Abstract:
In the present work, in order to investigate the relationship between learning and emotional difficulties, the method of literature review was used. In particular, the questions that this research was required to answer were about whether children with learning difficulties are at a greater risk of manifestating emotional difficulties, but also to identify the emotional difficulty that is responsible for the most common learning disability in this particular group of students. For this purpose, a research of both international and Greek articles, older and more recent ones, was conducted depending on scientific journals, bibliographies and field research. The results of the research show that these students are actually at a greater risk of developing emotional difficulties. In fact, research has shown that loneliness, depression, anxiety and low self-esteem can affect these children and their academic performance. In conclusion, it was found that the sense of failure that these students feel also affects their emotional balance.
