تأثير العوامل الثقافية و الجنس على فرط الاستشارات لدى الطلبة الموهوبين في الكويت و الأردن : دراسة عبر ثقافية

الملخص EN

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of cultural factors and gender on the patterns over excitabilities (based on Dabrawski’s theory) among gifted students in both Jordan and Kuwait.

To achieve that, a random sample consisting of (115) male and female gifted students in ninth grades in Jordan and Kuwait, (58) Jordanian male and female gifted students and (57) Kuwaiti male and female gifted students was selected.

The researchers used the Over excitabilities Questionnaire-two (OEQII) which consists of (50) items, distributed among five basic dimen- sions: Psychomotor, Sensual, Imaginational, Intellectual, Emotional.

The result showed that: there are statistically significant differences in the patterns of Overexcitabilities attributed to the variables of cultural factors and gender among the gifted students in each of Jordan and Kuwait, and there were no statistically significant differences in the interaction between the cul- tural factors and gender variables in the sample of the study.

Based on the study results, the researchers recommend further cross-cultur- al studies in the field of creativity and gifted education for more comprehen- sive understanding to the effects of culture factors on the gifted potential and aptitudes, and including the concept of Overexcitabilities in the gifted identi- fication process and in their education programs and counseling services.
