What does it mean to be "gifted"?\nIs it talent? Creativity? Intelligence? A mixture of all three?\nIs giftedness something you're born with or can you nurture it?\nIs it possible to measure and predict giftedness?\nOur guest today, Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman, has tackled all these questions in his most recent book Ungifted: Intelligence Redefined. Scott is a cognitive psychologist who specializes in creativity and intelligence. Besides writing books and scholarly articles on the intersection of creativity and intelligence, Scott is a co-founder of The Creativity Post, a blog dedicated to exploring the science behind creativity and imagination.\nIn today's episode, Scott and I talk about intelligence, talent, and giftedness.
