Bender, William N.; Rosenkrans, Cecilia B.; Crane, Mary-Kay
Learning Disability Quarterly, v22 n2 p143-56 Spr 1999
Research is reviewed on stress, depression, and suicide among adolescents with learning disabilities from the risk resilience perspective.

Some evidence also exists to support an increased risk of suicide among this population. (Author/CR)
