Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the vestibular dysfunction hypothesis in learning disabilities. The data indicated that there was no significant difference in vestibular function between normal and learning-disabled children; that there was no significant correlation between vestibular function and academic achievement; and that there was no significant educational relevance in categorizing learning-disabled children according to vestibular dimensions.Keywords
