Howard Gardner added Existential intelligence to his theory of multiple intelligences.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, he added Existential intelligence to his list of intelligences. This type of intelligence reflects a person's ability to use intuition, thought, and meta-cognition to ask (and answer) deep questions about human existence.
