Title
Psychobiological, clinical, and educational aspects of giftedness
Abstract
The approach to giftedness from the socio-anthropological, psychological, and neurobiological perspectives altogether allows us to understand why gifted people are occasionally misunderstood by society. In light of the fact that the particular neurofunctional characteristics of gifted children are mostly unknown, our educational and health institutions are not prepared to treat this particular social group. Gifted children are indeed habitually proactive, and they perform very efficiently based on their high intellectual coefficients to solve problems of various kinds from in areas from the social sciences to physics to mathematics. The authors of
Psychobiological, Clinical, and Educational Aspects of Giftedness, edited by Ignacio Gonzalez-Burgos, invite us to reflect on the myths and needs that these minorities have regarding their academic, intellectual, and social development, and also on the imminent need for scientific research related to the different aspects of giftedness.

abstractTranslation: El enfoque de la superdotación desde las perspectivas socio-antropológica, psicológica y neurobiológica en su conjunto nos permite comprender por qué las personas superdotadas son ocasionalmente incomprendidas por la sociedad. A la luz del hecho de que las características neurofuncionales particulares de los niños superdotados son en su mayoría desconocidas, nuestras instituciones educativas y de salud no están preparadas para tratar a este grupo social en particular. De hecho, los niños superdotados son habitualmente proactivos y se desempeñan de manera muy eficiente en función de sus altos coeficientes intelectuales para resolver problemas de diversa índole en áreas que van desde las ciencias sociales hasta la física y las matemáticas. Los autores de Aspectos psicobiológicos, clínicos y educativos de la superdotación, editado por Ignacio González-Burgos, nos invitan a reflexionar sobre los mitos y necesidades que tienen estas minorías sobre su desarrollo académico, intelectual y social, y también sobre la inminente necesidad de investigaciones científicas relacionadas con los diferentes aspectos de la superdotación.
