Self-Concept and Attributions of the Learning Disabled.

Bryan, Tanis H.

Learning Disabilities Focus, v1 n2 p82-89 Spr 1986

Studies of learning disabled students' self concept and attributions suggest that the passive learning style may reflect their beliefs that they are not in control of their destinies. The paper reviews strategies to help LD children acquire more adaptive notions about the causes of their successes and failures. (Author/CL)
