Theorists

Howard Gardner propsed a theory of multiple inteligences in his 1983 book Frames Of Mind. It was a model of intelligence that differentiates intelligence into specific 'modalities', rather than seeing it dominated by a single general ability.
In his theory he argues that there are a wide range of abilities and only very weak correlations among them. For example, the theory claims that a child who learns to multiply easily is not necessarily more intelligent than a child who has more difficulty within the task.
