The present work is focused on the description from relationships between social intelligence and social competences in gifted and non-gifted children and their relationship with abstract intelligence. Based on a study with Portuguese children, 369 are non-gifted children from regular class and 32 were gifted children, we applied: Cognitive Test of Social Intelligence for Children (PRPI-6/11; Candeias et al., 2008), Social Competence Test for Children (PACS-6/11, Candeias et al., 2008) and Coloured Progressive Matrices (CPM, Raven, 1965); we examined the relathionships between Social Intelligence dimensions (Interpersonal Problem Solving, Familiarity, Motivation and Self-confidence), Social Competence and Abstract Intelligence. These findings allow a more specific and significant way to assess and to identify social intelligen ce and its relationships with social competences and abstract intelligence, and are one way to promote a new look at human abilities and social competence, specially for assessment and intervention with gif ted children in educational contexts.
