| The present study explores the relationship between the fourth-year students' multiple intelligences and their academic achievement as foreign learners of English. The subjects involved in the study are 63 fourth –year students in the department of English, college of Education for Humanities, University of Basra, Iraq. The researchers employ the Teele-Biro Inventory for Multiple Intelligences (T-BIMI) to identify the subjects' sets of intelligences in addition to their grades in the first term of the academic-year 2012-2013, as an indicator to their academic achievement. The study hypothesis states that the subjects' sets of intelligences affect their academic achievement as foreign learners of English, and that the linguistic and logical –mathematical intelligences are the most influential kinds among the others. The SPSS computer program (version 17.0) and Pearson's correlation are used to do the statistical calculations. | ||
