“…This is particularly true for long‐term programs that require extensive investments of time . When talented girls participate in such extracurricular programs, little can be concluded about the programs’ effectiveness, as control groups are often missing or inappropriately designed …”

We advocate a more contextual perspective in giftedness research. In our view, doing so opens up three particularly interesting research areas, which we refer to as the participation issue, the effectiveness issue, and the interaction issue. To illustrate their utility, we examined characteristics of females participating in German high achiever-track secondary education who had applied for participation in a 1-year extracurricular e-mentoring program in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) (n = 1237). Their characteristics were compared with male and female random-sample control groups. We assessed the effectiveness of the mentoring program by comparing the developmental trajectories of program participants with those of three control groups: applicants who were randomly chosen for later participation (waiting-list control group) and a female and a male control group. Finally, we examined whether differences in program effectiveness could be partially explained by characteristics of the interaction with the domain. Program applicants possessed more advantageous individual characteristics but, unexpectedly, less advantageous home and school environments than female and male members of the control groups. Program participation affected positive changes in certainty about career goals (independent of STEM) and in the number of STEM activities. The amount of STEM communication partially explained differences in program effectiveness.

“…Kramer-Welch test was set for uniform groups studied parameters. Indeed, after the first month of therapy results were statistically indistinguishable (p = 0.049), but after three months difference reached statistical significance for parameters such as the volume (p = 0.00088) and the number of nocturnal enuresis (p = 0.000017) episodes (Warne et al, 2012).…”

The aim of the present study was to identify the frequency of nocturnal polyuria in children with suffering by OAB. Further, efficacy of the oxybutynine monotherapy either individually or in combination with desmopressin MELT was also accessed in present study. In present study, total 150 patients were selected for the clinical trial at Moscow Voiding Disfunction Centre from 2007-2011. Data collected for this study were based on the intensity of urination, calendar of episodes of incontinence, results of dyuresis, uroflowmethry with determination of volume of residual urine, ultrasound examination (USE) of the kidneys and bladder. Among the examined 150 patients, only 50 respondents found suitable for the study while the rest 100 respondents were excluded from the study due to different reasons. These participants with clinical symptoms of urinary disorders were assessed by qualimetry and evaluated with 32+ 2.5 points and were randomized into two treatment groups, among these group 1 (20 patients) were treated by oxybutyninе and desmopress in MELT bedtime while the group 2 (30 patients) were treated by only basic therapy with oxybutynine. In group 1, the clinical picture is changed and the assessment of quality control has decreased towards the relief of clinical symptoms up to 22 points, on the basis of increasing the volume of the bladder and decrease nocturnal polyuria. This improvement is statistically significant reduction in the level of nocturia and 38 ± 8% in

“…Answering these questions will take more research on a wide array of gifted populations. I believe that the field of gifted education is ready for more psychometric research because gifted education is undergoing a revolution in methodology and statistics, as demonstrated by several recent works (Matthews et al, 2008;McCoach, Rambo, & Welsh., 2013;Shore, 2006;Thompson & Subotnik, 2010;VanTassel-Baska, 2006;Warne et al, 2012). Above-level testing is an ideal battlefront for this revolution because the practice is so widely accepted, yet poorly understood.…”

One widely accepted assessment practice in the field of gifted education is above-level testing, which has been defined as "the procedure of administering a test to a gifted child who is younger or in a lower grade than the group for which the test was originally designed" (Warne, 2012, p. 183). Also called out-of-level testing, off-grade testing, and off-level testing, above-level testing is used to screen students for Talent Search participation (
