Ryckman, David B.; Peckham, Percy D. – Learning Disabilities Research, 1986
The Survey of Achievement Responsibility was used to compare causal attribution patterns of 376 learning disabled (LD) boys and 177 LD girls (grades 4-11). Girls had higher effort and luck attributions in academic success situations than did boys and higher ability attributions for academic failure situations. (Author/JW)
