This document discusses theories of multiple intelligence and intelligence quotient (IQ). It outlines Howard Gardner's theory of eight multiple intelligences: interpersonal, intrapersonal, logical/mathematical, verbal/linguistic, bodily/kinesthetic, musical, visual/spatial, and naturalist. Each intelligence is defined and examples of related careers are provided. The document also explains that IQ is a measure of cognitive ability derived from test scores that compares a person's mental age to their actual age. IQ scores are classified on a scale from profound weakness to giftedness.
