Highly Gifted Students in Their School Years — Part 2 of 5

Level Two Longitudinal Study Results for 4 more Highly Gifted Youngsters

How I Came to Know the Subjects and Their Families

I worked directly with most of the families and individuals in this study. I administered and interpreted intelligence and achievement tests to most of the subjects in this study. Sometimes someone else had already done the testing and the families came to me for further recommendations and support. My first book, 5 Levels of Gifted: School Issues and Educational Options in 2009, was about the Five Levels of Gifted and their early milestones and the experiences of the families. You can find these subjects first in the book and then here in these longitudinal study results, as well as other books listed at the end.

Again, the presentation of subjects follows the order of their K-12 school fit from the categories where conditions are Unsatisfactory, Acceptable, Satisfactory to Excellent. This whole series of Level Two longitudinal study results’ posts adds to the concept of “fit” by including the family and social life.
