Abstract:

 


Almost every man has different conception about the meaning of talent. The
situation is similarly complicated among the professionals: Talent has so many
definitions that it needs to create different categories to organize them. Hence
“talent” has no official unified definition, characteristics of talent gives a knotty
question even to the professionals who care with the investigation of talent, not
only for laymen. Is it coded into our genes? Is it a privilege just for some persons?
Could it be measured objectively? Such and similar questions (seven) were
integrated into the questionnaire of this research. The main goal was to explore
the opinion of the university-teachers (N=273) who have experience about the
cooperation with talented students. After a general investigation, I have compared
the attitudes among different science-areas. After that, I have compared it with a
miscellaneous (in the aspect of the science-area) control group which consisted
from German professors (N=48). 3Due to the ANOVA-results, we can conclude
that there was concordance among the scientists of the different areas about the
eternal dilemmas: In the cases of six questions from the seven, there was no
significant difference among the groups (science-areas). The only exception was
the question about the appearing-time of the talent (early or late?).
