Abstract
So often in discussing the etiology of one learning disability over another, we tend to group their academic purposes by the overall gross symptomology. This is especially true with regard to language and perceptual disabilities. However, more and more evidence is going into the clinical literature that clearly indicates that a learning disability may have a multi-dimensional etiology---rather like a colored mosaic wherein the primary colors remain the same but each child's learning problem is put together with subtly different patterns and color shadings. As the author states “children with learning disability do, indeed, represent a heterogeneous population.”---C.C.E.Keywords
