"Torturing Data until They Confess": An Analysis of the Three-Ring Conception of Giftedness.
Renzulli, Joseph S.
Journal for the Education of the Gifted, v13 n4 p309-31 Sum 1990
In response to a critique (EC 231 995) of the research bases of his three-ring conception of giftedness, the author notes selectivity and bias in the critic's methodology, raises larger issues (such as equity) underlying identification and programing for the gifted, and discusses the role of theory and the need for action.
