Teachers' ratings of teachability and behavior for 38 learning disabled children in Grades 3 to 6 were compared with ratings for 38 nondisabled children. Only two correlations between behavior and teachability for the disabled group and six for the nondisabled group were significant. Analysis of covariance indicated that the disabled children received less positive teachability ratings on school-appropriate behavior. Also the disabled group was rated less positively on three overt problem behaviors, acting out, distractibility, and immaturity. Research and educational implications were discussed
