Article
Identity formation is particularly challenging for stigmatized minorities. The minority stress model (MSM) posits that both negative stereotypes and their internalization represent stressors. There is evidence that this applies to the gifted, too. However, their status is ambiguous, given that both negative and positive stereotypes exist. Furthermo...

Scientists and laypeople agree on high ability as a defining feature of giftedness. Yet their views on gifted people's socioemotional characteristics diverge. Most studies find the gifted to be similar or slightly superior to average-ability persons in these domains (“harmony hypothesis”). However, subjective conceptions and media representations,...
Article
Zusammenfassung. 1968 stellte Baddeley ein ebenso schlichtes wie ökonomisches Instrument zur Erfassung von verbalem reasoning bzw. des logischen Schlussfolgerns auf Grundlage grammatikalischer Transformationen vor, welches eine Fähigkeitseinschätzung in nur 3 Minuten erlaubt ( Baddeley, 1968 ). Aufgrund grammatikalischer Besonderheiten der englisch...

Teachers' ability to identify student cognitive potential is crucial to creating learning contexts that develop intellect and achievement. The younger students are, the more important is a focus on potential rather than achievement. Teacher judgments (TJs) as measures of intelligence are particularly important where objective IQ tests are not stand...
Preprint
The rise of large-scale collaborative panel studies in educational psychology and cognitive neuroscience has generated a need for fast, reliable, and valid assessments of cognitive abilities. In these studies, a detailed characterization of participants’ cognitive abilities is often unnecessary. Tests are chosen based on their ease of use and the d...

Full-text available
Introduction Higher intelligence has been associated with improved health and longevity. However, recent findings have claimed that exceptional intelligence may come at a cost. Individuals at the upmost end of the intelligence distribution are reported to be disproportionately afflicted by a set of stress-related physical and mental health conditio...
Article
Full-text available
Sleep-wake patterns show substantial biological determination, but they are also subject to individual choice and societal pressure. Some evidence suggests that high IQ is associated with later sleep patterns. However, it is unclear whether the relationship between IQ and later sleep is due to biological or social effects, such as the timing of wor...

In diesem Buch haben wir durch theoretisches Grundlagenwissen, empirische Befunde, kritische Essays und konkrete Handlungsimplikationen den Leserinnen und Lesern einen Eindruck über die Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten der Kreativitätsförderung in der Schule vermittelt. In diesem letzten Kapitel möchten wir unser Resümee über die verschiedenen A...
Chapter
Hören wir das Wort Trauma, inszeniert unser Unterbewusstsein zunächst ein düsteres Schauspiel aus Trauer, Schmerz und Leid. Schnell ist das Wort „Trauma“ mit psychischen Krankheiten wie Depressionen verbunden, sodass im Alltag hinter vorgehaltener Hand darüber gesprochen wird. Ist man betroffen, so redet man lieber nicht zu viel über das Thema, da...

Die PISA-Studien sind inzwischen vermutlich den meisten ein Begriff: Das Programme for International Student Assessment (dafür steht die Abkürzung), das von der OECD durchgeführt wird, erfasst in dreijährlichem Abstand, was die Fünfzehnjährigen können. An der jüngsten PISA-Studie 2018, die derzeit noch ausgewertet wird, nahmen Schülerinnen und Schü...
Chapter
In den schulischen Lehrplänen ist Kreativität vor allem im Kontext des Kunstunterrichts Thema. Um die dahinter stehenden Bildungsziele zu erreichen, braucht es jedoch ein umfassenderes Konzept. Um Kreativität adäquat erkennen und einschätzen zu können, muss man sich sowohl über Qualitätskriterien Gedanken machen als auch über die Frage, wem überhau...
Chapter
Das Kreativitätsdispositiv bezeichnet den Sachverhalt, dass Menschen in unserer Gesellschaft kreativ sein sollen und dies zugleich auch wollen. Was nach der perfekten Win-Win-Situation klingt, ist jedoch gar nicht so unproblematisch: Denn echte Kreativität ist anstrengend. Es verwundert also nicht, wenn Menschen sich dem entziehen, indem sie sich a...
Chapter
Das Gehirn ist der Ort, an dem unser Denken verortet ist. Wenn kreatives Denken also anders ist – was passiert dabei im Gehirn? Was wissen wir, und wie können wir diese Erkenntnisse vielleicht sogar schon praktisch nutzen? Hierzu hat Tanja Gabriele Baudson ein schriftliches Interview per Email mit Prof. Dr. Andreas Fink von der Universität Graz gef...
Article
Full-text available
Background: Most smokers start smoking during their early adolescence under the impression that smoking entails positive attributes. Given the addictive nature of cigarettes, however, many of them might end up as long-term smokers and suffering from tobacco-related diseases. To prevent tobacco use among adolescents, the large international medical...

