Constancy of IQ Scores among Gifted Children.
Cahan, Sorel; Gejman, Alicia
Roeper Review, v15 n3 p140-43 Feb-Mar 1993
The constancy of intelligence quotients (IQs) of 161 gifted Israeli children, obtained initially in grades K-4 and retested 1-4 years later, was examined. Results indicated that 86% still qualified as gifted on the retest, with mean differences of five to eight IQ points. Performance scores tended to remain constant, whereas verbal scores tended to decline. (DB)
