The Well-Being of Gifted Students: What Does the Research Say? A Systematic Literature Review

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to review recent literature on the subjective well-being of gifted and talented students and to consider its practical implications. Fifteen articles were reviewed, published between 2005 and 2022, and selected according to a systematic protocol from two widely used online databases. The analysis showed that it could not be clearly stated whether giftedness is a risk or a protective factor for gifted and talented children’s and adolescents’ subjective well-being. Simultaneously, the research results published in most of the analyzed articles did not indicate statistically significant differences between the sense of subjective well-being and psychological well-being of gifted and talented students compared to average-ability students. Studies on the well-being of gifted children and young people employ a number of scales relating to different areas of human psychophysical functioning, i.e.: mood, stress, sense of self-efficacy, interests, sense of loneliness, sense of humor, atmosphere in school, which allows a holistic view of the analyzed phenomenon.