BACKGROUND Most smokers start smoking during their early adolescence with the idea that smoking is glamorous. After multiple failed quit attempts however, many of them end up with tobacco related diseases physicians are not able to cure. Education Against Tobacco (EAT) is a large network of about 3.500 medical students in 14 countries who educate m...

While numerical skills are fundamental in modern societies, some estimated 5–7% of children suffer from mathematical learning difficulties (MLD) that need to be assessed early to ensure successful remediation. Universally employable diagnostic tools are yet lacking, as current test batteries for basic mathematics assessment are based on verbal inst...

Academic self-concept (ASC) is comprised of individual perceptions of one’s own academic ability. In a cross-sectional quasi-representative sample of 3,779 German elementary school children in grades 1 to 4, we investigated (a) the structure of ASC, (b) ASC profile formation, an aspect of differentiation that is reflected in lower correlations betw...

Chapter
Intelligenz im Sinne von Potenzial zum Lernen ist ein wichtiger Prädiktor von Leistung. Ein solches Potenzial entfaltet sich jedoch nur dann optimal, wenn Lehrkräfte ihr didaktisches Handeln an die individuellen intellektuellen Voraussetzungen ihrer Schüler/innen adaptieren. Nicht alle Lehrkräfte verfügen jedoch gleichermaßen über diese diagnostisc...

