Popular Estimates of the Prevalence of Giftedness and Talent.
Gagne, Francoys; And Others
Roeper Review, v16 n2 p96-98 Dec 1993
Of 341 adults, half estimated the incidence of giftedness in Quebecers and half estimated the incidence of talent, and reported on differences between being gifted and being talented. The average estimate for talented persons was 36%, with 17% for gifted persons; the perceived discrepancy was the same even for those respondents who judged the two concepts synonymously.
