The Hollingworth Longitudinal Study: Follow-up, Findings, and Implications
Carole Ruth Harris,1990
We have seen that intellect and achievement are far from perfectly correlated. Why this is so, what circumstances affect the fruition of human talent, are questions of such transcendent importance that they should be investigated by every method that promises the slightest reduction of our present ignorance. So little do we know about our available supply of potential genius, the environmental factors that favor or hinder its expression, the emotional compulsions that give it dynamic quality, or the personality distortions that make it dangerous. (Terman & Oden, 1947, p. 352)
