Abstract
From the Self-Efficacy Inventory for Multiple Intelligences (IAMI), developed in Argentina by Pérez, Beltramino and Cupani (2003), we present a shortened adaptation of this self-report for Spanish adolescents (IAMI-M40). IAMI evaluates the self-efficacy that adolescents have about the different multiple intelligences (IIMM) proposed by Gardner (1999). In a sample of Spanish secondary school students 11 to 19 years (n = 313), its fluid (PMA-R), crystallized (16-PF-R), and emotional intelligence (TEIQue-ASF) and their level of IIMM by an Spanish adaptation of IAMI was assessed. Exploratory factor analysis of the Spanish adaptation of IAMI identified eight factors for each type of intelligence according to the Gardner’s (1999) model, holding 40 items of the 69 original. The results support the reliability and convergent validity of IAMI-M40.
