Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences proposes that there are eight different types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. The theory argues that intelligence is the ability to solve problems and create products that are valued within a particular cultural context. Each type of intelligence represents a different skill set and potential area of cognitive strength or weakness.
