Sarouphim, Ketty M.
Journal of Secondary Gifted Education, v14 n1 p30-38 Fall 2002
A study of 303 predominately Hispanic and Native American ninth graders investigated the validity of the DISCOVER assessment. Results provided evidence for an alignment of the assessment with the theory of multiple intelligences. No overall gender or ethnic differences were found in the numbers of students identified as gifted. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
