Figure 1. The Conceptual Model of Impact of Multiple Intelligence on Critical thinking of Nursing Students in UP
 The Conceptual framework of this research reflected entirely the nature of this
study. Figure 1 shows the conceptualization of the variables on the Impact of multiple
intelligence on critical thinking of nursing students in UP.
As presented in the diagram, the left box(input) holds profile of nursing students.
The second frame contains the degree of utilization of the nursing student’s intelligence
as to identification and recall of information, organization and selection of facts and

and development of opinions. As reflected in the middle box (process), this study is
conceptualized on the Impact of Multiple Intelligence on critical thinking of nursing
students on how they utilized it. Furthermore, level of nursing students critical thinking
