There are eight vital kinds of Intelligences by which one person differs from another. Though we have eight
intelligences but each one is developed in a particular way that makes us unique and different from each other.
Multiple intelligence theory asserts that individuals with a high level of aptitude in a particular type of intelligence do
not necessarily have a similar aptitude in any other type of intelligence. In 1983, Harvard University (USA) professor
Howard Gardner started writing his book Frames of Mind: the Theory of Multiple Intelligences with some simple but
very powerful questions, viz., Are talented chess players, violinists, and athletes 'intelligent' in their respective
disciplines? Why these and other abilities are not accounted for on traditional IQ tests? Why is the term intelligence
limited to such a narrow range of human endeavors of Mathematical, Logical & Linguistic talents? So, According to
this theory human intelligences can be broadly divided into eight (8) categories.
Walter Mckenzie (Multiple Intelligence Survey: 1999 - 2013) breaks down the eight intelligences suggested by
Dr. Howard Gardner and categorises them into three domains that serve as an organiser for understanding the
fluid relationship of the intelligences and how the intelligences work in combination with one another.

The Analytical domain consists of the logical, musical and naturalist intelligence. These are the
intelligences that promote the processes of analysing and incorporating data in accumulating
knowledge.
37.24
The interactive domain consists of the verbal, interpersonal and kinesthetic intelligence. These
are the intelligences that learners typically employ to express themselves and explore their
environment.

The introspective domain consists of the intrapersonal and visual intelligences. These are the
intelligences that promote learning through own experiences and beliefs.

Holland Codes represent a set of personality types described in a theory of careers and vocational choice formulated by
psychologist John L. Holland. Holland’s Theory argued that ‘the choice of a vocation is an expression of personality’ and that
the six factor typology he articulated could be used to describe both persons and work environments. His typology provides
an interpretative structure for a number of different vocational interest surveys, including the two measures he developed:
The Vocational Preference Inventory and the Self Directed Search. His model has been adopted by the U.S. Department of
Labor for categorizing jobs relative to interests.
The six personality and work environment types described by Holland are usually referred to by their first letters, taken
together – RIASEC: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising and Conventional. The six dimensions of this RIASEC
model are actually derived from evaluation of the following 12 factors. Recognising your main interests should enable you
to better understand your aspirations and professional potential
