Abstract This study tried to examine the relationship between learning disorders and delinquency. To this purpose, a sample of 100 juvenile delinquents who were kept under the custody of Tehranʹs detention camp were chosen randomly and were asked to take three different tests: a) a reading ability test; b) a spelling test; c) a general mathematics test. Investigation of the prevalence of learning disorders among participants was one of the main objectives of the study. The results showed that 50% of the participants were either the first or the last children of their families. 61% were not educated higher than guidance school level and 74% were raised in low-income families. According to the findings of the study, there was no meaningful relationship between learning disorders and delinquency, however, a meaningful relationship was observed between the types and the frequency of committed offences and learning disorders. Also, learning disorders were found to be more prevalent among delinquents than ordinary people.
