Abstract
Recent studies have shown that the educational approaches based on the Theory of Multiple Intelligences are efficient and should be applied frequently in the classroom. Through this study, we set out to determine which are the parents' opinions regarding the optimum age to discover the configuration of the profile of intelligence of children and adolescents. Thus, we carried out an online survey. The online questionnaire was filled in by 507 parents. The study revealed that parents are interested to discover the dominant intelligences of their children, in order to choose appropriate extracurricular activities and to identify a suitable career for them. The results obtained indicate a strong desire of parents to understand children's strengths using a digital application based on the content of the Theory of Multiple Intelligences, developed by Howard Gardner. The results of the study are useful for school principals, teachers, and researchers in the educational sciences.
