  • This grounded theory study investigated collaboration methods among actors working with gifted students with complex educational needs and their parents. Through interviews with students, parents, educational professionals, and care providers, both successful and unsuccessful collaboration strategies were examined. Subsequently, a model was proposed to enhance effective collaboration for this unique, but heterogenous group of students. This model describes overarching collaboration conditions that preferably should be discussed beforehand with actors involved to establish a functional collaborative culture. Furthermore, this model describes specific tasks for all actors involved that could be applied accordingly to enhance collaboration practices. Lastly, a case coordinator should be assigned that ensures continuity, stability, and a constant flow of information. By following this model, educational professionals, care providers, parents, and policy makers may find ways to enhance their collaboration practices to support these students more adequately in their development.

  • This study investigated risk and protective factors associated with dyslexia and literacy development, both at (he group and individual level, to gain more insight in underlying cognitive profiles and possibilities for compensation in high-IQ children. A sample of 73 Dutch primary school children included a dyslexic group, a gifted-dyslexic group, and a borderline-dyslexic group (i.e., gifted children with relative literacy problems). Children were assessed on literacy, phonology, language, and working memory. Competing hypotheses were formulated, comparing the core-deficit view to the twice-exceptionality view on compensation with giftedness-related strengths. The results showed no indication of compensation of dyslexia-related deficits by giftedness-related strengths in gifted children with dyslexia. The higher literacy levels of borderline children compared to gifted children with dyslexia seemed the result of both fewer combinations of risk factors and less severe phonological deficits in this group. There was no evidence for compensation by specific strengths more relevant to literacy development in the borderline group. Accordingly, the findings largely supported the core-deficit view, whereas no evidence for the twice-exceptionality view was found. Besides practical implications, the findings also add to knowledge about the different manifestations of dyslexia and associated underlying cognitive factors at the higher end of the intelligence spectrum.
