Characteristics Checklist for Gifted Children
OFTEN THE EARLIEST identification of gifted children takes place by simple observation of the child's behaviour by an educational professional, a parent or friend. Far from undermined by being subjective, identification by characteristic traits is generally accurate, and is less intrusive or conspicuous than other methods. It also readily allows types of giftedness to be detected, and is often valuably used with young children. Nonetheless subjective elements are certainly involved particularly in comparisons with other children of the same age.
The following lists were adapted from one compiled from various sources. Note it is not expected that any gifted child will show all the traits listed in any section.
Characteristic traits are listed by broad category of giftedness. These are:
General intellectual ability
Specific academic aptitude
