Abstract | The author reviews the literature on infant behaviors in relation to the psycholosocial development patterns of gifted children during the first five years of life. Among the milestones discussed are infant crying, smiling, language development, social cognition, and social curiosity. It is pointed out that research data indicates gifted children age 3 to 5 exhibit superior skills on measures of social cognitive abilities and in language development. In regard to the relationship between social cognition and presocial behaviors, progressive play patterns and stability of friendship choices, gifted preschoolers seem to share behavior patterns similar to their nongifted peers. Thus the trajectory of social growth among gifted preschoolers represents a combination of both divergence and convergence in relation to B. White's "average" developing children. (Author/SB) |
