Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences argues against the idea of a single, unchangeable measure of intelligence (general intelligence or "g factor"). Instead, he proposes that individuals have multiple intelligences that can be developed and nurtured through education. Thus, the recommendation to focus on general intelligence as a single, stable factor contradicts his views.
