The study analyzed the internalizing and externalizing problems in a group of students with learning disabilities (LD) taking into account their school adjustment. Furthermore, teachers/parents agreement on students' problems was investigated as well. Participants were parents and teachers of 28 students (F=20) aged 7 to 17 years old (M=11.36; DS=2.97). Parents evaluated students’ functioning with the Child Behavior CheckList 6-18 (CBCL 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001), while teachers with the Teacher Report Form 6-18 (TRF 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001). School adjustment was a protective factor for internalizing (β=-.526, p<.01) and externalizing (β=-.510, p<.05) problems. Moreover, parents and teachers reached a better agreement when considering externalizing problems (.029<k<.274) than internalizing ones (.222<k<.455). Implications about wellbeing promotion of students with LD are discussed.
Lo studio analizza la presenza di problemi internalizzanti ed esternalizzanti in studenti con disturbi specifici dell'apprendimento (DSA) in relazione alle loro capacità di adattamento. Sono, inoltre, analizzati i livelli di accordo tra genitori e insegnanti nella valutazione di questi problemi. Hanno partecipato genitori e insegnanti di 28 studenti (F=20) tra i 7 e i 17 anni (M=11.36; DS=2.97). I genitori hanno valutato il funzionamento degli studenti coinvolti attraverso la Child Behavior Check List 6-18 (CBCL 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001), gli insegnanti con il Teacher Report Form 6-18 (TRF 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001). L’adattamento scolastico risulta avere un ruolo protettivo per i problemi internalizzanti (β=-.526, p<.01) ed esternalizzanti (β=-.510, p<.05). Inoltre, genitori e insegnanti sono più concordi nell’individuare problemi esternalizzanti (.029<k<.274) che internalizzanti (.222<k<.455). Si discutono le implicazioni per la promozione del benessere a scuola degli studenti con DSA.

Abstract
The study analyzed the internalizing and externalizing problems in a group of students with learning disabilities (LD) taking into account their school adjustment. Furthermore, teachers/parents agreement on students' problems was investigated as well. Participants were parents and teachers of 28 students (F=20) aged 7 to 17 years old (M=11.36; DS=2.97). Parents evaluated students’ functioning with the Child Behavior CheckList 6-18 (CBCL 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001), while teachers with the Teacher Report Form 6-18 (TRF 6-18, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001). School adjustment was a protective factor for internalizing (β=-.526, p<.01) and externalizing (β=-.510, p<.05) problems. Moreover, parents and teachers reached a better agreement when considering externalizing problems (.029I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
