Do you think IQ tests provide the best indication of intelligence? You may be surprised to know that some scientists don't think so.
As a matter of fact, one scientist came up with a new theory about intelligence more than twenty years ago. Dr. Howard Gardner of Harvard University proposed that people were much more complex than standard testing suggested. He argued that traditional intelligence tests favored logical and mathematical people, but that different people had different strengths.
The intelligence types were:
- Linguistic and verbal intelligence: good with words
- Logical intelligence: good with math and logic
- Spatial intelligence: good with pictures
- Body/movement intelligence: good with activities
- Musical intelligence: good with rhythm
- Interpersonal intelligence: good with communication
- Intrapersonal intelligence: good with analyzing things
- Naturalist intelligence: good with understanding natural world
