The intelligence quotient (IQ), measured by a psychologist through a standardized test, results above the value of 130 (the average of the population is located around a value of 100).From the qualitative point of view, it appears like divergent thinking: creative connections between information and another are only apparently disconnected. In addition to high performance in intellectual tests, gifted children have certain characteristics.
