Talent Measurement and Its Use
In everyday life both related to education and employment, it is often found that two people have the same general level of ability. But they show different looks or achievements.
According to Crow and Crow (1973) failure of intelligence tests to predict success in employment predict success in certain jobs because intelligence tests are intended to measure ability or readiness in general without putting pressure on specific abilities.
Thus, efforts arise to measure specific abilities of a person in more detail, so that it can be used to find out the individual differences between two or more people who generally have abilities (intelligence) specifically arranged to predict a person's special abilities or talents called a test talent.
From the results of aptitude tests we have not been able to determine with certainty someone's talent, because the results will only give us an idea of strengths and weaknesses in terms of capabilities. Aptitude tests cannot determine exactly what jobs or careers we have to go through, nor can they provide answers to specific questions.

A Nurse's Opinion Regarding Talent
According to a nurse about talent, talent is an ability that is in a person that must be developed in order to be useful for yourself or others. Talent is not entirely derived from a person directly but can be obtained through education or special training, for example in the health field, if someone has the desire to become a nurse must follow nursing education and training according to predetermined operational standards. Being a nurse is not only a talent that must be possessed but also a will and hard work.

Talent in the Nursing Profession
In the nursing process many have procedures that must be fulfilled in accordance with operational standards, therefore a nurse must have the knowledge and abilities or talents that must exist in a nurse in order to be called sabgai professional nurses who are responsible. Therefore talent is really needed to support a nurse's performance in order to be able to show an action that can be accepted and trusted by clients, both individuals, groups, and society.

Sample case
A nurse is assigned to a nurse A hospital in a nursery. In the room many children affected by DHF, these children often cry when they see a nurse who will go into the room to check especially if it will be injected. So a nurse must think of ways to keep the children from crying.
The nurses took the initiative to provide toys or other objects that the children liked or were given more love so that the children were not afraid. In this case nurses are required to develop their talents so that the children do not feel afraid when they will be cared for by the nurses.

Conclusion
Talent is a condition or a quality that belongs to an individual that allows that individual to develop in the future.
So thus, it can be said that humans differ from each other in various ways, especially in their talents. This difference does not only occur due to factors carried from birth (heredity) but also occurs due to the influence of family and environment as well as the values adopted. So everyone will have different talents and potentials.
