Myth: The Gifted Constitutes a Single, Homogeneous Group!

Juntune, Joyce

Gifted Child Quarterly, v26 n1 p9-10 Win 1982

The author refutes the myth that gifted students comprise a single, homogeneous group. She cites the wide variety of characteristics and notes the influence of environment upon the individual, all of which supports the need for multicomponent programs. (CL)
