The purpose of the study was to identify the core coping strategies of students with learning disabilities. The authors interviewed 20 Israeli high school students with learning disabilities over a three-year period. Four emotional-cognitive strategies were identified: 'Avoidance,' 'Rebellion,' 'Reconciliation,' and 'Determination.' The results provide a map within which school counselors and teachers may place their students' current functioning, and help students progress toward coping strategies effective for attaining emotional and academic success.
