Developmental Study of Gifted Preschool Children and Measures of Psychosocial Giftedness.
Abroms, Kippy I.; Gollin, Joan B.
Exceptional Children, v46 n5 p334-41 Feb 1980
The relationship between role-taking ability and prosocial behaviors was studied developmentally with 20 gifted 3-year-olds. The relationship between IQ and role taking increased from fall to spring; however, neither IQ nor role-taking ability were found to be reliable predictors of prosocial behaviors in the spring, suggesting that psychosocial giftedness may develop somewhat independently of IQ and cognitive role taking.
