[quote=Anonymous]Because I've given enough info/examples that anyone who is genuinely interested could google and find stuff herself. And, of course, what's interesting or relevant depends on the question you want to ask. Not to mention the fact that lots of the research isn't exactly scintillating to read. See, e.g. this study which, arguably, supports the don't tell your kid s/he's gifted approach: https://www.stanford.edu/dept/psychology/cgi-bin/drupalm/system/files/cdwecklearning%20success.pdf If you get through that without poking your own eyes out, and decide you'd prefer a fun-to-read intro to the 10,000 hours argument (with footnotes to actual research), check out Bounce by Matthew Syed (more fun than Gladwell and more citations to actual research, IIRC). If you want practicing academics, I've already mentioned Howard Gardner's work on multiple intelligences. K. Anders Ericsson is probably the most prominent of the purposeful practice folks. [/quote]
