of the analysis indicate that stigma remains a significant barrier for children with intellectual disabilities in obtaining their rights fairly, especially in the fields of education and social welfare. Nevertheless, approaches such as family and community support and the implementation of inclusive education have proven effective in reducing that stigma. Through collaborative efforts from various parties, an inclusive environment free from discrimination for children with intellectual disabilities can be realized.

Abstract

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membahas peran pendidikan multikultural dalam memberdayakan siswa berkebutuhan khusus di sekolah dasar. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi literatur dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis, yaitu dengan menganalisis berbagai sumber data dan publikasi yang relevan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pendidikan multikultural dapat menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang dapat menerima dan menghargai keberagaman peserta didik, termasuk mereka yang berkebutuhan khusus, sehingga mereka dapat mengakses pendidikan secara efektif. Artikel ini juga memaparkan strategi dan metode pendidikan multikultural yang dapat diintegrasikan ke dalam pendidikan dasar yang inklusif, serta peran penting dalam memberdayakan siswa berkebutuhan khusus untuk meningkatkan kemampuan sosial, komunikasi, dan belajar independen. Dengan demikian, pendekatan terpadu antara pendidikan multikultural dan pendidikan inklusif dapat menciptakan lingkungan pendidikan yang lebih adil, inklusif, dan beragam, serta membantu semua siswa untuk mendapatkan akses dan dukungan yang mereka butuhkan untuk mencapai potensinya secara menyeluruh.

Abstract

This study reviews previous literature to determine how multiple disabilities affect children. It also examines key components of support services and the education system. Children with various disabilities face complex developmental challenges in cognitive, communication, social, and emotional areas. This study identified four key impacts from 28 scientific articles (2020–2025) using a systematic literature review approach. These four impacts are as follows: “Psychological and Emotional”; “Social and Participation”; “Family and Support Systems,”; and “Education and Services.” The findings suggest that addressing multiple disabilities requires an integrated, personalized, and family-based intervention approach. Furthermore, addressing multiple disabilities requires policies that enable broad social participation and support tailored to children’s complex needs.

Abstract

This study aims to formulate an early intervention program based on family resources for parents to stimulate communication of MDVI children at home. This research was motivated by a lack of understanding of families in providing intervention efforts to optimize communication skills in children with MDVI from an early age. The subjects in this study were two parents who had MDVI children. The first subject was the family of a child with early AZs who had a visual impairment with autism. The second subject was the family of a child with an early K who had visual impairment and hearing loss.  This research approach is a qualitative approach with three stages of research, namely assessment, validation, and implementation. The result of this study is that parents know the characteristics and needs of their children, there is a positive acceptance from parents, and parents begin to know the communication principles of MDVI children and begin to practice them in a way that directly positively affects the  child's communication.

Abstract

Children with multiple disabilities experience more than one type of developmental impairment that interacts and affects their communication, learning, and social participation. However, they are often understood through a deficit-based perspective, which limits recognition of their experiences and potential. This study aims to examine the perspectives of children with multiple disabilities through a systematic review of previous research. A qualitative descriptive literature review was conducted by analyzing 20 relevant journal articles from both national and international sources. Data were examined using thematic analysis to identify common patterns and shifts in perspectives. The findings indicate a shift from a limitation-focused approach to a more humanistic, contextual understanding. Children with multiple disabilities are recognized as active individuals with unique ways of communicating and interacting with their environment, even in the absence of verbal language. Responsive and inclusive environments, particularly the roles of families and educators, are essential in supporting children’s development and quality of life.

Abstract

Children with multiple disabilities often experience communication difficulties due to a combination of sensory, physical, and cognitive barriers that affect their ability to interact socially. This article examines communication intervention models and strategies for children with multiple barriers through a literature review. The study was conducted on 20 scientific articles published over the last five years, obtained from various relevant sources. Then analyzed using content analysis. The results of the study show that effective communication interventions include direct communication approaches grounded in empathy, the development of intervention models through research and development (R&D) methods, and the use of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Social environmental support, the roles of teachers and families, and adapting interventions to the child's individual characteristics are important factors in successful communication. Therefore, communication interventions need to be designed adaptively and holistically to support communication development and quality of life for children with multiple barriers.
