  • Examines issues related to underachievement in culturally different children. For a specific cultural group, the Canadian Inuit (Eskimo) people, the inappropriateness and inadequacy of the frequently used intelligence-achievement discrepancy for identifying underachievement is demonstrated. Approaches for assessing underachievement and giftedness in culturally different children, without reliance on standardized and inappropriately normed tests, are considered. Cognitive strategies programs are noted as having potential for remediation of learning difficulties in culturally different, underachieving, gifted children. The ultimate goal is seen as identification of culturally different children, reduction or elimination of underachievement, and development of their full potential. Examples of human figure drawings (Goodenough-Harris Drawing Test) by Inuit children that illustrate the lack of clear relationship between high ability (IQ) and high creativity, are included.
