From among mothers of all 9-14<br />year old students with and without learning<br />disability in Arak in 1389 (A.H.), and using a<br />random sampling procedure a sample of 80<br />mothers of students with LD, and 80 mothers<br />of normal students matched in terms of<br />maternal age, education and number of children<br />was selected. Data were collected using scales of<br />perfectionism and procrastination. Multivariate<br />analysis of variance indicated that mothers of<br />LD students reported more negative perfectionism<br />and higher procrastination. We speculate that<br />perfectionism may be the reason for high levels<br />of anxiety, fear of failure, and depression in<br />mothers of LD children and procrastination is<br />used by them to get rid of negative emotions<br />temporarily.
