20.500.12556/RUP-21445 Identifying and supporting twice-exceptional students with emotional and behavioral disorders perspectives of primary school teachers This study investigates how primary school teachers recognize and support twiceexceptional students—those who exhibit both high cognitive potential and emotional or behavioral disorders. The objective is to explore the extent to which these students are identified in school settings and to examine professional awareness, attitudes, and practices regarding their needs. Due to the complex and often contradictory nature of their profiles, the giftedness of twice-exceptional students is frequently overlooked, especially when behavioral and emotional difficulties obscure their academic potential. Relying primarily on quantitative descriptive methods, the research surveyed education professionals on their knowledge and recognition of twice-exceptionality. The findings reveal a persistent reliance on traditional markers of giftedness, such as measurable academic performance, with insufficient attention paid to behavioral and emotional indicators. The study emphasizes the need for a multidimensional and holistic approach to giftedness identification, combining academic, psychological, and behavioral assessments. It further calls for systematic professional development and institutional adjustments to ensure these students receive adequate support, preventing their marginalization and enabling the full realization of their potential. giftedness twice-exceptionality emotional and behavioral difficulties professional recognition identification complex needs diagnostic approach nadarjenost dvojna izjemnost čustvene in vedenjske težave profesionalno prepoznavanje identifikacija kompleksne potrebe diagnostični pristop true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2025-07-11 12:34:23 2025-07-11 12:34:24 2025-07-12 03:03:43 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 459-476 no. 4 Vol. 18 October 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-07-05 159.924-057.874 1308-1470 242104835 https://www.e-iji.net/volumes/385-onlinefirst 1 9c468bb0-5e42-11f0-b41d-005056ac49c0 https://repozitorij.upr.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=31185 RAZ_Oman_Diana_2025.pdf RAZ_Oman_Diana_2025.pdf 1 FB6223D476CAB1295CB5BF39827DEA80 f2261f35f3f2594af5bd1756f77b83ab78e6290d0b15d4087da5bc044dcfff51 b52c09d4-5e42-11f0-b41d-005056ac49c0 https://repozitorij.upr.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=31186 Pedagoška fakulteta 0 0 0
