Only in gifted students there was a positive and significant relationship between the subscale of effectiveness/authenticity and alexithymia. There was also a significant difference in scores of alexithymia and emotional creativity between both groups, such that scores of alexithymia in normal students and scores of emotional creativity in gifted students were higher than the other group.The higher the students’ emotional creativity is, the better and easier they would be able to know and express their emotions, and they can consequently communicate better with others.
