Levels of Intelligence

1) Naturalistic Intelligence: refers to a human being’s sensitivity to the natural world. This is the ability to differentiate among nature’s different features such as animal, plants, rock configurations, cloud configurations, and other such things.

   2)  Musical Intelligence: While other people move towards nature, there are also those who tend to be drawn to the musical arts. These “musical smart” people are usually more sensitive to sounds that most individuals aren’t aware of. The intelligence involved with this ability to recognise tone, rhythm, timbre, and pitch is musical intelligence.

  3) Logical-Mathematical Intelligence: This type of intelligence equips a person with the ability to calculate and carry out mathematical problems as well as mull over hypotheses and propositions. Those who are “number or reasoning smart” tend to easily recognize relationships and patterns, demonstrate sequential reasoning skills, and generate and use abstract thoughts.

 4) Existential Intelligence: Even though other people go about their daily lives without devoting much thought to their existence, people with existential intelligence tend to think over “deep” thoughts, these thoughts may include the why’s and how’s of life and death. Individuals who are particularly keen to their own existence are drawn to exploring such questions like why are people born, how do they get here, and why do they eventually die.
