Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyse the level of multiple intelligences in students of the Adventist University of Bolivia 2021. The work is based on Gardner's (1983, 2015) Theory of Multiple Intelligences and relates it to White's (2012/1903) integral education. The research offers a quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional and descriptive approach. The sample consists of 293 participants out of a population of 424, (153 females and 140 males). The information was collected using an online Multiple Intelligences level questionnaire with an excellent level of reliability (α=0.913). The results achieved show that the students possess all eight multiple intelligences to varying degrees. Bodily-kinaesthetic intelligence reached the highest percentage (77%), while logical-mathematical intelligence the lowest (64%). In conclusion, it is necessary to deepen our knowledge of the multiple intelligences that can favour the integral development of university students.
