The psychomotor overexcitability (OE) is one of five intensities identified by Kazimierz Dabrowski in gifted individuals, observed in those with an IQ of 130 or above. This OE includes traits like rapid speech, impulsive actions, and high energy. While most gifted individuals possess two to five OEs, not every gifted person experiences psychomotor OE. It differs from ADHD, emphasizing that individuals may exhibit varied characteristics of psychomotor OE without showing all traits clearly, showcasing the complexity of giftedness and the differing expressions of overexcitabilities.
Psychomotor overexcitability (OE) is one of the five intensities that gifted individuals may experience, characterized by traits such as high energy and impulsive actions.
Gifted individuals with psychomotor OE may display compulsive speech or nervous habits but can vary in the prominence of these traits and not exhibit all characteristics.
While not every gifted individual possesses psychomotor OE, it is common, as most high-IQ individuals have two to five different OEs, including psychomotor.
Psychomotor OE is distinct from ADHD, serving as an important distinguishing factor for understanding behaviors in gifted individuals.
