Evaluation of a Full-Time Self-Contained Class for Gifted Students.

VanTassel-Baska, Joyce; And Others

Gifted Child Quarterly, v33 n1 p7-10 Win 1989

An elementary-school self-contained gifted class was compared to a control group on a general test of cognitive ability. Program participants exhibited significantly higher gains than did controls, and at the end of the program, participants also rated the quality of their school life more highly than did controls.
