concept of intelligence by posing the theory of multiple intelligences (MI). Basically, he believed that people have multiple ways of thinking and learning and that such thinking and learning are culturally based and cannot necessarily be measured by a single intelligence test. Gardner argued that there are eight autonomous intelligences rather than one overarching single intelligence factor, which could be measured by standard psychometric instruments, such as an IQ test. Gardner's theory has transformed

The first part discusses the following issues: The theoretical part of Gardner's Multiple Intelligences Theory, multiple intelligences and learning styles, and reading comprehension. The second part is concerned with some previous studies that have been conducted in relation with applying the Multiple Intelligences Theory and reading comprehension
James Flynn both delve in the subject of intelligence and its controversies. Both authors criticize the current research that determines intelligence for all organisms and construct ideas to improve by arguing what has been neglected in this research. Their arguments are written for psychologists to consider other possibilities that compare brain cognition, such as socioeconomic backgrounds. In “Into the Unknown,” Warwick’s main claim is that intelligence is multidimensional in need to be put in
of intelligence is the best known compromise between the singular intelligence theory and the multiple intelligences theory. This model of intelligence proposes that there is a ‘g factor’ or general intelligence factor which was taken from Carroll’s original model. In the CHC model the general intelligence factor is made up of many different cognitive abilities. The piece that was taken from the Cattell&Horn model was the idea that there are two main types of intelligence: fluid intelligence and
“Hidden Intellectualism” response essay The measure of intelligence is not entirely from the knowledge given, but from the knowledge you have produced by yourself working together as a whole. Knowledge can come from anywhere in different forms and amounts. The author brings the truth to light about knowledge and where it can come from and the importance of accepting the different forms through examples. Like in “Hidden Intellectualism” in the book “They Say I say” written by Gerald Graff and Cathy
society today, we often regard intelligence as a numerical value that measures the intellect of an individual. However, it is believed that intelligence is more than just a number and that it is more than just a representation of the human brain. In the article The Sociological Imagination by James R. Flynn, Flynn focuses on the failure of sociological imagination due to the fact that psychologists often fail to consider the social context within human intelligence. In another article Into the Unknown

Abstract In this project we will first describe what Emotional Intelligence is. We will visit the definition of Emotional Intelligence; we will explain emotional intelligence in detail and will discuss the importance of EI in Job performance. Next, we will visit the arguments in favor of EI and the arguments against it. We have conducted a survey to know the Emotional Intelligence Quotient among management students. This constitutes the major part of our research. We will discuss the different attributes
Some will argue that human intelligence takes the form of multiple different mental abilities, rather than just one general type of mental ability. Howard Gardener of Harvard University pioneered this way of viewing intelligence as multiple entities as opposed to just one single overall IQ score. He called his theory multiple intelligences and set out to find evidence that humans do indeed possess a wide variety of intelligences and not just one single type.
