This study described the perceptions of learning disabled (LD) students with regard to the factors that lead to their current success in college. The 5 participants ages 19 to 34, are enrolled as full-time students at a public university in Pennsylvania. The study analyzed the responses of the students to an open-ended survey and a semi-structured interview. Additionally, a parent (or spouse) of each participant completed a survey and was interviewed. The student's confidential file was examined for documentation regarding their learning disability and support services. The study was guided by 4 research questions that examined the critical home experiences, school experiences, student's self-knowledge and current actions, and views regarding critical school initiatives. The results indicated that the 5 participants recognized the importance of learning to self-advocate by explaining their disability and requesting support from their professors. The students also acknowledged the value of the supports available through the Office of Services for Students with Disabilities. The Director and staff of the university provided direct training in self-knowledge and self-awareness along with making available tutors, alternate testing sites, and academic coaches. Also deemed effective were the high school supports such as challenging curriculum, classmates who were academically-oriented, participation in the development of the I.E.P. and attendance in the meetings, and supportive teachers who provided encouragement and risk-taking opportunities. Valuable home experiences included: communication and positive encouragement from family, opportunities for participation in extra-curricular activities, and community service activities. The results also suggested a number of initiatives for schools to implement in order to improve student transitions to postsecondary education.

"Once students graduate from high school and enter postsecondary education the academic support services change. This study uses a qualitative methodology to investigate the perceptions of students' with specific learning disabilities (SLD), particularly the students' perceptions of student motivation, success, and psychosocial factors such as self-efficacy, self-advocacy, and the stigmas related to having an SLD in an effort to identify the factors that impact success in college students who have specific learning disabilities. The researcher will interview students with a SLD regarding the length of time their disability has been identified, the accommodations previously accessed in the secondary educational setting compared to current college accommodations, student motivation, success, current student support systems skills, other psychosocial factors, and any barriers that students may perceive they face."--Leaf 3.

Project Report from the year 2009 in the subject Pedagogy - Common Didactics, Educational Objectives, Methods, Vanier College, course: Research Methods, language: English, abstract: This pilot study consists of research about academic achievement and LD students. Our research project was initially to contribute to empirical data analysis on the question of how learning disabilities affect a College student's academic achievement and social life. However, due to certain practical issues, there was a shift in our research question. The purpose of our study is to determine the factors that hinder LD students in their academic achievement and social life and to propose solutions that help LD students academically and socially. We hypothesized that learning disabilities could negatively affect academic achievement and social life in College regardless of gender or cultural background and that there exist factors that hinder them in their academic achievement and social life. After interviewing a convenient sample of four different students who share similar learning disabilities, we found out that three out of four LD students require extra time to study and understand. They achieve well in school. Their heavy course workload and the teaching methods used hinder them in their learning process. However, the learning centre and other academic services help LD students to improve their academic performance. Some interviewees claimed that being more outgoing and open-minded with their learning disabilities help them in their long-term social relationships.
