Specific Reading Impairments--Are They to Be Associated with Emotional Difficulties?

Lamm, Oren; Epstein, Rachel

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v25 n9 p605-15 Nov 1992

This study of the emotional status of 133 Israeli adolescents and young adults found no significant differences between subjects with dyslexia and controls. Both groups were easily differentiated from psychiatric patients. Subjects with severe deficits in ability to remember details of a text, and with concentration difficulties, exhibited high levels of anxiety. (Author/JDD)
