The laws of the biological formation of the genius are examined, and the psychology of his inner development is probed. (See 4: 3312.) While giftedness is hereditary in families, geniuses originate biologically very often at the time when very gifted families start to deteriorate. Mental disorders, especially borderline conditions, are definitely more frequent among geniuses than among the average population. The question arises if the genius is a genius because of or in spite of this psychological component. A large number of geniuses are examined and classified into groups according to particular traits. The collection of portraits demonstrates the correlation between physique and the kind of genius. Certain types of body constitution prefer special modes of mental creativity. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: create)

Permanent record data, rating scales, and the California Test of Personality were used to investigate "circumstances and conditions which influence some high school pupils of superior ability to a high level of academic achievement, while others of equal ability fail to realize proportionate accomplishment." The population consisted of 237 participants in the "very superior pupil" program of the Long Beach, California schools. The superior pupil's concepts of himself and his orientation toward the future were found to be closely related to his achievement. Low achievement among pupils of superior intelligence was found to be associated with a lack of positive influences, rather than to the presence of negative influences. Although personal adjustment scores were found to be more satisfactory for the higher achievement groups, they were not a determining factor as to level of academic achievement. Patterns associated with low academic achievement were found to be numerous and varied. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: create)
