Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

There are several forms of intelligences.

Solution :

The correct answer is: There are several forms of intelligences.

Explanation:

Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences suggests that intelligence is not a single, general ability (often measured by traditional IQ tests), but rather a collection of distinct and relatively independent modalities of intelligence.

Gardner identified several specific types of intelligence, including:
1. Linguistic intelligence
2. Logical-mathematical intelligence
3. Spatial intelligence
4. Musical intelligence
5. Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence
6. Interpersonal intelligence
7. Intrapersonal intelligence
8. Naturalistic intelligence

Therefore, the theory emphasizes that people possess different kinds of minds and learning styles, demonstrating that there are several forms of intelligences rather than just one unitary intelligence.
