Abstract

The topic of my project is the choice of higher education and subsequently a profession. My topic is very much related to the psychology of decision-making. In it I want to explore how and when people determine what they want to do in life. My project is based on the well-known theory of multiple intelligence. Multiple intelligence theory proposes to differentiate human intelligence into specific forms of intelligence, rather than defining intelligence as a single, general ability. Gardner argues that there is a wide range of cognitive abilities and that there is only very little correlation between them. This fundamentally deeper understanding may lead to what outwardly looks like slowness but may in fact conceal a mathematical intelligence potentially higher than that of the child who memorizes the multiplication table quickly, despite a less profound understanding of the multiplication process itself. In this project, my goal was to analyze the psychology of a person, the psychology of their decision-making. And to simplify the process of understanding and realizing for oneself, as I believe it can influence and possibly even change the destiny of a person if they make a better decision at an earlier age. In this way one can help people not to waste time and live a better life.
