  • Title: The learning disorders of adolescence: organic and nonorganic failure to strive.
    Author: Levine MD, Zallen BG.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 1984 Apr; 31(2):345-69. PubMed ID: 6728521.
    Abstract:
    As students proceed through late elementary and junior high school, academic demands change drastically. The altered requirements may give rise to seemingly new learning disorders or may aggravate or modify a preexisting recognized dysfunction. This article discusses common areas of disability in this age group, developmental complications, and academic performance delays, and presents guidelines for assessment and management.
