The influence of multiple intelligences on learning styles in teaching and learning

The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationships between the multiple intelligences and learning styles. The quantitative approach was the method used in the research. A sample of freshman and sophomore students as a non- random systematic sample was selected to be investigated in the research. A structured questionnaire was used to gather the primary data from the students in the study. Chi-square test for independence is used to explore the relationship between multiple intelligences and learning styles’ categorical variables. Based on multiple intelligences-learning styles crosstabs outputs, there is an association between multiple intelligences dimensions: studying, problem- solving, equipment functioning, subject choosing, and telling a story and visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. According to Pearson Chi-Square values as well as on values of Cramer’s V there is an association between multiple intelligences and learning styles. Maximum 10-15 lines.
