DMIT vs.Conventional Career Counselling
About DMIT: Dermatoglyphics refers to the branch of science which constitutes the study of the patterns i.e. prints of skin (dermal ridges) on the fingers, toes and the soles of human beings. Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence test is a biometric assessment of the individual’s finger prints to map his/her brain functioning. Conventional Career Counselling , on the other hand takes aid of standardised Psychometric Tests in order to identify an individual’s intelligence, interests, aptitude and personality. These factors are then carefully analysed and a summary of most suitable careers is drawn for the individual, keeping in mind his/her identified attributes. To briefly discuss the history of DMIT: in 1926, Harold Cummins proposed the term “Dermatoglyphics” for the study of fingerprints at the American Morphological Society. After this, Noel Jaquin researched and proposed that each fingerprint pattern corresponds to a specific type of personality, in the year 1958.
