Stereotypes of Social Isolation and Early Burnout in the Gifted: Do They Still Exist?

Solano, Cecilia H.

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, v16 n6 p527-39 Dec 1987

Stereotypes of social isolation and early burnout in gifted students were studied through ratings by 66 male/61 female and 60 male/59 female college students, respectively, in two studies. Perception of the gifted, especially women, as having social problems is still prevalent, but the illusion of burnout is not. (SLD)
