Abstract
This paper examines the relationship between epidemiological and intervention research with learning disabled adolescents. Several historical trends and contemporary issues (e.g., the importance of prevention as opposed to treatment efforts, applied vs. basic research, continuing questions related to definition and identification, and the heterogeneity of the population) which effect research in learning disabilities are discussed. With this background, Dr. Altman
advocates the simultaneous and interactive pursuit of epidemiology and intervention research.
