Peer reviewedRyckman, David B. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 1981
Sex differences between 27 learning disabled (LD) girls and 75 LD boys (all elementary school age) were examined on psychological, academic, and cognitive style measures. LD girls were found to be verbally inferior, less capable of abstract thinking, more field dependent, and more impulsive than the boys. (Author/SBH)
