Estimates of Multiple Intelligences: A Study in Poland

Abstract

Abstract. Participants from Poland (N = 258) provided estimates of their own, their parents', and their grandparents' general and multiple intelligences. Males gave higher self-estimates than females on general, spatial, and musical intelligence. There was evidence of perceived generational differences in estimates of general intelligence, with participants rating themselves slightly higher than their parents, and their parents slightly higher than their grandparents. Regression analyses showed that the most consistent predictors of estimated general intelligence were verbal, mathematical, and intrapersonal intelligence. A comparison between Polish and British (N = 185) data revealed interesting cultural effects, primarily concerning father and mother estimates. Overall, the results were broadly in line with those of other studies, although several cultural differences are noted and discussed.
