Models for diagnosis and treatment of learning disorders have changed over time.  Still, there are many old beliefs and myths that may lead parents and schools in the wrong direction when working with children with learning disorders.  Today, John and Ryan talk with Robin Peterson, Ph.D., ABPP-CN, about learning disorders, issues around diagnosing disorders of written expression, the concept of academic g and its relationship to Spearman’s g, risk factors for learning disorders, common comorbidities of learning disorders, the resource allocation hypothesis, and achievement gaps across groups.
