  • The purpose of this study was to find out whether scientifically creative students were selected as science-gifted class students and whether their creativity improved after class for the science-gifted students by comparing the science gifted class students to general class students in the first grade of high school. This was achieved by comparing science-gifted class students with general ones on creative personality and creative thinking ability. For this study, science-gifted class students and general class students were surveyed using Khatena-Torrance creative perception inventory and Torrance test of creative thinking with words of form A, before and after class for the science-gifted group. The results showed that science-gifted class students scored significantly higher than general class students on the creative personality. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in their creative thinking ability. Also, in this study, the sub-factors of creative personality and those of creative thinking ability showed very low levels of correlation, which implies that the two variables are highly independent. In addition, science-gifted class students did not show significant improvement in their scores on the creative personality and the creative thinking ability after class. Therefore, further research and development on the selection of science-gifted students and teaching-learning methods which can improve the creativity of these students are needed.

The questionnaire was composed of total 60 items, which were general characteristics of 18 items, family support of 11 items and quality of life of 31 items. Kang's(1984) scale of family support and Tae's(2000) scale of quality of life were used. The data were analyzed with SPSS WIN 10.0 program using frequency, mean±SD, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson's correlation analysis. Results: Forty three cancer patients answered the questionnaire. Twenty three patients was a male and 20 a female. Mean scale of family support according to general characteristics was 3.87±0.71. Mean scale of quality of life according to general characteristics was 5.89±1.08 and relatively high. The better degree of education, the higher quality of life significantly and the less physical discomfort, the higher quality of life significantly. The quality of life when the patient burdens the spouse with treatment cost was significantly higher. A correlation between degree of family support and quality of life was r=0.488 and the higher family support that cancer patients perceived, the higher quality of life significantly(p<0.001). Conclusion: The higher family support that cancer patients perceived, the higer quality of life significantly. We suggest concrete and systemic program for family support.

  • This study compared science academic passion between elementary general and science-gifted students. A science academic passion test was conducted for fifth-sixth graders at an elementary school, and two gifted science education institutes in Seoul, with 95 and 92 students selected for the test. The result analysis revealed that the science-gifted students' science intellectual passion was significantly higher than general students, regardless of grade and gender. Also, the scores of general students were high in the order of "harmonious passion," "importance," "like," "time/energy investment," and "obsessive passion." The differences in scores between all sub-domains were statistically substantial. Moreover, there were no considerable differences in scores of the science-gifted students among the "important," "like," and "harmonious passion." However, the scores in these three domains were higher than that of "time/energy investment" and "obsessive passion." In addition, the "time/energy investment" score was higher than that of "obsessive passion." The differences in science academic passion by grade and gender were not statistically significant regardless of whether or not a student was science gifted. These results suggest that science academic passion characterizes science-gifted students rather than personal characteristics such as grade or gender.
