Concept Of Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Test
1. AN ITRODUCTION TO DERMATOGLYPHICS
The study of Dermatoglyphics can be traced back to almost 200 years of
research. This study has been proven with evidence in anthropology, genetics,
medicine and statistics to decode human’s innate ability (inborn characteristic).
It started in 1823 when scientists discovered the relevance of fingerprints and
multiple-intelligence in human. Medical research verified that the formation of
fingerprint started at week 13 of embryonic stage and completed at week 19.
Both the brain development and dermal ridges are growing simultaneously during
that stage too. Therefore there is a direct co-relation between the development
of the brain and fingerprint.
Some countries such as Russia, China and Taiwan adopt dermatoglyphics
technology in areas of sports, education, human resource management,
recruitment, entertainment and even talent scouting.
Unfortunately, most of us have little sense of our talents and strengths,
much less the ability to build our lives around them. Instead, guided
by our parents, teachers, managers or influenced by media, peers
and friends, we become numbed and blinded and practice our
weaknesses and spend our lives in mediocrity , while our strengths lie
dormant and neglected. This vicious cycle keep on going as we use
the similar way to raise our next generation.
2. THE BENEFITS OF THUMBRULE-DMIT
ThumbRule has a Scientific Approach to discover the innate abilities and talent
of an individual, particularly children before the age of 16.
STEP 1
Understand your child’s innate characteristic
Parents often misunderstood their children simply because they do
not know their inborn characteristic (curious, rebellious, persistent
and etc.)
To know how to communicate effectively with your child based on
their inborn communication style
To understand and to develop an effective interaction method
with your child
For adults, this test can be used for self evaluation and compatibility
with your spouse or business partner.
3. STEP 2
Know your child’s inborn learning style or ability
To know exactly the natural learning style a child posses
o A kinesthetic learner expresses his feeling/thought through body
language and prefers to learn/memorize through operation and
movement
o A visual learner has sharp observation/visual differentiation and prefers
to learn through observation and reading
o An auditory learner prefers to learn through auditory sense/oral
practice and able to assimilate, organize and arrange oral information
To recommend parents to place their child in courses or pre-school
where its curriculum suits the child’s inborn learning style (i.e.
Kinesthetic learner learns best at Montessori due to its activity-
based method)
To eliminate the ‘trial and error’ situation where parents send their
child to a certain class (i.e. art class or music class) without knowing
if the child is capable to comprehend
For adults, this test will reveal to them the strength they possess and to
guide them to perform effectively at work.
4. STEP 3
Discover your child’s inborn talent potential
Every child is unique and possess different inborn talent
To use a scientifically proven method to reveal a child’s inborn
potential (strength, weakness, left-brain dominant or right-brain
dominant)
To give parents an insight into their child and to groom them
effectively to the talents they possess
To enable parents to focus on their child’s strength and to eliminate
the ‘guessing game’ on their talent
A dermatoglyphics report is very useful in assisting parents to
choose a course for their child (arts, music or sports)
Dermatoglyphics report is also a very important guideline for a child
to refer when choosing an university programme that best suit their
inborn abilities and potential
After graduation, the dermatoglyphics report will again be helpful in
giving recommendation to chose their career path
As for adults, this test can be a very good reference for those who
intend to make a career change, to venture into new business or to pick
up new skills/education
