This study explored talent in adolescents with intellectual disability (ID) by comparing those with and without drawing ability, examining both specific artistic skills and broader cognitive abilities. Results showed that adolescents with ID who have drawing talent also demonstrated higher fluid intelligence, cognitive flexibility, and creative thinking, with participation in art classes further enhancing their artistic performance. The findings support a global view of talent and suggest that giftedness models, such as Renzulli�s three-ring model, may be relevant for individuals with ID.

In this chapter, we discuss various methods for synthesizing nanomaterials and their properties for application in energy generation. We also explore the practical applications of different nanomaterial-based energy-generating devices and their performance, positioning them as alternative technologies to traditional power sources. The chapter highlights the overall performance—thermal, electrical, and mechanical—of nanomaterial-based energy generators and examines the role of various nanomaterials in energy-harvesting devices. Finally, we address the current challenges in applying nanomaterials in energy generation.
