Data obtained in the 1950-1955 follow-up of Terman's original (1921) group of 1528 children of Binet IQ of 140 and up are presented (see 22: 2080). Two introductory chapters review briefly the initial picture presented and the story 6 years later. Subsequent chapters include data on mortality, health, and general adjustment; intellectual status at mid-life; schooling; careers; avocational and other interests; political and social attitudes; marriage, divorce, offspring; and an integrative summary, "The Fulfillment of Promise." Included in the appendix are reproductions of the forms used (except the one for developmental information on offspring and the Concept Mastery Test): the 1950 general information, supplementary biographical data, rate of reproduction, marital happiness, field worker report, and the 1955 information blank. Continued analysis and further interpretation of certain unreported data are contemplated. 45 references. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: create)

"… a resource for teachers and administrators in understanding and helping boys and girls in elementary schools." This book replaces the Guidance Handbook for Elementary Schools published in 1948. The 3 major parts are: studying and understanding children, understanding and planning for children with special needs, school staff work together for children and evaluating guidance services. Part I includes chapters on teacher observing and listening, child expression of ideas and feelings, study of children in groups, and use of standardized tests and records. Part II deals with the mentally retarded child, vision and hearing difficulties, speech problems, emotionally disturbed children, and the bright and gifted. Chapters in Part III discuss the use of records in guidance; planning a school-wide testing program; grouping for learning; evaluating growth and learning; working with parents, use of special study, guidance conferences, and committees; working with the community; and stimulating the staff's professional growth. The book also includes a very brief Part IV on evaluating guidance services and 2 appendices. The 1st appendix provides sample forms and records, and the 2nd provides a comprehensive list of standardized tests grouped by type.

A guide for parents of gifted children who, themselves, might be average. While attention is focused on understanding "giftedness," how to be a gifted parent, and working with the gifted child, there is little reported about achievement, creativity, or the child who might be emotionally maladjusted. The book is produced by a principal, well trained academically and with many years of practical experience in working with the gifted. There are chapters focusing on the values of enrichment and acceleration; these, however, in no way reflect the insightful conclusions which might be drawn on the increasing wealth of current research.
