Includes a description of the model, theory, or framework.
Shares the most important implications of each model, including underrepresentation and social justice issues.
Includes discussion questions for use with students and professionals.

The editors also consider common issues across conceptual frameworks, such as the degree to which achievement defines giftedness, the goal of gifted education, and the role of psychosocial factors.
