Welcome to Volume 41, Issue 4 of the Roeper Review. The social-emotional dimensions of giftedness have been receiving more attention in the field in recent years. The articles in this issue magnify the importance of these dimensions even more. In addition, our interviews with a leading scholar of giftedness and a prominent innovator in the academic publishing world enable us to borrow insights from a nation that has enjoyed considerable educational success, and from a conveyor of cutting-edge research and theory from scores of academic disciplines and professional fields. In an extremely large scale, international analysis, Jennifer Riedl Cross, Colin Vaughn, Sakhavat Mammadov, Tracy Cross, Mihyeon Kim, Colm O’Reilly, Frances Spielhagen, Maria Pereira Da Costa, and Barry Hymer discovered some important dimensions of social coping. Their article, A CrossCultural Study of the Social Experience of Giftedness, portrays the results of their exploration of social comparison, the tendency for gifted young people to hide their strong abilities, the need for strengthening empathic capacities, and other psychological dynamics. Their findings enrich the knowledge base in the field pertaining to the social-emotional dynamics of the gifted and talented. Toni Szymanski andMelissaWrenn extend the interest in the psychosocial aspects of giftedness into adulthood in their article, GrowingUpWith Intensity: Reflections on the Lived Experiences of Intense, Gifted Adults. Their inquiry provides insights that educators and mentors can use to facilitate more effective educational, social, and personal development over the long term. In their article, Academic Emotions Experienced by Academically High-Achieving Females Who Developed Disordered Eating, Jennifer Krafchek and Leonie Kronborg discover the nature of some strong emotional influences and the ways inwhich academic achievement, self-worth, stressful life events, and other phenomena can intertwine. In the analysis they derive some helpful advice for educators, counselors, psychologists, and researchers. Each issue of the Roeper Review also includes interviews revealing the thoughts, experiences, and motivations that influence the work of highly creative, accomplished professionals. One interview always focuses on a leading scholar in gifted education or a related field, and another highlights the work of an expert in a particular domain. The scholar featured in this issue is Kirsi Tirri, a very well-known investigator of giftedness who also is a key player in the development of Finland’s impressive educational success. Kirsi is an especially dynamic leader in the development of ethical awareness in the field. The domain-specific expert in this issue is Christie Henry, Director of Princeton University Press. In the turbulent 21st-century environment, human cognition, and ethical awareness can’t seem to keep up with the macroproblems and macro-opportunities generated by globalization and technological developments (see Ambrose & Sternberg, 2016a, 2016b) so we need magnification and dissemination of insights from the world’s most brilliant scholars more now than ever before. Fortunately, through her wise leadership Christie is contributing substantially to that magnification and dissemination by strengthening the workings of a revered academic publisher. Finally, to encourage interdisciplinary thinking I conclude the introduction to each issue of the Roeper Review with a brief discussion of a theoretical or research-based construct from an outside field. The interdisciplinary insight in this issue addresses some implications of the 21st-century technological revolution.

欢迎阅读 Roeper 评论第 4 期第 41 卷。近年来，天才的社会情感维度在该领域受到越来越多的关注。本期文章进一步放大了这些维度的重要性。此外，我们采访了一位领先的天才学者和学术出版界的杰出创新者，这使我们能够从一个在教育上取得巨大成功的国家，以及从数十位学术界的前沿研究和理论的传播者那里汲取见解。学科和专业领域。在极其大规模的国际分析中，Jennifer Riedl Cross、Colin Vaughn、Sakhavat Mammadov、Tracy Cross、Mihyeon Kim、Colm O'Reilly、Frances Spielhagen、Maria Pereira Da Costa 和 Barry Hymer 发现了社会应对的一些重要方面。他们的文章，一项关于天才社会体验的跨文化研究，描绘了他们探索社会比较的结果、天才年轻人隐藏自己强大能力的倾向、加强移情能力的需要以及其他心理动态。他们的发现丰富了与天才和有才华的人的社会情感动态有关的领域的知识基础。Toni Szymanski 和 MelissaWrenn 在他们的文章“GrowingUpWith Intensity: Reflections on the Lived Experiences of Intense, Gifted Adults 中，将天才的社会心理方面的兴趣扩展到成年期。他们的调查提供了教育工作者和导师可以用来促进更有效的教育、社会和个人长期发展的见解。在他们的文章中，患有饮食失调的学业成绩优异的女性所经历的学业情绪，Jennifer Krafchek 和 Leonie Kronborg 发现了一些强烈情绪影响的本质，以及学业成就、自我价值、压力生活事件和其他现象可以相互交织的方式。在分析中，他们为教育工作者、辅导员、心理学家和研究人员提供了一些有用的建议。Roeper Review 的每一期还包括访谈，揭示影响高度创造性和成就的专业人士工作的想法、经验和动机。一次采访总是侧重于天才教育或相关领域的领先学者，而另一次则重点介绍特定领域专家的工作。本期特刊的学者是 Kirsi Tirri，一位非常著名的天才调查员，也是芬兰令人印象深刻的教育成功发展的关键人物。Kirsi 是该领域道德意识发展的特别有活力的领导者。该问题的特定领域专家是普林斯顿大学出版社主任克里斯蒂·亨利。在动荡的 21 世纪环境中，人类的认知和伦理意识似乎跟不上全球化和技术发展带来的宏观问题和宏观机遇（见 Ambrose & Sternberg, 2016a, 2016b），所以我们需要放大和传播世界上最杰出的学者的见解比以往任何时候都多。幸运的是，通过她的英明领导，克里斯蒂通过加强受人尊敬的学术出版商的运作，为这种放大和传播做出了重大贡献。最后，为了鼓励跨学科思考，我在对 Roeper Review 每一期的介绍结束时，对来自外部领域的理论或基于研究的结构进行了简要讨论。这个问题的跨学科洞察力解决了 21 世纪技术革命的一些影响。
