Abstract

Bu yazın taramasında, üstün zekalı ve yetenekli çocukların çevresiyle iletişimlerini etkileyen özellikleri araştırılmış ve bu çocuklarla iletişim kurma ipuçları üzerinde durulmuştur. Bu özellikler arasında dil becerisi, empati, oyun, arkadaşlık, liderlik, ahlaki yargılama, duygusallık, benlik saygısı, mükemmeliyetçilik, aşırı duyarlılık, hayal kırıklığı ve asilik sayılabilir. Üstün zekalı ve yetenekli çocuklar kabul görmediği ortamlarda dünyaya uyum sağlamak için farklı yollar seçebilir. Gruptan kendilerini soyutlama, dikkat çekme ve kabul görmek için gösterilerde bulunma veya herkes gibi görünmeye çalışma eğilimi gösterebilirler. Ailelerin, öğretmenlerin ve diğer yetişkinlerin üstün zekalı ve yetenekli çocukların akranlarından farklı özelliklerini kabul edip ve bunları kabul ederek başarı ve sosyalleşme merdiveninde tırmanmalarında ellerinden tutabilirler.
