Publikation Being Snoopy and Smart: The Relationship between Curiosity, Fluid Intelligence, and Knowledge(Hogrefe, 2022) Hartung, Freda-Marie; Thieme, Pia; Wild-Wall, Nele; Hell, BenediktCuriosity is a basic driver for learning and development. It has been conceptualized as a desire for new information and knowledge that motivates people to explore their physical and social environment. This raises the question of whether curiosity facilitates the acquisition of knowledge. The present study ( N = 100) assessed epistemic curiosity and general knowledge as well as fluid intelligence (i.e., reasoning ability, processing speed, memory) in a student sample. The results indicate that epistemic curiosity is moderately related to knowledge ( r = .24) and reasoning ability ( r = .30). None of the fluid intelligence measures did moderate the relationship between curiosity and knowledge (interaction terms β < |.08|). Rather, reasoning ability mediated the relationship between epistemic curiosity and general knowledge (indirect effect: β = .10, p < .05). The findings suggest that epistemic curiosity facilitates the acquisition of knowledge by promoting reasoning. One might speculate that epistemically curious individuals enrich their environment, which in turn enhances their cognitive ability.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation Studie «Personalentwicklung im Wandel» Digitalisierungsschub dank Covid(WEKA, 2022) Nido, Miriam; Schneider, Lena; Hell, Benedikt01B - Beitrag in Magazin oder ZeitungPublikation KI als das neue Heilsversprechen?
