Abstract
This review details the lack of information available concerning personality and behavioral development of adolescents with learning disabilities (LD). Research on self-concept, locus of control, temperament, problem behavior, and social status in this population is reviewed in an effort to note the consistency of indicators concerning secondary emotional and social problems. The discussion highlights conflicting results as well as methodological pitfalls. Future research directions with this population are suggested, including groups comparison studies, developmental research, research on LD subtypes, and research treatments resulting from these suggested personality and behavioral deficits.
