 DEFINITION

Intelligence has been defined in many ways:

the capacity for logic, understanding, self-
awareness, learning, emotional knowledge,
reasoning, planning, creativity, critical
thinking, and problem-solving. More
generally, it can be described as the ability to
perceive or infer information, and to retain it
as knowledge to be applied towards adaptive
behaviors within an environment or context.

 DIFFERENT KINDS OF INTELLIGENCE

BACK
 1. Naturalist Intelligence

Naturalist intelligence designates the human ability to

discriminate among living things (plants, animals) as well as
sensitivity to other features of the natural world (clouds, rock
configurations). This ability was clearly of value in our
evolutionary past as hunters, gatherers, and farmers; it
continues to be central in such roles as botanist or chef. It is
also speculated that much of our consumer society exploits the
naturalist intelligences, which can be mobilized in the
discrimination among cars, sneakers, kinds of makeup, and the
like.
BACK
 2. Musical Intelligence
Musical Intelligence: is the capacity to discern pitch,
rhythm, timbre, and tone. This intelligence enables us to
recognize, create, reproduce, and reflect on music, as
demonstrated by composers, conductors, musicians,
vocalist, and sensitive listeners. Interestingly, there is often
an affective connection between music and the emotions;
and mathematical and musical intelligences may share
common thinking processes. Young adults with this kind
of intelligence are usually singing or drumming to
themselves. They are usually quite aware of sounds others
may miss.
BACK
 3. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence
intelligence is the ability to calculate, quantify,
consider propositions and hypotheses, and
carry out complete mathematical operations. It
enables us to perceive relationships and
connections and to use abstract, symbolic
thought; sequential reasoning skills; and
inductive and deductive thinking patterns.
Logical intelligence is usually well developed
in mathematicians, scientists, and detectives.
Young adults with lots of logical intelligence
are interested in patterns, categories, and
relationships. They are drawn to arithmetic
problems, strategy games and experiments. BACK
 4. Existential Intelligence

Sensitivity and capacity to tackle

deep questions about human
existence, such as the meaning of
life, why we die, and how did we
get here.

BACK
 5. Interpersonal Intelligence

is the ability to understand and interact effectively with

others. It involves effective verbal and nonverbal
communication, the ability to note distinctions among
others, sensitivity to the moods and temperaments of others,
and the ability to entertain multiple perspectives. Teachers,
social workers, actors, and politicians all exhibit
interpersonal intelligence. Young adults with this kind of
intelligence are leaders among their peers, are good at
communicating, and seem to understand others’ feelings
and motives.
BACK
 6. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence

Bodily kinesthetic intelligence is the

capacity to manipulate objects and use
a variety of physical skills. This
intelligence also involves a sense of
timing and the perfection of skills
through mind–body union. Athletes,
dancers, surgeons, and crafts people
exhibit well-developed bodily
kinesthetic intelligence.
BACK
 7. Linguistic Intelligence

is the ability to think in words and to use language to

express and appreciate complex meanings. Linguistic
intelligence allows us to understand the order and meaning
of words and to apply meta-linguistic skills to reflect on
our use of language. Linguistic intelligence is the most
widely shared human competence and is evident in poets,
novelists, journalists, and effective public speakers. Young
adults with this kind of intelligence enjoy writing, reading,
telling stories or doing crossword puzzles.

BACK
 8. Intra-personal Intelligence

is the capacity to understand oneself and one’s thoughts and

feelings, and to use such knowledge in planning and directioning
one’s life. Intra-personal intelligence involves not only an
appreciation of the self, but also of the human condition. It is
evident in psychologist, spiritual leaders, and philosophers. These
young adults may be shy. They are very aware of their own
feelings and are self-motivated.

BACK
 9. Spatial Intelligence
is the ability to think in three dimensions.
Core capacities include mental imagery,
spatial reasoning, image manipulation,
graphic and artistic skills, and an active
imagination. Sailors, pilots, sculptors,
painters, and architects all exhibit spatial
intelligence. Young adults with this kind of
intelligence may be fascinated with mazes or
jigsaw puzzles, or spend free time drawing or
daydreaming.

 What is IQ?

A man named Alfred Binet lived in France during this

period and noticed that many children in school were
struggling, but he didn't think it was due to lack of
intelligence. So Binet made a very important
distinction between two different things that might lead
to poor school performance. He said that some
children will do badly because they simply aren't
intelligent, so there's not much that can be done to
directly help them improve their grades. However, he
said that other children have plenty of learning ability
and potential to do well, but they struggle simply
because of life circumstances. He said that these
children, who have a high learning ability, should be
distinguished from children who do badly in school
because of low intelligence

 The IQ Equation

Binet said that we need to know your mental age, which is your
cognitive abilities relative to what others can do of different ages. In
other words, what do you think an average five year old can do? Can
they read? Can they do math? What about the average ten year old?
Or how about someone who is 40 years old? Your mental age is what
you are capable of doing, scaled to what the average people of
different ages can do. In other words, if you're capable of doing what
an average 25-year old can do, then your mental age is 25. If you can
do what an average 10-year old can do, but not anything more
advanced than that, then your mental age is only 10.

BACK
 Count…
So now that we have these two scores - chronological age and mental
age - we want to compare them. If you are right on track, then your two
scores will perfectly match. If you are advanced, or very intelligent,
according to Binet, then your mental age will be bigger than your
chronological age. Say, if you are 20 years old right now, but you can do
what an average 30-year old can do, then you're 10 years ahead of
schedule, which Binet would say makes you very intelligent. The
opposite could also be true; maybe you're 20 years old, but can only do
what the average 10-year old can do. Binet would say that you are
cognitively delayed and therefore not intelligent based on IQ.

BACK
 Count 2
If your mental age and chronological age are a perfect match, you might get an
equation like this: 20 mental years old / 20 actual years old x 100 = 100. You can
see that an IQ score of 100 will always mean that a person is exactly where the
average person would be, so an IQ of 100 will always mean average intelligence for
IQ. If a person is mentally advanced, they might get a score like this: 30 mental
years old / 20 actual years old x 100 = 150. An IQ score of 150 would be very
impressive! Just as an example, the rumor is that Albert Einstein had an IQ of 160!
Any IQ higher than 100 means that the person is a little bit more intelligent than
average. Again, the opposite can also be true. Let's say we have a person who is a
little bit developmentally delayed; he or she might have an equation like this: 10
mental years old / 20 actual years old x 100 = 50. An IQ score less than 100 will
always mean that a person's mental abilities are not as good as the average person of
his or her age group.
