Definición

  • Gifted girls are a population with high ability, cognitive characteristics, and complex affective needs that left unaddressed may reduce their academic achievement in school, jeopardize their creative contributions to the world around them, and significantly impair their personal journey toward self-awareness and actualization. Academic research studies during the past century provided longitudinal data to dispel a distorted view of the gifted as socially inept, physically weak boys, although research on gifted girls only began in the 1980s with Barbara Kerr's, Sally Reis's, and JoAnne Smutny's writings.
