Sociometric Status and After-School Social Activity of Children with Learning Disabilities.

Ackerman, David; Howes, Carollee

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v19 n7 p416-19 Aug-Sep 1986

Sociometric and activity questionnaires were administered using a sample of 28 learning disabled (LD) boys (ages 6-13) enrolled in private school. Results suggested that the LD population is sociometrically heterogeneous. Popularity was found to be significantly related to informal get-togethers with friends, but not to levels of participation in after-school programs. (JW)
