RESUMO
The study compared electrical brain activity of 6 subjects in 5 different conditions. Absolute theta and alpha power in the frontal, parietal, and occipital areas were analyzed, with significant differences found only in the frontal area. Results suggested that the perception of movement requires higher order cognitive processing outside the occipital area. Implications for education and cognitive research are discussed.

The self-actualization scores of 57 youths who attended a summer day camp for gifted students were assessed using the Reflections Of Self by Youth (ROSY). Significant sex differences were confirmed. Contrary to Lewis's significant difference (1996) in mean self-actualization between Grades 7 and 8, self-actualization scores in this study were uncorrelated with grade.
