The Research Base for Renzulli's Three-Ring Conception of Giftedness.
Jarrell, Ranald H.; Borland, James H.
Journal for the Education of the Gifted, v13 n4 p288-308 Sum 1990
The article argues that, when judged on the basis of the strength of its research base, J. Renzulli's three-ring conception of giftedness is of questionable validity. Research on all three bases of the definition (above average general ability, task commitment, creativity) is reviewed. (Author/DB)
