Social Coping Strategies Among Gifted Boys and Girls

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The article is focused on the social relationships of gifted children and specifically the social coping strategies they use in order to enhance their position in their school classroom. The study is focussed on diagnosed gifted pupils on the level of education ISCED2 who are mostly placed in special schools or classes for the gifted. The research is based on a five-factor version of the Social Coping Questionnaire by Swiatek (2002) applied in the Czech educational environment. The five factors include: Denying Giftedness, Social Interaction, Humour, Conformity and Peer Acceptance. Due to the repeatedly detected unstable factor structure in the questionnaire, we don´t base our results strictly on established factors in the scope of the analysis, and we focus on the items individually. The goal was to find out whether there are differences in the usage of social coping strategies by boys and by girls. 235 diagnosed gifted pupils in total were involved in the research. We found substantively significant results in the usage of social coping strategies among girls and boys. The gifted boys’ strategy is humour and they declare to be better accepted by their peers than the gifted girls. The gifted girls, on the other hand, deny their giftedness; they try to conform and use their talent in the form of helping their classmates with homework and catch-up learning.
