Hello!
Because your topic deals with Special Education I would begin with the Advanced Education Research LibGuide at http://libguides.brenau.edu/grad-ed . Click on the Special Education tab. Here you will find education databases and journals that deal specifically with Special Education. Normally I would suggest you start with ERIC, but ERIC's full text has been temporarily taken down (Aug. 2012) due to problems with a hacker. Instead, select Academic Search Complete. Log in with your Brenau username and password.
The key to this search is the correct vocabulary - figuring out what the database calls this condition. Trying various searches and using the Subject: Thesaurus Term limiter in the left toolbar of the results page, I determined that the most effective search term is ZE "nonverbal learning disabilities" . Don't drop the "ZE" - it tells the search engine which fields to search; the quotation marks are important too. I limited the search to full text peer reviewed articles and came up with 48 results from 1995-2011. Of these, 21 were published in the last 5 years. If you need additional resources, you might try searching the peer reviewed journals linked on the page.
If you need additional help, don't hesitate to ask!
