Definition
The term “highly gifted” implies that a person is highly gifted and therefore has a greater potential for giftedness than others, or that he can use his talents in a different, e.g. more purposeful way. Various research results show that in the area of giftedness, a distinction must be made between: General intellectual giftedness usually refers to several areas, i.e. it is rarely limited to one area of knowledge. Outwardly, such giftedness is conspicuous by a quick perception and a special memory capacity, which, together with other talents, makes them perform particularly well.
In the following, the causes of giftedness will be discussed and it will also be shown that a genetic disposition alone cannot lead people to high performance.
- The general intellectual talent and the
- Special talents that relate to a specific field. A distinction is made, for example, between social talent, artistic, musical or psychomotor talent.
Promotion of giftedness
In order to promote an existing high talent, concentration games are particularly advisable. For this purpose, we have developed a game in combination with a game manufacturer, which can playfully promote giftedness. Through the combination of concentration and games, different goals can be reached very well.
We place particular emphasis on the high quality and workmanship of this game. The talent as well as the potential for special achievements are genetically determined and are therefore inherited. However, the genetic basis alone does not say anything about the development of a highly gifted player.
It is now known that genetic predisposition alone is not sufficient to fully develop the abilities. In order for a gifted person to unfold, as many factors as possible must enable a holistic personality development. This means that the environment of a highly gifted adult, adolescent or even child plays a special role.
This is what the triadic interdependence model according to Mönks tries to represent. It shows that only the interplay of several (positively reinforcing) factors enables the development of intellectual abilities in the form of giftedness. The intersection of these factors shows that the development of giftedness depends on many factors and is partly conditioned by them.
Intellectual abilities are often not fully utilized in infancy, childhood and/or adolescence. Various reinforcing factors are needed, such as While the factors mentioned above tend to act on the child from the outside, there are special individual factors, such as a major role These factors have become an integral part of modern definitions of giftedness, so that although the determination of the intelligence quotient still plays a role in the diagnostic definition, it is not the only measure used to define giftedness. Such a well-founded diagnosis requires the assistance of an experienced diagnostician (e.g., a child psychologist-adolescent psychologist).
