» What is Low Latent Inhibition

Latent inhibition In order to even attempt to explain what low latent inhibition is, I feel it is vital that an understanding of the term “latent inhibition” is reached.

Idea Overload: How To Manage Having Too Many Ideas

I am not one of those people – quite the opposite actually. I have too many ideas. Granted, not all of them are great (read: mostly terrible), but finding ideas has never been a problem for me. Too many ideas sounds like a silly thing to struggle with, and while I do believe it’s better than the alternative, it also comes with it’s own challenges. Having too many ideas feels like a curse at times. It is always better to have no ideas than false ones; to believe nothing, than to believe what is wrong.Thomas Jefferson Here is my personal method of how to navigate exactly this sort of situation. 1.

Connecting bright minds; nurturing intellectual and personal growth. Gifted Articles + The “Me” Behind the Mask: Intellectually Gifted Students and the Search for Identity « SENG. The “Me” Behind the Mask: Intellectually Gifted Students and the Search for Identity The process of identity development in intellectually gifted children and adolescents is complicated by their innate and acquired differences from age-peers.

To be valued within a peer culture which values conformity, gifted young people may mask their giftedness and develop alternative identities which are perceived as more socially acceptable. The weaving of this protective mask requires the gifted child to conceal her love of learning, her interests which differ from those of age-peers, and her advanced moral development.

Spatial & Sequential Thinking Spatial and sequential thinking are two different mental organisations that affect the way people view the world. Sequential thinking is step by step linear thinking over time, while spatial thinking is an holistic system where all knowledge is interconnected in space.

Auditory thinking is associated with sequential thinking and visual-spatial thinking is associated with spatial thinking. The sequential system involves analysis, progression from simple to complex, organisation of information and linear deductive reasoning. It is influenced by hearing and language and an awareness of time. Visual-spatial thinking is the hallmark of creativity and visual spatial learners usually gravitate to the creative professions eg. art, design, architecture, computer programming, graphics, animation, physics. Traditional teaching techniques tend to be designed for auditory sequential learners. Try this simple task. Precocite. Hypersensibles - Surchauffe du bulbe. Leaflets - English.
