B. C. Journal of Special Education, v14 n1 p73-89 1990

The paper reviews the literature on teachers' perceptions of sexual differences among learning-disabled students. It was concluded that perceived sex differences tend to compound the problems of learning-disabled students with boys rated substantially higher on conduct and behavior problems and girls as more withdrawn.
