An Examination of Psychosocial Aspects of Learning Disabled Adolescents

Abstract

Psychosocial disorders is an area of major concern to practitioners and researchers who work with learning disabled adolescents. The question of whether the behaviors manifested by the secondary learning disabled student are the result of academic failure or frustration still remains undetermined. However, in her comprehensive review of the literature related to this area, Kronick cites support for the position that learning disabled adolescents evidence psychosocial deficits independent of academic failure and frustration. A specification of the salient characteristics of the population is a prerequisite to determining appropriate intervention procedures. The information presented in this article contributes to that prerequisite step for psychosocial programming.
