Thirty intellectually gifted secondary school students and their nongifted siblings (N=32) were compared. No significant differences were found among the siblings (the gifted versus the nongifted siblings) in self‐perceptions nor in preferred learning style: competitive, cooperative or individualistic. No significant differences in preferred learning style were found either between siblings of female gifted versus siblings of male gifted, or between same‐gender sibling pairs versus opposite‐gender sibling pairs.
