This research examined students’ performance on multiple assessments designed to measure giftedness and compared their performance across the assessments to determine correlations. Students’ scores were filtered further to identify both general and domain specificity regarding intelligence. Over 80 students were tested from kindergarten to third grade in a single school.

Learning Objectives:

Participants will be able to identify potential correlations that may exist between the SAGES-3, TOMAGS-2, and RAVENS Progressive Matrices for identification of gifted learners.
Participants will obtain a heightened awareness that will inform their decisions regarding the utility of the assessments used and their use with students in early elementary school for programming.
Participants will be able to identify the role of domain specificity or general intelligence when considering planning and policy related to programming for students across aptitudes, socio-economic status, and cultures.
