The study objective was to apply the Total Giftedness Development Model (TGDM) among a Saudi Arabian sample and study its effectiveness. The descriptive and case study research methods were applied on a sample of 807 male students, age 5 to 18 to test the efficacy of the model. Several instruments, including The Saudi Mental Abilities Test, Torrance Test for Creative Thinking, academic achievement scores, and Renzulli’ s Scales for Rating Behavioral Characteristics of Superior Students (SRBCSS) were used in the study. The most significant results of the study are: (a) The TGDM effectively influences the increase of mental abilities of participating students.
