Abstract: There is a lack of identification in high abilities, usually due to the lack of economic and temporal resources. One of the possibilities for addressing this issue is the creation of screening methods. This study explores the possibilities of a gender-neutral screening tool based on leadership, executive functions, overexcitability, and perfectionism. Using a quantitative methodology, the study examined differences among male and female highly able students and their non-identified peers. Results revealed no statistically significant differences across the groups, suggesting no difference in those abilities and limited screening possibilities. Logistic regression further indicated that the used tools lacked predictive power for identifying high abilities. These findings highlight the need for refined screening methods that address resource limitations, gender biases, and systemic barriers. Future research should focus on developing effective tools to identify highly able students and ensure equitable access to tailored educational support.
