Children and adolescents with learning and behavioral difficulties resulting from head injuries share some common problems with individuals with learning disabilities. A review of the literature regarding the effects of head injury in children reveals important developmental considerations in terms of both outcome and treatment. This article reviews these issues and focuses on appropriate assessment practices with individuals who have acquired brain injury and who may have many difficulties in learning that are similar to those of the learning disabled child.
