Abstract	The purpose of this study is to examine Jordanian teachers' knowledge and perceptions on overexcitability, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in gifted students. Twelve semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with secondary classroom teachers including one school counselor. The study was conducted at an independent co-educational secondary school for gifted and talented students in Jordan. The interviews explored issues related to the conceptions and characteristics of giftedness, ADHD and overexcitability, and the overlap between ADHD and overexcitability in gifted learners. The findings of the study are discussed and reported. (As Provided).
