The connexions between minor neurological dysfunction (MND) and learning disabilities (LD) are analysed in 48 children with LD with and without MND. The two groups did not differ in a set of reading/writing tests or in neuropsychological tests. What proved to be different were the profiles of correlation internal to reading and between reading and presupposed neuropsychological functions. The results highlight the importance of studying the connexions between MND and LD and the need to take neuromotor parameters into account in the construction of clinical subtypes of learning disabilities.
