My mother was "slow" as a result of malnutrition during the Great Depression, but she more than made up for that with emotional depth.<br /><br />Wilber's contention that the cognitive line is necessary but not sufficient for the development of other lines is true, but partial. Some lines are not at all dependent on the cognitive line, such as emotional development or intuition, both of which are body-based and not brain-based (and probably true for some others that are not based on intellect).<br /><br />Peace!william harrymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06981478282688361274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372876601826078687.post-82743059268524246672010-01-05T07:10:37.695-07:002010-01-05T07:10:37.695-07:00Specifically on the way M.I. is used in Wilber'...Specifically on the way M.I. is used in Wilber's AQAL theory (which Gardner doesn't approve of, as far as I know): Is cognitive intelligence really "necessary but not sufficient" for all the other intelligences? I have a hunch that there are some people who consistently excell in other lines (for example emotional intelligence) while their cognitive intelligence is not necessarily on that same altitude. I think I've seen that for example with mentally disabled people, which is the area of work I do. I've seen some of them show remarkable intuition and some kind of emotional "knowledge". Which would mean: as their cognitive capacity at some stage of development stalled, they had to rely, for example, on emotional intelligence to orient themselves.
