The academic performance of 1.480 behaviorally disordered and learning disabled children attending grades 1-3 was compared. Results indicated that differences in academic performance between behaviorally disordered and learning disabled students were trivial. In addition, supplementary analyses indicated that the two groups did not differ with respect to factor structure of achievement test performance, nor did they differ with respect to reading/math correlations. Implications with respect to cross-categorical education are discussed.
