Objective The objective of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of the personality characteristics exhibited by parents of stuttering and nonstuttering children, utilizing the five major personality dimensions (neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and conscientiousness).
Methods: This investigation was executed through a descriptive causal-comparative method. A total of 54 participants were selected as the sample, comprising 27 individuals from the cohort of parents with children who stutter and 27 individuals from the cohort of parents with children who do not stutter. The requisite data were gathered employing the NEO Five-Factor Inventory questionnaire. The hypotheses posited in this investigation were evaluated utilizing multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and the SPSS26 statistical software package.
Results: The results indicated a statistically significant disparity between parents of stuttering and nonstuttering children across the five major NEO personality factors (p<0.01). Based on the mean differences observed between the two groups, it can be asserted that the personality traits of neuroticism and openness to experience were more pronounced among parents of stuttering children. Conversely, the scores of extraversion, conscientiousness, and agreeableness were found to be higher in parents of nonstuttering children (p<0.01).
Conclusions: The implications of these findings may prove beneficial in providing guidance to parents of children who stutter and in the formulation of effective interventions aimed at enhancing their mental well-being.
