The Validation of the Gifted Rating Scales--School Form in Saudi Arabia
Gifted and Talented International, v38 n2 p149-163 2023
The current study investigates the reliability and validity of a Saudi-translated version of the GRS-S on a sample of 1,200 Saudi elementary and middle school students. Results showed that the reliability and validity of all six of the GRS-P subscales were high. The results revealed that there were no differences between males and females in all subscales except the leadership scale. There were no differences according to grade level. The current study supports the development of a Saudi-translated version of the GRS-S. The researcher recommended using the rating scale as a screening tool in Saudi Arabia to help gifted students.
