Intellectual Abilities and Psychological Intensities in Young Children: Implications for the Gifted.

Kitano, Margie K.

Roeper Review, v13 n1 p5-10 Sep-Oct 1990

This study investigated relationships between parent-perceived psychological intensities of a heterogeneous sample of 67 preschool-age children and standardized measures of intelligence and creativity. Total intensity scores correlated negatively with children's chronological age and positively with intelligence scores, indicating that bright children may possess potential problem characteristics.
