The Accuracy of Academic Self-Evaluations in Adolescents with Learning Disabilities.
Stone, C. Addison; May, Alison L.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v35 n4 p370-83 Jul-Aug 2002
High school students with (n=52) and without (n=49) learning disabilities (LD) completed a self-concept scale and survey rating their own academic skills. Despite reporting significantly lower academic self-concepts, students with LD overestimated their academic skills relative to the ratings of others and to their actual test performance.
