Abstract:
This ethnographic project used participant-observation and Life History Interviews to gather data on U.S. undergraduate students with learning disabilities (LD), including dyslexia and attention deficit disorders (ADD). The project focuses on issues concerning the political economy, personal and collective agency, social labeling theory, and medicalization. I argue that performance theory must be integrated with social labeling theory in order to provide a full consideration of context and agency. Information on prevalence and demographics, and on historical context is provided. This includes

Abstract:
Hypotheses were proposed suggesting that learning disabilities predispose individuals toward anxiety and that special education intervention moderates the manifestation of anxiety.

Predictor variables included Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R; Wechsler, 1974) Full Scale Intelligence Quotient (IQ), absolute WISC-R Verbal-Performance IQ diff

Abstract:
Within the last decade, reports have indicated that the number of students classified as learning disabled (LD) has increased by 119%.

Research in both special and regular education has pointed directly or indirectly to curriculum-based assessment (CBA) and collaboration between the two systems as effective alternatives for assisting students with learning problems.

Abstract:
One of the U.S. Army's requirements for reenlistment of first term soldiers is a minimum score on the General Technical composite of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery of one hundred. The score is a measure of academic ability. The primary goal of the Basic Skills Education Program is to assist the soldier in gaining basic skills, with a secondary goal of enabling him or her to retest at a sufficient level to become eligible for reenlistment. While most soldiers are able to meet this goal, a few are unable to achieve an acceptable score on the retest. It was hypothesized that some

Abstract:
The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 requires that employers provide "reasonable accommodations" for qualified individuals who have a disability, provided that doing so does not result in "undue hardship". There are several guidelines that employers have been given to evaluate the reasonableness of job accommodations. Unfortunately, these guidelines have been criticized as being vague and ambiguous. Specific factors considered when determining whether or not to grant an accommodation under the ADA have yet to be examined in psychological research. The current study evaluated the i

A causal-comparative analysis was conducted among 11 large, high research public universities.
