  SELF-ACTUALIZATION IN GIFTED AND AGGRESSIVE YOUNG PEOPLE
 
 
Title: SELF-ACTUALIZATION IN GIFTED AND AGGRESSIVE YOUNG PEOPLE
Author: Pufal-Struzik, Irena
Appeared in: High ability studies
Paging: Volume 6 (1995) nr. 1 pages 53-59
Year: 1995
Contents: A total of 80 students aged seventeen and eighteen (40 in each group) selected from several secondary schools took part in the study. It was assumed that the intensity of self-acceptance among gifted young people is positively influenced by intellectual success, as well as by the following personality traits: internal locus of control, average or low level of anxiety, strong sensation seeking. There was a trend towards higher self-actualization among gifted students (although statistically insignificant), while self-actualizing students had an internal locus of control and a need for stimulation and varied experience. The assumption that lower anxiety and higher self-acceptance are characteristic of young people with higher self-actualization was not confirmed, which suggests that there is a need to intensify parents' and teachers' support for students coping with difficulties.
