Individuals of the study have been distributed into two groups: the experimental group and the control group; the study sample has consisted of 20 parents and teachers of students with learning disabilities in the experimental group. The researcher has also prepared a training program based on self-learning model for self-determination (SDLMI). The data have been analyzed and the results have showed a statistically significant differences between the scores of Individuals of study sample for the two groups: experimental and control on a scale of the post self-determination of the self-determination skills favoring the experimental group of students with learning disabilities. Moreover, the results of the study have also showed a statistically significant effect between the scores of Individuals of the study sample for the two groups: experimental; and control on tests of the post academic achievement favoring the experimental group.
