The study has examined, with the help of previous research in this field, what links exist between these difficulties. The study listed a sample of research reports and literature concerning students with general linguistic difficulties but also those students who have Swedish as a second language as well as students with dyslexia.

It highlights whether there are links between these difficulties, how you as an educator can see these difficulties and handson advice on adaptations that can be made to help these students. The study's results show a clear link between linguistic difficulties and difficulties in mathematics. The study shows that it may be due to many different causes, but that a link exists in many cases. The study also results in adaptations to help teachers and prospective teachers to see the connection between these difficulties, how they can be discovered and how they can be helped.
