This paper presents an alternative approach to research in learning disabilities among adolescents and young adults. The author proposes that low achieving adolescents labeled "learning disabled" should play a role in research efforts in which they are involved. While much research focuses on educational interventions following basic research formats, research described in this paper would focus on psychosocial concerns within a larqely natural or nonartifical
context. In addition, the contribution which the LD adolescent can make to the design and implementation of their own treatment program is stressed.
