Mental Flexibility and Planning Skills in Children and Adolescents with Learning Disabilities.

Snow, Jeffrey H.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v25 n4 p265-70 Apr 1992

Assessment of 60 children (ages 9-15) with learning disabilities resulted in a group with relatively intact visual planning and mental flexibility skills and a group clearly dysfunctional in these areas. Comparison of the two subtypes on measures of academic skills, visual memory, visual-motor integration, and motor speed indicated significant subtype differences. (Author/JDD)
