The theory of multiple intelligences was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, professor of education at Harvard University. It suggests that the traditional notion of intelligence, based on I.Q. testing, is far too limited. Instead, Dr. Gardner proposes eight different intelligences to account for a broader range of human potential in children and adults. These intelligences are:

•Linguistic intelligence("word smart")
People with Linguistic intelligence are naturally good with writing or speaking and memorization.
•Logical-mathematical intelligence("number/reasoning smart")
People with Logical intelligence are driven by logic and reasoning.
•Spatial intelligence("body smart")
People with Kinesthetic intelligence love movement, have good motor skills and are aware of their bodies.
•Musical intelligence("music smart")
People with musical intelligence are musically gifted and have a "good ear" for rhythm and composition.
•Interpersonal intelligence("people smart")
People with Interpersonal intelligence are good with people and thrive in social interactions.
•Intrapersonal intelligence("self smart")
People with intrapersonal intelligence are adept at looking inward.
•Naturalist intelligence("nature smart")
People with Naturalist intelligence have a sensitivity to and appreciation for nature.


So which type are you the most? You can either try to find it out on your own or you can do a test, there are many of them on the internet. I think this is much more interesting than the IQ test/poll becouse it doesn't split the people in more and less inteligent, it just describes your kind of "genius".

have a nice day

wow....did they break up the big words for people who aren't "word smart?"

Though just by making this poll, you'll make Gardner want to turn in his grave.

I can't believe it took until 1983 to develop this theory.

other people thought about it but never published a work paper for it. So....the lesson here, wirte down your ideas, get data, and publish it.

it should be People with intrapersonal intelligence are adept at looking inward.

Visual/Spatial : 78%

Musical : 75%

Verbal/Linguistic :72%

Intrapersonal : 66%

Logical/Mathematical : 59%

Naturalist : 56%

Bodily/Kinesthetic : 56%

Interpersonal : 53%

That sums me up pretty well. I like art and music and used to study linguistics. Also I'd rather work alone most of the time.

I am not suprised on the logical and mathematical part... actually.. it should probably be lower...

And yes on the "I am very well-coordinated ..." question I answered rarely.

I guess it describes who I am outside of the internet. I agree with parts of it though, I like to write and work with words rather then nature and exercise

Fun little test, you guys should try the Personality Type test as well.
