Depression and Anxiety in Children and Adolescents with Learning Disabilities, Conduct Disorders, and No Disabilities.

Newcomer, Phyllis L.; And Others

Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, v3 n1 p27-39 Jan 1995

Students (n=87) with conduct disorders revealed higher self-ratings and teacher ratings in depression and anxiety than students with learning disabilities (LD) or no disabilities. LD students (n=85) did not self-rate as more depressed and anxious than nondisabled children but received higher depression ratings from teachers. Gender, age, and regular/special education teacher ratings were examined. (JDD)
