The self-perception of adolescents with learning difficultiesClaassens, Talita 30 November 2007 (has links)
Although previous research has been done on adolescents with learning
difficulties or barriers to learning such as dyslexia and ADHD, no
research has been done in South Africa on their self-perceptions of these
difficulties. A phenomenological study was conducted through means of
semi-structured, individual, face-to-face interviews. Self-perceptions
that adolescents with dyslexia and ADHD form were explored. Selfperceptions
are formed through comparisons with other learners and
friends. Self-perceptions were left as an open-term in order to
investigate the adolescents' own idiosyncratic interpretations of
dyslexia and ADHD. From the interviews themes could be identified
concerning their understanding of dyslexia and ADHD, feelings and
cognitions associated with dyslexia and ADHD, the importance that
significant others such as educators, parents and friends play, as well as
the adolescents' way of coping with dyslexia and ADHD. Selfperceptions
were both negative and positive and found to be influenced
by factors such as age, type of support systems and sufficient coping
strategies. / Educational Studies / M.Ed. (Guidance and Counseling)
