Abstract
Some brain research concentrates solely on the study of sites and actions of brain functions but the writer argues that it is essential for research to investigate the functions also. Educators can offer measures of brain function such as the Structure of Intellect (S O I) and psychologists need information about the characteristics of brain functions if accurate diagnosis is to be made of learning abilities and disabilities. The writer stresses the importance of defining giftedness in far broader terms than the traditional psychometric measures of intelligence. She outlines the comprehensive range of brain functions incorporated by Guilford's theory of the Structure of Intellect and suggests that its most important use will be the partnership with brain research which itself needs a theory based test of brain functions.
