Outline Gardner`s theory of multiple intelligence The psychometric theory has been criticised by Gardner, he said that there is not just one kind of intelligence. Gardner proposed that there are eight separate kinds of intelligence, she referred to these as domains. He believed that each of these domains act as a separate system in the brain. These domains are linguistic which is the spoken language, logical/mathematical which is abstract thought and the ability to reason, special which is a real world ability and the mental rotation of images, musical which is the creation and appreciation of music, bodily/kinaesthetic which is fine motor skills, intrapersonal which is the understanding of other people’s feelings and the final domain is natural which is understanding the natural world. The first three of these domains (linguistic, logical and special) are recognised in the traditional intelligence testing, however the last five are new concepts in terms of intelligence.
The Judging-Perceiving (JP) scale measures how one chooses to approach life, preferring order and rules as opposed to flexibility and spontaneity. Next we have the eight raw scores each person receives, that are the scores on the two opposing poles of the four scales, can be divided people into 16 possible rational categories or types.. Although an individual can learn to access any of the eight functions (E or I, S or N, T or F, and J or P), preferences generally yield a persistent cognitive style. The MBTI is designed to enhance self-awareness of natural strengths, communication preferences, work styles, and opportunities for growth (Kennedy &
This occurred through surveys constructed and taken by a general college population of which provided substantive information. After analyzing the research, the two part hypothesis of significant correlation between positive traits yet non-significance for neuroticism, as well an increased rating for mates rather than self in positive categories and a decreased rating for mates concerning neuroticism were proven to be correct. Keywords: personality test, mate, self-reports, big-five, relationships A Study of the Relationship Between Self and Desired Mate Personality Testing Regarding the Big-Five Inventory (BFI) Factor of Personality Test Personality testing is a unique additive to scientific testing as it allows for the capability of showing a self-rated perspective of personal character traits. Furthermore, an individual not only possesses the quality of depicting their own personality, but also reporting the traits they ideally desire in a mate via the same method (Figuerdo,
Jimena de la Peza The Persuit of Happiness Review What is the pursuit of happiness? Which is the best way to achieve happiness? Jonathan Haidt gives an answer to these questions in his book “The Happiness Hypothesis” covering religious, psychological, philosophical, and scientific experiments and thoughts. He finds “modern truth in ancient wisdom” by connecting his research with the theories of important thinkers from the past like Plato, Buddha, and Freud, and he proves the importance of positive psychology no matter what year we live in. The purpose of this book is to teach and promote ways of achieving happiness by learning to control what he calls “the elephant” and dealing with the unconscious and emotional part of the brain.
One of these is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). MBTI is a questionnaire formulated to psychologically categorize people into one of sixteen personality types. According to Isabel Briggs Myers, of the Myers and Briggs Foundation, states that, “The essence of the theory is that much seemingly random variation in the behavior is actually quite orderly and consistent, being due to basic differences in the ways individuals prefer to use their perception and judgment.” That being said, it is extremely important to know and understand the innate differences in peoples behavior at a fundamental level. For example; just knowing whether someone is an introvert or an extrovert could help a leader to know who to move into a group setting verses an isolated setting or individual type of task.
Kaitlin Caoili Mr. Boyd AP Lang 29 September 2014 The Triple Package In the article “What Drives Success” Amy Chua and Jed discuss three traits that lead to material success. These traits include: superiority complex, insecurity, and impulse control. Together, these qualities create the Triple Package. Some may argue that, alone, these traits could potentially be damaging and that these traits must be inherited. However, when properly used, the Triple Package leads to success and can be efficiently self-taught.

If this were true than Holland’s athletes would all tend toward the same career. Hence, a more expansive view of career selection might be more appropriate for athletes. I thin that other system might actually help athletes better than Holland’s materials. I have already written about the possible use of Ann Roe’s system, but in my A-B-C program the work of Ginzberg’s
People’s life success and practical knowledge are also determining factors while measuring their intelligence because they need to possess survival skills when they encounter stressful and challenging situations. This is smartness rather than intelligence as only smart people can survive or take an advantage of what he undergoes even if they are faced with challenging situations. In this respect, this essay will examine the concept of smartness by referring to the articles titled Intelligence Considered, written by Phil Yam and Theory of Multiple intelligences and Intelligence: Knowns and Unknowns. Some people claim that IQ tests determine smartness. According to this claim, IQ level is closely related to smartness of a person.
Answer: There are 8 hallmarks of scientific research which are discussed below which will be analyzed in detail: a) Purposiveness: The purpose of the research is to identify the problems that the customers are facing related to their residential telephone lines and seeking the company to address the problem and take corrective action. So, the purposiveness of the research is clear and explicitly stated. b) Rigor: A good theoretical base and a sound methodological design adds rigor to a purposive study. The research has developed a theoretical base but the detailed methodological steps are not followed as the problem has to be attended very quickly. The researcher has taken a small sample of only 100 respondents, who might not represent the population correctly.
