Abstract
The researchers devised a system for classifying different types of Gifted and Talented students with social adjustment problems at school. To determine the validity of this system, judges classified 25 elementary-age G-T students into behavioral categories according to their earliest school recollection. Judges' classifications were compared with teachers' classifications of the same students on the basis of the students' observable behaviour patterns. The agreement between judges and teachers was examined. A statistically significant agreement was found between judges' classifications of students and teachers' classifications of students.
