Description
What has SMPY learned in 40 years? Who among talent search participants become eminent and creative as adults? Do educational interventions experienced in adolescence boost adult creativity and professional accomplishment? Can we enhance the likelihood of true excellence emerging? What happens to mathematically talented women? Do we systematically miss certain groups of individuals with current talent search procedures? These and other compelling questions on talent development will be addressed using longitudinal data collected over four decades on 5,000 talent search participants within the top 1% in ability.
