Learning Disability Defined

A deficit in a specific area, such as word decoding or arithmetic computation, which is out of line with overall intellectual ability. Some learning disabilities may interfere with proper measurement on conventional IQ tests, so a learning disabled student might be considered gifted with an IQ test score significantly lower than the usual 130 cut-off.

This definition is in context to Gifted Education. See more contextual defintions for Learning Disability.
