6 The Spokesman-Review July 26, 1958. Priest Rates 'VO' as Essential as 'IQ' You may have hot, your chances The value of a the Rev. Gordon zaga preparatory university "Institute night. a high "IQ" but if you're "VQ" isn't so for success aren't very good. volitional quotient (VQ) was stressed by E.

Toner, S. former principal of Gonschool, in the closing talk of the Gonzaga for the Talented Child" series last Also speaking at the final session was the Rev. William Costo tello, S. institute chairman. Father Toner said that he has observed boys with low "IQ" who produced well and those with high "IQ" whose work was not well.

"Though the 1Q is important, there is another quotient, "VQ" or volitional quotient, which includes one's attitude toward life and study." "It's important up here," he he added pointing to his heart, said pointing to. his but "It's also important down here. He cited the work of a student who took one of the toughest courses offered and brought home report cards with nothing less than a "C' and largely loaded with and "B' grades. The boy had an "1Q" wanted to succeed and he of, just 95. will succeed." Father Toner said.

Father Costello said the "socalled tensions and malajustments" of gifted children "can be overly emphasized." Psychologists can be more worried about what might happen than parents and teachers are concerned over what has already occurred. He cited sources tending to indicate that though gifted children participate in programs above. their age level they "usually remain normal." As to identifying the gifted in the first place, he recommended use of IQ tests, but insisted that "no standard measurement can equal the alert teacher" in recognizing superior students. Motivation Important Motivating then person with high "IQ" was listed by Father Costello as perhaps the "most important" aspect of the gifted child problem. Among the factors involved i in motivation was the child's attitude, his need for achievement, inner incentive, social incentive and health and biological factors.

Father Costello mentioned religion last, but he didn't rate it that low in importance. "Many are urged to achieve for the glory of God." he said including Protestant's, Jews and Catholics in his statement. He reviewed the many subjects covered in the institute and suggested that a combination of acceleration, grouping and enrichment program might be the best solution to the problem of educating a gifted person. Father Costello the institute had "only made beginning" said, and hoped that out of it could come something of a permanent nature. "We have far to go, but the distance we have to travel must not discourage us," he said.
