Description The present investigation was conducted to asses the learning disability among children. A
comparative analysis was done to know the differences between rural and urban children of 8-10 years
age group. Haryana state was selected purposively while Fatehabad district was also selected
purposively. From Fatehabad district Bhattu Block was selected randomly, city area was purposively
taken for urban sample while villages Kirdhan, Dhand, Banawali, Shankpur Daroli and bhattu village
was randomly selected. A sample of 60 children, 30 from rural and 30 from urban, schools was taken.
Independent variables considered were Microsystem, Mesosystem, Exosystem, Macrosystem and
Chronosystem. Learning disability among children was taken as dependent variable.
In the process of assessment of learning disability, Binet intelligence Scale by Kulshershtha (1971) was
used. A questionnaire was developed and used to gather the data for human ecological factors of
respondents.
The findings portrayed that most of the respondents belonged to nuclear and small sized families.
Parents of most of the respondents were educated upto high school. The neighbourhood status of the
most of the respondents was middle class their relationship with their neighbours was not good. Most
of the parents adopted permissive disciplining technique for their children.
The variables of human ecological environment exerted an influence on the learning disability among
children. Although several factors did not come out to be associated with learning disability among
children, but, as the human ecological system work as interconnected networks so all the factors can be
said to be directly and indirectly associated with all components of learning disability among children.
most of the respondents were in below average category in language and mathematics components both
in rural and urban area but above average category in creativity.
No significant ‘t’ values were found between rural and urban children for language,
mathematics and creativity which are the components of learning disability. Thus it can be concluded
that cultural settings i.e. rural and urban do not have any impact on learning disability.
