9 Types of Intelligence

 

In 1983 an American developmental psychologist Howard Gardener described 9 types of intelligence: 

 

Naturalist (naturesmart)

Musical (soundsmart)

Logical-mathematical (number/reasoning smart)

Existential (lifesmart)

Interpersonal (people smart)

Bodily-kinesthetic (body smart)

Linguistic (wordsmart)

Intra-personal (self smart)

Spatial (picturesmart)

 

What other scientists thought were just soft-skills, such as interpersonal skills,Gardener realized were types of intelligence.

 

It makes sense. Just as being a math whiz gives you the ability to understand the world, so does being “people smart” give you the same ability, just from a different perspective.

 

Not knowing math you may not calculate the rate at which the universe is expanding,but you are likely to have the skills to find the right person who will.

 

20 years after Gardener’s book came out there is still debate whether talents other than math and language are types of intelligence or just skills.

 

His book questions what we consider a good education, what we consider talent, and how much control one has to acquire them.
