Description of 19 Learning Dysfunctions - Mechanical Reasoning and Abstract Reasoning

Mechanical Reasoning:  A person with a mechanical reasoning problem has difficulty in imagining how machines operate and in effectively handling and using tools.

Abstract Reasoning:  A person with an abstract reasoning problem would be impaired in being able to carry out in proper sequence a series of steps in a task such as in computer programming, using tools or in cooking.  The person does not understand the sequences as they need to be set up to get the correct outcome.
