Parent and Teacher Perceptions of Giftedness and a Program for the Gifted.
Patchett, Robin F.; Gauthier, Yvon
B. C. Journal of Special Education, v15 n1 p25-38 1991
Questionnaire responses of parents (n=165) of gifted students (grades five through eight) and regular classroom teachers (n=90) with at least one child attending an enrichment program indicated parents were more supportive of the program than teachers with both groups being concerned about a lack of task commitment and possible elitist attitudes by some gifted students.
