Features: The study of underachieving students is one of the important practical and theoretical topics in educational science, particularly in teaching theory. The resolution of this issue depends on two prerequisites: "reflection" and "action." The former primarily elucidates the nature of underachieving student phenomena and their treatment from a theoretical perspective, while the latter mainly summarizes and promotes the creative experiences of advanced schools from a practical standpoint, enhancing the quality of educational practice. This book aims to systematically elaborate the fundamental theories of scholars from the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, Japan, and other countries regarding the study of underachieving students. It further cites a large number of case analyses to provide teachers and parents with as comprehensive information and necessary insights as possible for thinking about underachieving student issues. The content is elaborated from nine levels: "Defining and Analyzing the Causes of Underachieving Students, The Psychology of Underachieving Students, Diagnosis and Treatment of Academic Underachievement, Diagnosis and Treatment of Learning Disabilities, Teaching Theory Analysis of Underachieving Students, Personality Analysis of Underachieving Students, Preventive Education for Underachieving Students, Research on Academic Underachievement by Chinese Scholars, and Better Understanding Underachieving Students." This is a comprehensive summary of the educational psychology and educational methodology of underachieving students.
