The article empirically substantiate the theme of the High Ability/Gifted, from studies and discussions and reflections that we do, to enable better understand their approach in terms of Childhood, Adolescent and Adulthood within the so-called lifelong approach (lifespan approach), taking into account outstanding authors in the field, in Education and Psychology, with links to the Neurosciences and studies on brain development (cognition, intelligence, learning) and the culture in which the subject develops and operates. We seek to delve into aspects of human development and personality throughout life, in direct relation to social learning, to achieve profound theme of the ongoing process of learning, ending with some possibilities on attention to these people, connecting with Positive Psychology.
