Cognitive-Motivational Characteristics and Academic Achievement of Learning Disabled Children: A Longitudinal Study.
Chapman, James W.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v80 n3 p357-65 Sep 1988

It appears that negative school-related attitudes develop early in LD children and remain consistent through high school. (TJH)
