Genetic Studies of Genius : ウィキペディア英語版 | Genetic Studies of Genius The Genetic Studies of Genius, today known as the Terman Study of the Gifted,〔Holahan, C. K., & Sears, R. R. (1995) ''The Gifted Group in Later Maturity''. Stanford University Press: Stanford, CA.〕 is the oldest and one of the longest running longitudinal studies in the field of psychology. It was begun in 1921 to examine the development and characteristics of gifted children into adulthood. The study was started by Lewis Terman at Stanford University and is now the oldest and longest running longitudinal study in the world.〔Holahan, p. xi.〕 The results from the study have been published in five books,〔Holahan & Sears, 1995〕 a monograph, and dozens of articles. A related retrospective study of eminent men in history by Catharine Cox, though not part of the longitudinal study, was published as part of the Genetic Studies of Genius. ==Origin== Terman had previously performed studies in intelligence, including his doctoral dissertation. In 1916, he adapted Alfred Binet's intelligence test for the United States and expanded its range. The result was the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, which are still in use today (in an updated form). After his service in developing the Army Alpha during World War I, Terman returned to Stanford in order to start his study. Terman hired several assistants, including Florence Goodenough and Catharine Cox, to search the public schools of California for gifted children. Terman initially hoped to find the 1,000 most intelligent children,〔Terman, 1930, p. 19.〕 but eventually found 1,444.〔Terman, 1930, p. 39〕 However, Terman gradually added subjects to the study through 1928 until there were 1,528 (856 males and 672 females).〔Holahan & Sears, 1995, p. 12〕 Not all subjects were discovered with the Stanford-Binet. Some were selected for the study with the National Intelligence Tests and the Army Alpha. The study subjects were born between 1900 and 1925, all lived in California, were about 90% white, and the majority came from upper- or middle-class families.〔Holahan & Sears, 1995, p. 11-14〕
