In addition, LD pupils were as well known as their matched peers and rated fellow LD students in the same classes higher than did NH raters.…

Perlmutter, Barry F.; And Others – Learning Disability Quarterly, 1983
Analysis of sociometric ratings for 162 mainstreamed tenth graders revealed that, while learning disabled (LD) Ss were generally less well liked than their peers, a subgroup of the disabled sample was very well regarded. Most of the remaining LD Ss were rated in the neutral rather than the disliked range. (Author/CL)

The correlates of classroom behavior problems for groups of 40 mainstreamed learning disabled (LD) and 40 non-LD students (grades 3-6) were identified from among various personality indicators. One personality variable--reactivity--predicted total problem behavior for the LD group, although reactivity and social flexibility predicted variance in…

Findings indicated LD students demonstrated less desirable adaptive behavior,…
