Abstract
Gifted children certainly have special psychological challenges, but they are unrelated to their giftedness. Rather, giftedness appears to bring complexity to an individual, which, depending on a variety of conditions, can either improve or impede with successful adjustment. The objective of the current research is to identify the level of social anxiety among gifted and talented student. The questionnaire for measuring social anxiety used in this study is the Social Anxiety Scale for Adolescent (SAS-A) by La Greca and Lopez (1998). The results of this study revealed that the respondents had a significantly high level of social anxiety. The researcher suggests that a motivational module be developed to help students comprehend and adapt to the uniqueness of this socioemotional issue of social anxiety among gifted and talented students at the conclusion of this study.
