Abstract:

Many children have difficulties learning mathematics, and the consequences of poor mathematical skills are very far reaching. Studies examining the reasons why children struggle to learn mathematics are scarce, particularly in comparison to studies examining reading difficulties. The studies reported in this thesis attempted to provide insights into the cognitive limitations that may lead some children to have difficulties learning mathematics, re-examining some of the cognitive deficits already thought to be associated with mathematical difficulties, as well as providing the starting point fo

Section A is a review of the literature on cognitive functioning difficulties in psychosis. It focuses on these difficulties as they relate to cognitive models of psychosis. After outlining relevant cognitive models, the literature on cognitive functioning is critically reviewed. The review highlights methodological limitations; gaps in our understanding; and a need for research exploring people's experiences of cognitive functioning difficulties. Section B describes a qualitative study investigating the experience of cognitive difficulties in people with psychosis. Background: An overview of

This thesis focuses upon the abilities of children with severe learning difficulties to contemplate the psychological states of other people, what is often referred to in the literature as 'mindreading' (Whiten and Perner, 1991). The first section contains a review of the literature on children's developing understanding of the mind and their conceptual representational abilities. This is followed by two studies investigating non-learning disabled children's abilities to attribute first-and second-order false belief.

Previous research (eg Barrouillet & Lepine, 2005; Cummings and Elkins, 1999) suggests that children with mathematical difficulties (MD) use inefficient problem solving strategies and lack computational fluency. This thesis extends existing research by investigating the cognitive and affective dimensions of mathematical difficulties in schoolchildren using a variety of methodological approaches. The principal aim is to identify the characteristics of children with MD and compare them with children of average ability, to identify the factors relevant to the learning of mathematics.

Teachers and parents typically express concern regarding difficulty with participation during school occupations. In particular, teachers and parents describe the cognitive aspects of participation as being a challenge. While much research has focused on the concept of participation for students with physical disabilities, little is known about the impact of cognitive dimensions of a learning difficulty on school participation.

Abstract:

This study examined the impact of a social-cognitive teaching strategy, the community of inquiry, on the functioning of six Year 4 students with learning difficulties. Results indicated that the students became more self-regulated in their learning and developed greater academic self-efficacy and stronger reading comprehension skills. Although the degree of development varied across the group, the results indicated that all six students (in addition to their class peers) benefited from actively engaging in scaffolded opportunities for intellectual and social exchange in a whole class setting.

This thesis uses a multidisciplinary approach to examine attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the context of development and co-occurring impairments. The first part of the thesis focuses on the co-occurrence between ADHD and reading difficulties, investigating underlying cognitive impairments and their possible shared aetiology. We show, in a clinically ascertained sample, that the shared familial influences on ADHD and reading difficulties are largely independent of familial influences shared with IQ. Using a population-based twin sample, we further show that a significant prop
