( 2009) found that the answers to high curiosity-inducing trivia questions were more likely to be recalled than for low curiosity-inducing trivia questions 2 weeks later. While scientific interest in curiosity has persisted for decades (e.g., Berlyne, 1950, 1960 Gruber, Gelman, & Ranganath, 2014 Henderson & Moore, 1980 Hutt, 1970 Loewenstein, 1994 Kang et al., 2009), only recently has empirical work shown that curiosity is associated with better learning outcomes (e.g., Gruber et al., 2014 Kang et al., 2009 Reio & Wiswell, 2000 Stahl & Feigenson, 2015). Curiosity is considered a strong motivator of learning.
