dc.description.abstractThis study explored the learning-disabled and the normal achieving students’ causal attributions of their performance outcomes and the teachers’ perception of these students’ level of learned helplessness. Twelve teachers (JSS 3 subject teachers) and forty-two students formed the subjects of this study. Analysis of variance was used in testing the five null hypotheses stated in the study. All the five null hypotheses were rejected because there were statistically significant difference among the groups compared. Teachers perceived their normal-achieving students as being less prone to learned helplessness than the learning – disabled students. The learning-disabled students’ ability attribution were less than those of the normal-achieving students. Test completion was found to arouse feelings of happiness for both the learning-disabled and the normal-achieving students and it was also found that the normal-achieving students were more persistent in learning tasks than the learning-disabled. Some implications for counselling are that there is need for effective school counselling to specially attend to the learning-disabled students and pay particular attention to their problems.en_US
