Abstract:
Numerous questions on widely called "gifted" children remain unanswered. Based on our clinical experience in the first national center for high ability children and adolescents with difficulties, this article examines, after defining some terms and concepts, clinical signs associated with high ability children and psychopathological disorders frequently described in this population. The assessment of cognitive, socioemotional and conative profiles should allow to go beyond the simples/singles IQ measures, in order to provide a global scholastic, familial and social care tailored to the needs of the child and his or her environment.
