Which of the following statements concerning Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences is not correct?

Gardner’s theory describes musical and spatial intelligence as separate abilities, rather than claiming that musical intelligence depends on spatial intelligence. The other statements fit his theory: he draws on research from different areas of psychology, focuses on types of intelligence rather than ranking people’s intelligence levels, and allows that a person may have several intelligences. Therefore, the incorrect statement is “Gardner claims that musical intelligence is dependent on spatial intelligence.”
