Persons with visual-spatial intelligence can sense themselves in space and have a good sense of direction. Visual-spatial intelligence also includes the artistic and representational abilities of painters, sculptors, and artists. Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence is the ability to control bodily movements and to handle objects skillfully. Dancers, athletes, and actors exhibit bodily-kinesthetic intelligence. New Forms of Intelligence Garner proposed that there might be many more forms of intelligence, as yet undiscovered.
Naturalistic intelligence is the ability to understand the world of nature.
It includes the ability to relate to, categorize, comprehend, and explain various aspects of nature including plants, animals, and settings. In the coming years, Gardner's list of intelligences may continue to grow. Attention to Individual Differences Crucial to the theory of multiple intelligences is the understanding that each of the areas of intelligence is universal. Each has its foundations in biology and we all exhibit at least small amount of each intelligence. However, we differ in the degree to which we manifest each intelligence and how we express each.
