404 Exceptionally Gifted Children: Long-Term Outcomes of Academic Acceleration and Nonacceleration Miraca U. M. Gross 20-year longitudinal study has traced the academic, social, and emotional devel opment of 60 young ustralians with Qs of 160 and aboe. Significant differences have been noted in the young people’s educational status and direction, life satisfac - tion, social relationships, and self-esteem as a function of the degree of academic accel - courses, report lower levels of life satisfaction, and in many cases, experience significant difficulties with socialization. Several did not graduate from college or high school. Without exception, these young people possess multiple talents; however, for some, the extent and direction of talent development has been dictated by their schools’ academic priorities or their teachers’ willingness or unwillingness to assist in the development of particular talent areas.
