We will now introduce you to Dermatoglyphics technique in brief:

Dermatoglyphics (from ancient Greek derma = skin, glyph = carving) is the scientific study of fingerprints. The term was coined by Dr. Harold Cummins, the father of American fingerprint analysis.

 The process of fingerprint identification had been used for several hundred years now.

 Scientists researched skin ridge patterns and established that the fingerprint patterns actually develop in the womb and are fully formed by the fourth month of pregnancy.

 The main thrust of scientific Dermatoglyphics research has been directed into genetic research and the diagnosis of chromosomal defects.

 Over the last thirty years or so, more than four thousand medical research papers have been written on the significance of skin-ridge patterns!

 Significant investigations have been carried out into the Dermatoglyphics indicators of congenital heart disease,  cancer, intestinal disorders, A lzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, autism as well as other forms of mental illnesses. 

 Most of this research has only been published in International medical journals.

Prof. Howard Gardner

 Senior Director at Harvard, Professor of Cognition and Education

 Author of more than 20 books, Most famous being one on “Multiple Intelligences” called

 “Frames o f Mind” Has 26 Honorary degrees & was selected in 

“Top 100 Influential Thinkers in the World” 

After years of extensive research he defined 8 intelligences. The multiple intelligences he defined are

Visual-Spatial Intelligence

The ability to think in pictures and visualize future results

The ability to imagine things in your mind’s eye

The ability to perceive spatial information

Those with strong spatial intelligence are often proficient at solving puzzles. This intelligence is high in artists, photographers, pilots, painters and architects.

Verbal Linguistic Intelligence

The ability to read, write, and communicate with words

The ability to use language to express one’s thoughts and to understand other people orally or in writing

They tend to learn best by reading, taking notes, listening to lectures, and discussion and debate.

This intelligence is high in writers, lawyers, philosophers, journalists, politicians and teachers.

Intra Personal Intelligence

The ability to distinguish among an individual’s own feelings, to accurate mental models of themselves, and use them to make decisions about life.

The capacities to know one’s self, Careers which suit those with this intelligence include philosophers, psychologists, theologians, writers and scientists.

Logical Mathematical Intelligence

The ability to reason and calculate 

Enables individuals to use and appreciate abstract relations

The ability to manipulate numbers, quantities, operations, etc.

Many scientists, mathematicians, engineers, doctors and economists function in this level of intelligences.

Naturalistic Intelligence

Allows one to distinguish among, classify, and use features of the environment

The ability to discriminate among living things and to see patterns in the natural world

Careers which suit those with this intelligence include wild Life Photographer, naturalists, conservationists, gardeners and farmers.

Inter Personal Intelligence

Enables individuals to recognize and make distinctions among others’ feelings and intentions

The ability to work effectively with others and display empathy

Careers which suit those with this intelligence include politicians, managers, teachers, and social workers.

Bodily Kinesthetic Intelligence

Allows individuals to use all or part of one’s body to create products, solve problems, or present ideas and emotions.

Using the body in highly differentiated ways for expressive, recreational, or goal directed purposes

People who have this intelligence usually enjoy acting or performing, and in general they are good at building and making things.

Careers which suit those with this intelligence include athletes, dancers, actors, surgeons, builders and soldiers.

Musical Rhythmic Intelligence

As you know, the Indian education system, focuses more on cramming information in the minds of our children, rather than giving them true knowledge, 

which they can use to shape a successful career. Our system also overlooks the specific learning needs of each child, 

who is unique, resulting in immense stress.

Shockingly, above 12,000 students commit suicides in India due to exam related stress. 

This number is alarming and makes us wonder where our system is going wrong!!!!!!!

 

You, as parents need to take an active role in understanding the special intrinsic potential of your child, 

and design suitable learning methods around your child needs. 

DMI Assessment technique has been developed by scientists and research experts from World renowned universities  and is based on knowledge from Genetics, Embryology, Dermatoglyphics, Psychology and Neuroscience.
