Those Who Gift Only Themselves: An Analysis of Gifted Narcissists as Ultimate Self-Transactionalists
Ophélie A. Desmet; Robert J. Sternberg – Roeper Review, 2024
Researchers have argued that many leaders, such as CEOs and politicians, tend to possess narcissistic traits. At healthy and productive levels, narcissistic traits, such as self-promotion, may actually be an advantage to achieving success in some fields. Yet, few researchers have explored gifted narcissists as a twice-exceptionality. This article…

Fleith, Denise S.; Pereira, Nielsen; Alencar, Eunice M. L. S. – Gifted Education International, 2022
For more than 90 years, terminology related to giftedness in Brazil has evolved, proliferating terms used to describe gifted individuals. Terms such as "superdotado" (the common translation of "gifted" into Portuguese) may lead lay people to think of gifted students as only those with extremely high ability or extraordinary…

This article proposes a duplex model for understanding giftedness. The first part of the duplex is the set of gifted skills and attitudes that one possesses as a result of heredity, the environment, and their interaction. It is the input that one has acquired from one's life experiences. The second part of the duplex is the utilization or…

Opoku, Maxwell Peprah; Nketsia, William; Amponteng, Michael; Mprah, Wisdom Kwadwo; Kumi, Emmanuel Opoku – Journal for the Education of the Gifted, 2023
Teacher training is fundamental to the success of gifted and talented education (GATE). Unfortunately, in sub-Saharan Africa, which is still in the early stages of practicing inclusive education, knowledge about GATE is limited because preservice teacher training programs have yet to prioritize this subject area. The aim of this exploratory study…

Sternberg, Robert J. – Roeper Review, 2023
Two implicit metaphors can be seen as having dominated the study of the gifted--the savings bank and the investment bank. In the savings-bank metaphor, people have differential levels of IQ or general intelligence, which is viewed as determining whether they are gifted. Their cognitive ability is their metaphorical "money in the bank."…

Bruce M. Shore – Roeper Review, 2025
In a national survey of U.S. adults, the number of close friends increased with age and 76% reported having three or more. However, 8% reported having none. There are limited parallel data for gifted learners but the survey provided an opportunity to compare the two groups. The numbers of close friends for gifted learners appears to increase from…

Sternberg, Robert J. – Roeper Review, 2022
The field of giftedness legitimates itself on the basis of correlations of gifted-identification measures with future success that do not mean what they often are taken to mean. When one views the inadequacies of these correlations, the field turns out to be much like the emperor who had no clothes. This essay reviews some of the assumptions upon…

Olenchak, F. Richard – Gifted Education International, 2022
The dialogues, debates, and even arguments resulting from misunderstanding, misinterpretation, and mishandling of programs and people associated with the term "giftedness" are longstanding. Despite many years of efforts to assuage concerns of equity and need--many of which are legitimized by research evidence, the terminology continues…

Through culturally responsive and sustainable teaching practices, we can develop cultural awareness and holistically embrace our gifted children--how they think, feel, and learn. We…

Sternberg, Robert J.; Ghahremani, Mehdi; Ehsan, Hoda – Roeper Review, 2023
Myside bias, a form of confirmation bias, is a major impediment to scientific thinking. It results in scientists, potential scientists, and consumers of science drawing conclusions that do not follow from data but rather that follow from prior scientific, ideological beliefs. Gifted people are at least as susceptible to these biases as are other…

Olivia M. Hile; Tyson J. Sorensen; Aaron J. McKim – Journal of Agricultural Education, 2022
Agriculture teachers are responsible for the education of a mixed ability classroom, in which there may be students identified as gifted. It is unclear how much preservice preparation agriculture teachers receive in order to challenge this population of students or what inservice teacher professional development needs exist. This study aimed to…
