The population consists of Tehrani first, second, and third-grade teachers in the school year of 2020 from which, 318 teachers were selected by available sampling. Results: Explanatory factor analysis showed eight-component-structure based on generalized least squares and equamax rotation is the best structure. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated explanatory factor analysis has good fit indexes. Besides, the subscales have sufficient internal consistency and range between 0/79 (Musical Intelligence) to 0/92 (Interpersonal Intelligence).
