Development And Validation Of The Extended Model Of Gifttedness And Talent (EMGT) Using Structural Equation Modeling

The concept of compounding of different abilities into a specific capability was demonstrated by Spearman (1905) and Mcgrew (1997) for the Cattell Horn Carroll Model using factor analysis but has remained unexplored since then and the effects of nurturing elements has also remained unresolved.
