The results showed that there are a weak correlation between physical intelligence and outstanding academic performance, and revealed a low level of physical intelligence according to the total score and dimensions. and confirmed the differences between the sexes (males/females) in physical intelligence according to the total score and dimensions, with the exception of the dimension of “balance in movement”.
