Abstract
The data presented in the history which follows is of interest from three points of view. First, a majority of the reports in the literature on the “gifted” devoted to the development of children with superior endowment stress the fact that superiority is not unitary. Gifted children tend to exceed the norm in all areas. A study of gifted twin boys (2) illustrates this point of view. Secondly, various studies have attempted to show that students of education are not comparable in endowment to students in other fields. Wolfle (3) in exploring some thirty fields of endeavor has shown that the combined fields of physical education and general education contained the fewest number of cases on the high end of the distribution curve. The subject of this study tends to be an exception to both of the above since she has a problem, and though of very superior intelligence is the offspring of educators, also of very superior intelligence.
