Developing and testing inhibitors of curiosity in the workplace with the Curiosity Code Index (CCI)
1Forbes School of Business, United States.
Abstract:
A new tool was created to assess the factors that inhibit curiosity in working adults. The Curiosity Code Index (CCI) measures four factors that inhibit curiosity: fear, assumptions, technology, and environment. The validity of the CCI was evaluated using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The factor analysis with Varimax Rotation indicated a Cronbach α of .85 for fear, .68 for assumptions, .86 for technology, and .75 for environment. Although there are other tools that measure whether individuals are curious or open to experience, there are no tools that measure these four factors that inhibit curiosity. The results indicate that the CCI is a valid tool.
