Abstract

Students from culturally diverse, lower socioeconomic backgrounds were assessed using three nonverbal measures of intelligence. The sample was composed of elementary students in grades 2 through 6. The scores on the Culture-Fair Intelligence Test, the Naglieri Nonverbal Abilities Test, and the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices were analyzed for their usefulness in assessing for potential giftedness. Results of the assessments are discussed.
