From the Paper:

"As a result of their cognitive, social, emotional and behavioral impairments, children with disabilities often exhibit learning and behavioral problems that undermine their learning performance in the classroom. These deficits interfere with their ability to attend to the teachers and complete their tasks. Furthermore, their low tolerance threshold for frustration and rigidities often prevent them from acquiring new knowledge and skills. To address these issues confronted by educators of children with disabilities, researchers have identified variables that affect the learning performance of these children in the classroom."
