Learning disabilities in juvenile offenders

Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North America
Elena L Grigorenko

Abstract

The article briefly reviews the literature on the association between learning disabilities and conduct problems across correctional communities and clinical settings. It first reviews the literature on the prevalence of learning deficiencies among criminal offenders. It then discusses a number of relevant points from studies of the association between low academic achievement and conduct problems in nonincarcerated population samples. Third, it discusses studies of postrelease academic profiles of juvenile offenders. The article closes with a comment on possible future directions of the research linking reduced levels of academic achievement and delinquency.