Introduction Smoking is the largest cause of preventable death globally. Most smokers smoke their first cigarette in early adolescence. We took advantage of the widespread availability of mobile phones and adolescents’ interest in appearance to develop a free photoaging app which is promoted via a poster campaign in secondary schools. This study ai...
Article
Full-text available
One important goal of education is to develop students’ self-esteem which, in turn, hinges on their self-concept in the academic, physical, and social domains. Prior studies have shown that physical self-concept accounts for most of the variation in self-esteem, with academic and social self-concepts playing a much lesser role. As pressure toward p...
Article
Stereotyping of gifted students may not only hinder identification and actualization of potential but also personality development (“stigma of giftedness”). This is obvious in the case of negative stereotyping (e.g., the disharmony hypothesis, which sees gifted students as intellectually strong, but emotionally and socially inferior), but even over...
Article
Full-text available
Grid-based measures, where item stems are rated across diverse domains or subjects, represent an economic measure to assess multifaceted constructs such as academic self-concept. Although testing for measurement invariance between groups (e.g., based on gender or age) and within subjects over time (e.g., in longitudinal research) is common practice...
Conference Paper
Der mini-q ist ein Intelligenzscreening, das innerhalb einer Bearbeitungszeit von drei Minuten eine grobe Abschätzung von Speeded Reasoning erlaubt und somit für eine ökonomische Erfassung der kognitiven Fähigkeiten von hohem Forschungsinteresse ist. Für die Paper-and-Pencil-Version liegen diverse Validitätshinweise vor (u. a. Korrelationen zu ande...
Conference Paper
Der Test zur Erfassung der Intelligenz im Kindesalter (THINK 1–4; Baudson, Wollschläger & Preckel, 2015) erfasst die allgemeine kognitive Leistungsfähigkeit bei Grundschulkindern der Klassen 1–4. Der THINK 1–4 beinhaltet jeweils 36 Aufgaben aus den Inhaltsbereichen figural-bildhaftes, verbales und numerisches Denken. In einer umfangreichen Normieru...
Conference Paper
Interventionen zur Leistungsentwicklung Hochbegabter gibt es einige; die Kurzintervention LOTUS – Gesprächsgruppen für hochbegabte Jugendliche fokussiert dagegen die sozio-emotionalen Bedürfnisse, die sich aus der Identitäts-, Werte- und Autonomieentwicklung ergeben, welche in dieser Phase im Vordergrund stehen. Basierend auf den Entwicklungsaufgab...
Conference Paper
Hochbegabung ist ambivalent: Während die Harmoniehypothese Hochbegabten neben kognitiver Begabung viele andere positive Eigenschaften zuschreibt, assoziiert die Disharmoniehypothese hohe Fähigkeiten mit (v.a. sozioemotionalen) Defiziten. Im Zuge ihrer Identitätsbildung müssen Hochbegabte sich mit diesen Stereotypen auseinandersetzen – ein Problem,...
Conference Paper
Giftedness is an ambivalent construct. Although empirical studies show consistently that gifted persons are by no means less emotionally or socially competent than their average-ability peers, negative prejudices stressing a disharmonious view on giftedness have proven highly persistent (Baudson & Preckel, 2013). Gifted individuals have to face the...
Article
Full-text available
The disharmony hypothesis (DH) states that high intelligence comes at a cost to the gifted, resulting in adjustment problems. We investigated whether there is a gifted stereotype that falls in line with the DH and affects attitudes toward gifted students. Preservice teachers (N = 182) worked on single-target association tests and affective priming...
Conference Paper
Students’ school-related attitudes, relationships with classmates and teachers, academic self-concept, and other social-emotional school experiences influence both students’ wellbeing and their academic development. The younger students are, the more important these “soft factors” prove in the long run. However, brief assessments that can be admini...
Conference Paper
Economic and nevertheless valid assessment of cognitive ability is useful under time constraints, especially in large research projects where this resource is limited. The intelligence screening "mini-q" allows to assess speeded reasoning in three (adults) to five minutes (children). Based on Baddeley's Test of Verbal Reasoning (1968), the mini-q d...
Conference Paper
Underachievement ist definiert als Diskrepanz zwischen erwartbarer und tatsächlicher Leistung. Das Phänomen geht mit zahlreichen negativen Begleitsymptomen einher, etwa einem geringen (akademischen) Selbstkonzept, fehlender Selbststeuerung und der Neigung zu internalisierenden und externalisierenden Problemen. Die Identifikation insbesondere hochbe...
Conference Paper
Teacher expectancy effects have attracted researchers’ attention since the discovery of the “Pygmalion effect” (Rosenthal & Jacobson, 1968). But not only expectations for their students’ future, but also teachers’ judgment of their present ability predicts life outcomes over time periods as long as forty years (Fischbach, Baudson, Preckel, Martin,...
Chapter
Entwicklungsförderung im Kindesalter ist ein vielschichtiger Prozess, für den ein differenziertes Wissen über die Entwicklungsphasen, die Diagnostik sowie geeignete Interventionen notwendig ist. Das Buch führt zunächst allgemein in die Grundlagen der Entwicklungsförderung ein. Im zweiten Teil wird auf spezifische Funktionsbereiche der kindlichen En...
Article
The present paper investigated how teacher judgments (TJs) of student intelligence at age 12 predicted adult intelligence and further key life outcomes (i.e., educational attainment, socioeconomic achievement, health, and subjective well-being) at age 52. Using path analytic techniques on a representative sample of n = 731 Luxembourg students, we f...
Article
Full-text available
The implicit theories teachers hold about the gifted influence their perception of and behavior toward highly able students, thus impacting the latter's educational opportunities. Two persistent stereotypes about the gifted can be distinguished: the harmony hypothesis (gifted students are superior in almost all domains) and the disharmony hypothesi...
Chapter
Which teachers would not love to have smart children bubbling with ideas in their classes? And, more generally: who would not like to be intelligent and creative? Both characteristics are considered highly desirable attributes and thus worthwhile goals in our culture.
Conference Paper
Oft genügen wenige Informationen, um sich ein – mehr oder weniger durch Stereotype geprägtes – Bild von einer Person zu machen. Die hier vorgestellte experimentelle Studie untersucht mit Hilfe minimaler Beschreibungen (Vignetten), wie sich drei Merkmale fiktiver Kinder und Jugendlicher – Geschlecht, Alter und Grad der Begabung – auf die Einschätzun...
Conference Paper
NFC ist eine Dimension kognitiver Motivation und umfasst die stabile, individuelle Disposition einer Person „to engage in and enjoy effortful cognitive endeavors“ (Cacioppo, Petty & Kao, 1984, S. 306). Personen mit hohem NFC zeichnen sich durch Freude am Denken aus, sie erleben intellektuell herausfordernde Aufgaben als interessant und tendieren au...
Conference Paper
Do teachers hold different conceptions of gifted relative to average-ability students? And which factors besides students’ level of ability influence teachers’ implicit theories about the ones they teach? The present study used an experimental vignette approach and latent class analysis to address this issue. The goal was to expand on prior results...
Article
Full-text available
Background: Currently, no recently normed group intelligence test for primary school children is available in Germany to cover verbal, numerical, and figural reasoning abilities. Furthermore, no test for this age group is difficult enough to be able to differentiate especially at the upper end of the intelligence distribution. Aims: The Test for (H...
Conference Paper
Teachers' implicit theories about the gifted impact their attitudes and behavior towards children they perceive as such. Do teachers hold an overall positive view (harmony hypothesis), or do they see gifted students as intellectually strong, but also emotionally unstable and socially inferior (disharmony hypothesis)? In the present study, 246 teach...
Chapter
Als union of the senses, als Einheit der Sinne, bezeichnen sowohl Lawrence E. Marks (1978) als auch Richard E. Cytowic (1989) in ihren gleichnamigen Büchern die Synästhesie; und in der Tat weist bereits das griechische Etymon des Wortes auf diese Bedeutung hin. Syn, „zusammen“, und aisthésis, „Wahrnehmung“, sind die beiden Komponenten eines Phänome...
Chapter
Full-text available
Kreativität ist die Fähigkeit, Neues zu schaffen. Genauer: Neues zu schaffen, das Menschen nützt. Neues, das soziale Innovationen treibt, Unternehmen wettbewerbsfähiger macht, Wohlstand sichert, das Leben von Individuen und Gemeinschaften verbessert, Unglück reduziert und Glück vermehrt.
