Wage Differentials between College Graduates with and without LD.
Dickinson, David L.; Verbeek, Roelant L.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v35 n2 p175-84 Mar-Apr 2002
This study compared employment and wage figures for 97 college graduates previously diagnosed with learning disabilities (LD) and 1,130 comparison adults. The observed lower wages for individuals with LD were found to be primarily due to differences in productivity, although the possibility that some of this differential is due to discrimination cannot be ruled out.
