Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, existential intelligence is the ability to contemplate deep questions about human existence, such as the meaning of life and death, and to understand one's role in the larger scheme of things. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Emotional intelligence is also one of the types of intelligence proposed by Gardner, but it is already recognized as one of the original eight types. Analytical intelligence refers to the ability to analyze and process information logically, while savant syndrome is a condition in which a person with a developmental disability has one or more areas of exceptional ability or expertise.
