In this short-ish, sharp-ish inbetweener episode, The Occupational Philosophers explore a test for curiosity called The need for cognition (NFC)

What is the NFC? It's a personality variable reflecting the extent to which individuals are inclined towards effortful cognitive activities (thanks Wikipedia)

Whilst it has originally come in a longer format, the one that The Occupational Philosophers explore has 18 questions/statements. (Cacioppo & Petty, 1984)

Some of these include:

  • Thinking is not my idea of fun
  • I only think as hard as I have to
  • The idea of relying on thought to make my way to the top appeals to me..

They also explore:

  • Some classic lines from Oscar Wilde's last gig at the Brixton Academy
  • Empathic Curiosity - the desire to know others

Simon also felt happy he had discovered a big phrase -'Epistemic Curiosity'.

The Occupational Philosophers need to do some more exploration to provide a worthwhile link to this test. That will also be followed by links to Simon and John's scores.

Hope you enjoy the show!

FYI: The Inbetweeners episodes are just that - smaller episodes 'in between' the longer format episodes designed to give a little kickstart to enable you to be the most curious, creative and imaginative cat you can be - and have some fun in the process.
