Based on the theory of multiple intelligences by Gardner, most people exhibit:
a. intelligences that function in isolation.
b. a single intelligence.
c. one dominate intelligence.
d. all eight intelligences in different degrees.
I think it is b or d.
Those two answers are vastly different. Please check your text to find the correct answer.
From reading my text I find that the correct answer is d.
Right!
Based on the theory of multiple intelligences by Gardner, the correct answer is d) all eight intelligences in different degrees.
To arrive at this answer, we first need to understand Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. According to Gardner, there are eight different types of intelligence:
1. Verbal-Linguistic Intelligence: Being skilled with language, including speaking, writing, and reading.
2. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence: Being skilled in logical reasoning and problem-solving.
3. Visual-Spatial Intelligence: Having the ability to perceive visual information and understand spatial relationships.
4. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence: Having good control over one's body movements and physical coordination.
5. Musical Intelligence: Having a strong appreciation for music and being able to produce or understand it.
6. Interpersonal Intelligence: Being adept at understanding and interacting with others.
7. Intrapersonal Intelligence: Having a deep understanding of oneself, including emotions, desires, and motivations.
8. Naturalistic Intelligence: Having a strong connection and understanding of the natural world.
According to Gardner, individuals possess a unique combination of these intelligences, which can vary in degree from person to person. No single intelligence is dominant over others, and individuals can exhibit varying strengths and weaknesses in different intelligences.
Therefore, the correct answer is d) all eight intelligences in different degrees, as most people exhibit a combination of these intelligences to different extents.
