Self-Concept and Gifted Girls: A Cross Sectional Study of Intellectually Gifted Females in Grades 3, 5, 8.
Klein, Ann G.; Zehms, Debra
Roeper Review, v19 n1 p30-34 Sep 1996
This study examines self-concept scores of 134 females (104 gifted and 30 nongifted) in 3rd, 5th, and 8th grades. Findings indicate that the total self-concept scores of gifted girls declined significantly between third and eighth grades. Eighth-grade gifted girls had a more negative sense of self than did nongifted girls. (Author/CR)
