    In this paper the relation between high intellectual capabilities and information retrieval strategies are studied. The variables are: sex, age, educational level and creativity. Strategies were measured with the ACRA Scales (Román and Gallego, 1994, 2004). General intelligence was measured with the "g" Factor Test (Cattell and Cattell, 1990) and the Progressive Matrices Test (Raven, 1996). Creativity was analyzed using the TAEC Abreaction Test (de la Torre, 1991). Primary School and Compulsory Secondary Education students (aged 9-14) from Castilla y León (Spain) were chosen because of their high intellectual capability. Results show a significant association between general intelligence and information retrieval strategies. Age determines to some extent the use of strategies. The relation between a high intellectual capability and creativity only promotes the use of Written Answer strategies. A revision of evaluations of perceived use versus evaluations of real use of strategies is proposed.
