Valas, Harald
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v45 n2 p101-14 Jun 2001
Data for 1,833 Norwegian students in grades 4, 7, and 9 show that learning disabled (LD) (n=214) and low achieving (not diagnosed as LD; n=156) attributed success in mathematics and language to ability to a greater extent than other students. LD students showed more helplessness than other low achieving students, although these students showed more helplessness than the majority of students. (SLD)
