Abstract:

Reviews the literature on the families of gifted
and talented children to determine the importance of structural or demographic
characteristics of the family, family climate or environment, and values
espoused or enacted by parents. Family climate variables distinguished between
individuals who evidenced creative achievement and those who evidenced
academic achievement. Creatively gifted children had family environments that
stressed independence, were less child-centered, and had tense family
relationships and more negative affect, resulting in motivation to attain
power. Scholastic achievers came from cohesive, child-centered families with
strong parent-child identification. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007 APA,
