Which of the following is a correctly matched pair of type of intelligence and end-state performance possibilities as per Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences ?
Types of Intelligence - End-state performance possibility
Answer: D
The correctly matched pair is Bodily-kinesthetic - Athlete.
In Howard Gardner's theory, each intelligence is linked to the adult roles in which it is fully expressed, its end-state performances. Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, the skilled use of the body, shows in athletes and dancers.
The other pairs are mismatched. Spatial intelligence is linked to navigators, sculptors and architects, not therapists; a therapist draws on interpersonal intelligence. A salesperson relies on interpersonal intelligence, understanding other people, whereas intra-personal intelligence is self-knowledge. Linguistic intelligence is the end-state of poets and journalists, while the sculptor belongs with spatial intelligence.
