Abstract

Multiple Intelligences, as instances of non-public traits, are believed to be fastened. Gardner’s theory considers intelligence as a changeable construct which could be increased through education in acceptable contexts. The present study aimed at investigating the reliability of a newly formulated multiple intelligences assessment tool used in school going children. The required data were collected using Multiple Intelligences Assessment Tool (M.I.A.T). The obtained data were analyzed using repeated measures one-way ANOVA procedures. Results showed the statistical reliability of M.I.A.T. amongst 6 to 14 year old children.
