• This investigation attempted to determine whether or not the gap in social perceptual ability between learning disabled and non-learning-disabled groups would decrease with age. The Profile of Nonverbal Sensitivity and The Four Factor Tests of Social Intelligence were administered to 30 students with learning disabilities and 30 students without learning disabilities. The ages of the students were 11, 14, and 17 years. Although social perceptual ability was found to improve with age for both groups, the proportionate differences between the groups remained constant through age 17.
