Comments on an article by Albert Zieglera & Shane N. Phillipson (see record 2012-16824-002). As an alternative to the current paradigm of gifted education, Ziegler and Phillipson proposed a systemic approach and argued that factors in the current mechanistic model of giftedness are not good predictors for exceptionality. They pinpointed that a single factor identified as an indicator of giftedness, ineffective measures, inappropriate context, and over-reliance on products make it futile to maneuver appropriate educational practices for gifted population. Their perspectives have raised some important issues in understanding the theoretical framework of gifted education. First, Ziegler and Phillipson assert that the systemic approach deals with the wholeness of giftedness without scrutinizing its components and that its main feature is in interactions between individuals and environments. However, crucial roles of environments have not been dismissed in the mechanistic perspective, either. Nonetheless, individuals’ active involvement in developing giftedness and recognition of various modes of outstanding behaviors within the system are the noticeable features of this proposed model. It is also promising that persons within the system are committed to their gifted actions, which would be changeable via interactions with environments.Hopefully, the systemic approach would be instrumental in stimulating diverse forms of giftedness, often unrecognized by traditional approaches, and producing gifted behaviors conducive to the society as well.

This study examined if personality types of gifted students predicted their psychiatric symptoms and if the type of giftedness and gender moderated the relationship between the personality and psychiatric manifestations. The Murphy-Meisgeir Type Indicator for Children and the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Adolescent were used to measure the personality types and psychiatric symptoms of 232 gifted middle-school students in South Korea. Results found that introversion predicted all of the symptoms but hypomania. Intuition predicted the symptoms of psychopathic deviance and schizophrenia and feeling predicted those of depression and conversion hysteria. Other predictive relationships were found between perceiving and hypomania and between judging and depression and social introversion. Creatively gifted students with introverted and intuitive personality types exhibited several symptoms than were academically gifted students of the same personality. Regarding gender, introverted males were more vulnerable to psychiatric symptoms compared to introverted females, and perceptive females had a higher chance to show hypomania than perceptive males. This study supported that personality characteristics partly accounted for the indications of psychological distress among gifted students. Further studies need to examine causal relationships between the two and to corroborate the current results involving adolescents.

Reports an error in "Gifted students’ perceptions of an accelerated summer program and social support" by Seon-Young Lee, Paula Olszewski-Kubilius, Matthew C. Makel and Martha Putallaz ( Gifted Child Quarterly, 2015[Oct], Vol 59[4], 265-282). The original article should have included the following acknowledgment: The authors would like to acknowledge the contributions of Corinne Alfeld and Becky Prince Kennedy to this study, particularly for their assistance with developing the survey and data collection. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2015-43792-005). Using survey responses from students who participated in the summer programs at two university-based gifted education institutions, this study examined changes in gifted students’ perceptions of their learning environments, accelerated summer programs and regular schools, and social support in lives after participation in the summer programs. Our sample of gifted students was generally favorable about their classroom experiences and interactions with their teachers both in the gifted programs and regular school classes. Some noticeable differences were greater acceptance and support for giftedness, a stronger connection to peers, and greater ease in peer relationships reported during the programs, and enhanced maturity and orientation toward future after the programs. While all students relied on family and peers as sources of social support before, during and after the summer programs, older students also endorsed being able to rely more on themselves. Perceptions of greater social support seemed to be related to more positive assessment of students’ summer and school classes, although causality can go in either direction. Overall, this study suggests that gifted students’ summer program experiences may be instrumental in receiving affirmation about their giftedness from peers, enhancing independence and maturity for academic life, and building stronger belief in themselves.
