The present study attempts to compare the attachment style (secure, avoidant and anxious) of children with and without learning disability. The study was carried out on 200 students (100 L.D. and 100 N.L.D.). The age of the selected subjects ranged from 8 to 12 years. The data was analyzed with the help of suitable statistical techniques like mean, standard deviation and t-test. On the basis of the responses, results showed that there is a significant difference in the attachment style of children with and without learning disability.
