Title: THE CURIOSITY AND EXPLORATION INVENTORY: STRUCTURE AND RELIABILITY
Author: Vladimira CAVOJOVA, Tomas SOLLAR
Abstract: The present article deals with the psychological construct of curiosity and introduces the Curiosity Exploration Inventory (CEI) devised by the American authors Kashdan, Rose and Fincham (2004). The CEI originated as reaction to unsatisfactory methods measuring curiosity. The article refers to several foreign studies concerning curiosity and results of verification of structure and reliability of the CEI in two Slovak samples - 88 college students (average age = 22.59) and 157 school children (average age = 9.31). Results show that the CEI measures two distinct but related components of curiosity, Exploration and Absorption, and its reliability is deemed satisfactory.
