On average, students who attend schools for gifted children have a lower academic self-concept than students of equal intelligence who attend regular schools with students of widely varying abilities. If we consider research about factors affecting students' self-concepts and self-esteem, we can explain this finding in the following way:
A) identifying a child as gifted requires an intensive evaluation, and evaluations inevitably lower self-esteem.
B) children form their self-concepts in part by comparing their own performance to the performance of those around them.
C) having a label of any kind–even the label "gifted"–tends to lower self-esteem.
D) children who attend gifted programs typically have more assertive parents, and such parents tend to undermine their children's self-esteem.
