Developmental characteristics of a 0- to 3-year-old gifted child based on video analysis

The purpose of the present case study was to conduct a detailed analysis of the developmental characteristics of a gifted child. WISC-R intelligence test was administered to a 7-year-old participant. The test result was 140 IQ. The early developmental characteristics of the participant were evaluated using parent-recorded videos over a 3-year period, from birth to 3 years of age. First, all video recordings were transcribed by the research team, then the accuracy and completeness of the transcriptions were verified. The results showed that the participant displayed early gifted developmental characteristics in fine motor skills, cognitive, language, social, and personal developmental domains.
