A Longitudinal Study of Students with Learning Disabilities in Mainstream and Resource Programs.

Osborne, Susan S.; And Others

Exceptionality: A Research Journal, v2 n2 p81-95 1991

Cognitive, academic, and behavioral characteristics of 42 children with learning disabilities were assessed from identification at age 6-7 to the age of 11.5. At endpoint, resource students showed a drop in verbal intelligence quotient and lower achievement compared to mainstreamed students, though there were no differences at the time of identification.
