Brody and Mills [1997] argue that this population of students "could be considered the most misunderstood of all exceptionalities". [5] In each situation, the twice-exceptional student's strengths help to compensate for deficits; the deficits, on the other hand, make the child's strengths less apparent [6] although as yet there is no empirical research to confirm this theory.
An at-risk student is a term used in the United States to describe a student who requires temporary or ongoing intervention in order to succeed academically.

This could be attributed to a variety of factors such as an inclination for novelty-seeking, a more optimistic outlook on outcomes, or even a reduced aversion to risk which is inherent in youth.

Two alternative programs to combat the disease have been proposed. Assume that the exact scientific estimates of the consequences of the programs are as follows: If Program C is adopted, 400 people will die. (22%) If Program D is adopted, there is a one-third probability that nobody will die and a two-thirds probability that 600 people will die ...

Goal congruence also plays a role in influencing the relationship between one's core self-evaluations and the satisfaction one has with one's job. The theory behind goal congruence argues that people who choose self-concordant (i.e., congruent) goals will be happier with the goals they pursue, be more likely to put in effort towards achieving ...
