FOOTNOTES 1 "Self-esteem" and "self-concept" have been de-

fined in a variety of ways in the literature. Some in- vestigators have used these terms to distinguish be- tween cognitive appraisal (self-concept) and affective appraisal (self-esteem), but these distinc- tions are not well maintained. In this article, the terms are used interchangeably to refer to global self-perceptions; that is, how one evaluates or feels about oneself, overall.

2 There are different admission criteria for stu- dents entering the campus as freshmen and those entering as transfer students. All students who have successfully completed two years at a California com- munity college, for example, are normally accepted as transfer students. Students with LD enter through both of these avenues; the impact of different admis- sion procedures on the characteristics of students with LD and their eventual success in the program requires further study.
