“…In this study, adolescents with SpLD who had comorbid ADHD had been excluded as these conditions themselves can influence their recollections of their schooling years. The results of this study revealed that 12 (40%) adolescents had 'overall' neutral recollections, 9 (30%) had 'overall' positive recollections, and 9 (30%) had 'overall' negative recollections about having SpLD during their schooling (Karande et al 2009b). Fourteen (47%) adolescents stated 'getting provisions' as good features, whereas 7 (23%) stated 'feeling different from classmates' and 6 (20%) stated 'being teased by classmates about their disability' as bad features of having SpLD.…”

“…This study revealed that poor knowledge of classroom teachers, classmates, and family members about SpLD and about the rationale of provisions results in unpleasant experiences for students with SpLD during their schooling years and thus adversely affects their QoL (Karande et al 2009b). …”

The interview instrument, designed for this study by the investigators, had both open-and close-ended questions to guide the interview.…”

“…The children with SpLD should have regular counseling sessions in their schools to prevent feelings of alienation, self-loathing, and despair (Karande et al 2009b). The children with SpLD/ ADHD need special care as they and their parents have far more problems in their everyday life than children with SpLD only (Karande and Bhosrekar 2009).…”

Specific learning disability (SpLD) and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children which impair their academic and social functioning. Almost 20% of children with SpLD have co-occurring ADHD and vice versa. Both SpLD and ADHD significantly affect the quality of life (QoL), especially the psychosocial domains, of an afflicted child's life. Both disorders also impact the QoL of parents and siblings, causing disturbances to family functioning. SpLD even with optimum management often is a lifelong disorder. ADHD too may persist into adulthood causing disruptions to both professional and personal life. This chapter describes the QoL of Indian children with SpLD or ADHD, the factors which affect their QoL and steps that need to be taken to improve their QoL.

Cognitive impairment has been widely studied in people with psychosis. However, research is lacking into the subjective experience of cognitive impairment, its impact and ways in which individuals cope. This study aimed to provide an account of the experience of cognitive impairment in people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, including what difficulties people experience, how these difficulties are understood, how people respond to these difficulties and how they perceive others' views of these difficulties. A semi-structured interview was carried out with eight participants with a diagnosis of schizophrenia focusing on participants' experiences of difficulties with cognitive functioning. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to analyse interview transcripts. Experience of cognitive impairment was understood in terms of six master themes: impaired controlled thinking, physical sensations and impaired movement, explanations for the impairment and comparisons to the past, managing the impairment, how others see the impairment and anticipating the future. This study is the first rigorous qualitative study of the subjective experience of cognitive impairment in people with psychosis, and it provides greater context for empirical findings. The results have significant implications for clinical psychology, including education about cognitive difficulties and the importance of cognitive functioning to formulation. New areas for research include coping strategies in relation to functioning and future perspectives, ascertaining staff understanding of cognitive impairment, and reflective conversation style as an intervention for metacognitive difficulties. Key Practitioner Message Difficulties with cognitive functioning should be considered in clinical practitioners' formulations of clients' difficulties in the context of psychosis. Services should consider providing service user and carer education about cognitive impairment in psychosis. Staff may need further training in order to support people with psychosis who have difficulties with cognitive functioning.
