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
A.Spatial – Therapist
B.Intra-personal – Salesperson
C.Linguistic – Sculptor
D.Bodily-kinesthetic – Athlete✓ Correct
Explanation
According to Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence involves using one's body skillfully and is exemplified by athletes, dancers, and surgeons. Spatial intelligence relates to visualizing space (architects, sculptors), not therapists. Intra-personal intelligence involves self-understanding, not salesmanship (which is inter-personal). Linguistic intelligence relates to language use (writers, poets), not sculpting. Hence, only the bodily-kinesthetic–athlete pairing is correct.
