The Role of Multiple Intelligences in EFL learners’ Lexical and Grammatical Achievement: A Personalized Learning Facilitator?

One of the pivotal factors in language learning is the critical role of intelligence, which has been steadily undisputed. Therefore, the present study aimed to examine the relationship between MIs (Multiple Intelligences) and vocabulary and grammar exam scores. ۱۹۱ intermediate EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners participated in this study. All the participants were administered the McKenzie's MIs questionnaire and the ۹th graders' English final exam. The findings of multiple regression analysis revealed a significant association between logical and linguistic intelligences with vocabulary and grammar exam scores. It was concluded that learners' intelligence typically plays a vital role in their pedagogical path and can facilitate a purposeful Personalized Learning (PL) to enhance the quality of language pedagogy. The findings of the current study might have valuable implications for EFL teachers and learners, and relevant educational stakeholders.
