Executive Functions in Gifted and Average Students: Tower of London Test

The present study used the Tower of London°X (TOLDX) test to compare executive planning ability among three groups: average children group attending a regular education program, a gifted childen group and another average children group, both attending a differentiated education program. The results of the study indicated that the gifted children preplanned better and solved the planning problems faster than the average children who were in the differentiated program. They also preplanned better and solved the problems correctly and faster with fewer excess moves than the average children in the regular program. The present findings provided a support to the assumption that planning as an executive function might be an indicator of general intelligence
