Enhancing Self-Understanding and Social Integration of Middle School Students With Learning Disabilities
Study Overview
Detailed Description
Objectives
- Deliver an ecologically informed school-based intervention that addresses individual, social and environmental factors, to improve the adjustment of students with LD
- Examine the efficacy of the intervention
- Contribute to knowledge of the factors that influence the adjustment of students with LD
- Circulate this information to those who live and work with students with LD in order to offer understanding and direction for programs and interventions and to facilitate cross-sector collaboration
The research will utilize both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. 6 schools will be selected. 3 will receive the intervention in year 1 (2004-2005 school year), comprising 1) group treatment, 2) workshops, and 3) consultation. The other 3 schools will be controls in year 1 and receive the intervention in year 2 (2005-2006 school year).
Students in grades 6-8, identified as having LD will be offered the opportunity to participate in the project (with parental consent). This project comprises 3 components:
- School-based group treatment for students in grades 6-8 with LD and psychosocial problems. Group treatment will focus on assisting participants to understand the impact of their LD as well as on development of self-advocacy skills.
- Workshops on understanding LD for teachers, parents, and students without LD (grades 6-8).
