Activity 3: Learning Profile Inventory

Complete the "multiple intelligences survey" handout.
Choose 3 of the following tests. Complete them and save a screenshot or screen snip image of your results.
- Tonedeaf Test
  - The original tonedeaf test, taken by over one million people. I created this test while working at the music and neuroimaging lab at Beth Israel/Harvard Medical School during medical school. In our research, we were looking for neuro-anatomical correlates of tonedeafness and we used this test as a quick screening test to see if subjects might be suitable for our study. After you take this test you can compare your results to tens of thousands of other subjects to see how "tonedeaf" (or "musical") you really are.
- Adaptive Pitch Test
  - This test measures your pitch perception abilities by adapting to your responses: The better you are, the closer and closer the stimuli will become. Like the tonedeaf test above, this test was developed while working as a researcher at the Music and Neuroimaging laboratory at Beth Israel/Harvard Medical School. At the end of the test, you will be presented with population statistics on over 11,000 subjects who have anonymously submitted their scores.
- AMVI
  - What is AMVI? Associative Musical Visual Intelligence (or "amvi" for short) is a type of intelligence that's difficult enough to define, let alone test. Many creative people can associate across sensory domains: they "hear" hints of shapes and can "taste" the essense of colors. At its most extreme this phenomenon is called synesthesia. However, I believe that creative people subconsciously employ elements of synesthesia every day when attempting to think of things in new ways. This is a logic test that attempts to measure one's ability to correlate musical phrases with abstract shapes and symbols.
- Rhythm Test
  - This test is very similar to the tonedeaf test above: You will hear a series of two rhythmical phrases and be asked to decide if they are the same or different. Unlike the tonedeaf test, however, the differences between the two phrases are only rhythmical. At the end of the test, you can compare your performance to that of over 7,000 subjects who had previously submitted their scores. Of all of the musical tests, this one is one of the more difficult ones as it's much harder for an untrained individual to remember complex
