Abstract
The major purpose of the Minnesota institute was to study the assessment of LD children. Included in the scope of the research were investigations of the characteristics of children referred for psychoeducational evaluation, characteristics of those found eligible for placement in special education, methods of planning instructional interventions, evaluations of the extent to which children profited from instruction, and evaluations of the effectiveness of specific instructional programs.Keywords
