individual’s abilities and career orientation. To date, the existing measures of individual multiple intelligences
are lacking of psychometric properties that make them less reliable in measuring the intended constructs.
Therefore, HAMBA MI Scale was developed and tested in order to overcome the weaknesses in the existing
measures. The results of factor analysis using 857 sets of responses from students of one public university in
Malaysia indicate the existence of nine factors, which are consistent with the original conceptualization,
signifying construct validity. The nine factors were then regressed on Career Orientation variables that comprise
Pure Challenge, Security/ Stability Autonomy, Entrepreneurial/ Creativity, General Managerial Competencies,
and Work-Life Balance. The results indicate that different MI dimensions contribute to the explanation of
variance in different Career Orientations variables, indicating criterion validity of the instrument. The
implications of the study are discussed. <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={İbrahim Güran YUMUŞAK}
