This book was written primarily for parents and teachers of high school students who suffer from learning difficulties that stem from a variety of different causes. Just a few among those possible difficulties are attention-deficit disorder, difficulties in perception, motor control problems, and even severe anxiety attacks related to test-taking situations. The author presents a strategic study program and test-taking plan specifically designed to help such students prepare for the SAT college entrance test. Separate chapters outline test-taking strategies for all three sections of the SAT: Critical Reading, Writing, and Math. The author also advises on how to apply each recommended strategy. Appendices cover lists of prefixes, suffixes, and roots for students to master as they bring their vocabulary up to SAT levels; plus a list of math terms and definitions to help them understand the SAT Math section's questions and answer them correctly.

What is its nature and what kinds of treatments can improve it? Using key concepts and methods and a substantive body of research, this book aims to answer these questions and clarify social phobia by means of critical discussions and examination of evidence.
