Self-Concept and Success-Failure Attributions of Nonhandicapped Students and Students with Learning Disabilities.
Cooley, Eric J.; Ayres, Robert R.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v21 n3 p174-78 Mar 1988
Self-concept and attributions made about academic successes and failures were compared in 46 students with learning disabilities and 47 normally achieving students (mean age 12 years). Attributions regarding internal versus external causes for successes and failures and stable (ability) versus unstable (effort) causes for failures did not differentiate the groups. (Author/DB)
