Synopsis

The paper examines Howard Gardner’s idea that there are multiple intelligences (MI theory). MI theory identifies some eight or nine types of intelligence: not only the logico-mathematical and linguistic kinds measured by IQ, but, also musical, spatial, bodily-kinaesthetic, intrapersonal, interpersonal, to which have now been added naturalist and possibly existential intelligences. It asks the question: is there good evidence that these intelligences exist? Or are they a myth?
