RELATIONSHIP OF MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES AND ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF GRADE SIX LEARNERS AT SAN ROQUE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, SAN LUIS PAMPANGA

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the relationship of multiple intelligences to academic performance of grade six learners at San Roque Elementary School, San Luis Pampanga. The researchers administered the survey questionnaire adapted from the research of Armstrong (2000). The survey included questions on the (1) respondents’ profile such as gender and socio-economic status; (2) the respondents’ multiple intelligences in terms of: a) Verbal-Linguistic; b) Logical-Mathematical c) Spatial-Visual d) Bodily-kinesthetic e) Musical; f) Intrapersonal; g) Interpersonal; h) Naturalistic; i) Existential; (3) the academic performance of the respondents; and (4) the relationship between the type of multiple intelligences and academic performance of respondents. Based on the findings of this study, there is a significant relationship between Multiple Intelligences and Academic Performance. Therefore, it is suggested that future researchers need to conduct the same concept of the study but of different grade level or in other schools.
