Learning disabilities is a subject that is usually associated with
school-aged children where the research and intervention strategies
are well known. Much less research has been done for assessing and
diagnosing older adolescents and adults in this area. This work is
an effort to provide a comprehensive review of what we know about
certain of these disorders, specifically: language-based learning
disorders; nonverbal learning disorders; high-functioning autism;
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; and mathematics disorders
and how they manifest themselves in the later years of development
and maturity. A chapter addresses each one of these disorders of
learning. Included in each chapter is a discussion of historical
perspectives, definitions and diagnostic criteria, incidence and
prevalence data, comorbidity studies, pertinent research from all
relevant fields of study, reasonable accommodations in academia as
well as the workplace, and outcome data. This much-needed review
will be of interest to clinicians in neuropsychology, educational
psychology, and psychopharmacology.
