Abstract

The gifted student with attention deficit disorder (ADD) often goes unrecognized and can present difficulties for our educational system. Comprehensive diagnosis of an ADD student's learning abilities can be accomplished using the Structure of Intellect (SOI) tests, which distinguish giftedness and disability. SOI analysis provides for a clear program of remediation using a wholistic model encompassing visual, auditory, nutritional, personality, and intellectual performance. Two cases are presented.
