우리나라 영재교육에 대한 연구들은 대부분 영재아의 개념정의와 판별도구 개발, 영재발굴, 선발 및 그들의 교육에 편중되어 있는 반면 영재아들의 적응, 자기지각, 또래관계등 사회정서발달에 관련된 연구는 거의 이루어지지 못하고 있다 이에 본 연구는 과학영재아동의 개인 및 일상생활에서의 적응수준 및 성별에 따른 적응, 자기지각 및 사회적지지의 차이를 파악하며, 그들의 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 자기지각 및 사회적 지지 수준을 살펴보고 영재아의 사회적 성취나 적응에 도움을 줄 수 있는 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 본 연구의 연구문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 과학영재아동과 일반아동의 적응(개인적응, 사회적응, 부적응), 자기지각 및 사회적 지지는 차이가 있는가\ulcorner, 둘째, 과학영재아동의 적응, 자기지각 및 사회적 지지는 성별에 따라 차이가 있는가\ulcorner, 셋째, 과학영재아동의 스트레스에 영향을 미치는 자기지각, 사회적 지지 수준은 어떠한가\ulcorner 본 연구의 대상은 전라북도에 위치한 중학교 1학년 100명의 아동이며, 이들은 교사추천 및 전북대학교 과학영재연구소의 과학과 수학시험을 통해 선발된 과학 영재아동이다. 설문결과 불성실한 응답자를 제외한 총 39명(남아 59명, 여아 30명)이 최종 연구대상이 되었다. 본 연구의 측정도구로 아동의 적응능력검사도구는 한국교육평가센터(KETC)에서 1998년 개발하여 표준화과정을 마친 종합적응능력검사를 사용하였으며, 개인적응영역(자아개념 12문항, 성취동기 10문항, 자기기획 15문항), 사회적응영역(사교성 15문항, 애착 9문항, 사회적 긍정성 10문항), 부적응영역(스트레스 20문항, 욕구좌절 10문항, 편견 12문항) 총 113문항으로 구성되어 있다. 아동의 자기지각검사도구는 Harter(1985)의 Self-Perception Profile이며, 학업역량, 사회적역량, 운동역량, 신체외모역량, 행동품행역량, 자기가치감 각각 6문항씩 총36문항으로 구성되어 있다. 아동의 사회적 지지검사도구는 한미현(1996)이 제작한 척도를 사용하였으며 부모지지, 교사지지, 학교친구지지, 친한 친구지지 각각 6문항씩 총 24문항으로 구성되어 있다.

In order to succeed in gifted education, it is necessary to educate teachers with professional skills and qualities that meet the psychological characteristics of gifted students and satisfy their educational desires. The purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics of the science/mathematics gifted students the preservice teachers who participated in the service learning in the hothousing center annexed to the university, and the direction in which the Korean hothousing should proceed. For this, the service learning was conducted in the hothousing institution targeting three students attending A education college for 12 weeks. As a result of study, the gifted children showed the outstanding cognitive, affective, and creative natures which were expressed positively or negatively according to the situation. The study participants recognized the teachers had a duty to admit the distinctive nature of the individual gifted children and to provide the specially contrived education for them for the qualitative improvement of the Korean hothousing. Simultaneously they thought the gifted children should be regarded as ordinary children before the gifted persons and treated as the children.

The purpose of this paper is to find the differences of personality types and learning styles of general students(69) and the gifted in mathematics(66) and sciences(66). 132 subjects, whose academic achievements are in top 1 % level in elementary schools, were selected from the gifted center of the university in Busan. MMTIC(Murphy-Meisgeir Type Indicator for Children) was used to classify personal style inventory(E-I, S-N, T-F and J-P). Adapted form of Grasha & Reichmann's learning style was used to classify 3 pairs: dependent-independent, competitive-collaborative, avoidant-participant. In this paper, we were mainly concerned with the differences of learning styles, and personal types of three groups according to as indices, functions and temperament. One of our results was that there were differences of personality types between general students and the gifted in mathematics and sciences according to as indices, functions and temperament. And there were differences of learning style between three groups according to as dependent-independent, and avoidant-participant.. The gifted in mathematics and sciences prefer to independent and participant learning style in comparison with general students. Finally, there were relation of personality types and learning styles. According to functions and temperament of MMTIC, SF (sensation-feeling) and NF(intuition-feeling) type students prefer to collaborative and participant styles in comparison with ST (sensation-thought) and NT(intuition-thought) type students. And NT(intuition-thought) type students prefer to avoidant styles in comparison with SF(sensation-feeling) and NF(intuition-feeling) type students.

In current knowledge-based society, development and growth of IT-related industry is essential for a nation's competitiveness since it's economic power depends on IT industry in many countries. A success of IT industry depends on a few IT geniuses like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. Thus, it is necessary to identify and foster gifted children in IT as early as possible. The purpose of this paper is to identify the correlation of academic performance per subject for the gifted children in IT. The analysis is focused on three subjects, that is, Information, Science, and Mathematics, respectively. For this purpose, the gifted children are selected and analyzed in a gifted science education center attached in a university at Seoul Metropolitan Area. The analysis results show that there is meaningful correlation among three subjects. That is, if high scores in a subject means high scores in other subjects. For instance, a gifted child with high scores in Information got high scores in Science and Mathematics. The result will be useful to improve selection examinations and curriculum for gifted education in IT, for inclusive education and convergent education.

Currently gifted education aims for convergent gifted education according to government policy. The purpose of this paper is to investigate correlation of information subject and science subject(physics, chemistry, biology, and geology) for the gifted children in IT. For this purpose, the gifted children in IT who attended a gifted science education center attached to a university at Seoul Metropolitan Area are selected. Their grades during their the period of attendance are collected and analysed. The statistical results show that there is a meaningful correlation between information subject and biology subject for the gifted children in IT. It means that the higher scores information subject is, the higher scores biology subject is. The results can be used to make or change gifted curriculum and education contents for gifted IT education.
