The present study was undertaken to ascertain the leadership profile of secondary gifted students. Characteristics of leadership were based on earlier findings for adults who responded to the 16 Personality Factor Questionnaire. The High School Personality Questionnaire, an instrument based on the 16 PF, but normed for high school students, was administered to 181 secondary gifted students, all of whom had Full Scale IQs of at least 130. Comparing their profiles with those of adult leaders showed the gifted students scored higher on Factors B, intelligence; F, enthusiasm; and Q2, self-sufficiency. They scored lower on Factors G, conscientiousness and Q3, self-control.
