Asked 3 months ago · Viewed 17 times
In the context of Howard Gardner's 'Theory of Multiple Intelligences', which of the following pairings of intelligence type and its corresponding field/profession is most appropriate and scientifically true?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Howard Gardner propounded the Theory of Multiple Intelligences in his 1983 book 'Frames of Mind'. Under this, he initially described 7 and later 8 types of intelligences. Individuals with 'Spatial Intelligence' are capable of mentally visualizing images, manipulating them, and accurately understanding the spatial world, such as sculptors, sailors, painters, and interior designers. In option (b), novelist/poet (associated with linguistic intelligence) is incorrectly paired with interpersonal intelligence. In option (c), scientist/mathematician are related to logical-mathematical intelligence. In option (d), dancer/athlete are related to bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, not naturalist intelligence. Thus, option (a) is the correct match.
