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.
