Can the BRIGANCE Screens Detect Children Who Are Gifted and Academically Talented?

Glascoe, Frances P.

Roeper Review, v19 n1 p20-24 Sep 1996

Children (n=408) age 21-84 months were assessed to investigate the validity of the BRIGANCE Screens in comparison with criterion tests in identifying children who are gifted and talented. Results found that using the BRIGANCE screens in combination with teacher/examiner ratings produced high rates of sensitivity in identifying gifted children. (CR)
