Guskin, Samuel L.; And Others

Gifted Child Quarterly, v36 n1 p32-37 Win 1992

This study, involving 158 prospective and experienced teachers' reactions to hypothetical students' patterns of giftedness, found differential predictions of success, recommendations for programing, and trait ratings for various patterns of giftedness and talent, suggesting sensitivity to "multiple intelligences." The influence of gender, race, or social stereotypes was also indicated. (DB)
