Episode notes
Curiosity can be categorized into two types: state curiosity and trait curiosity. State curiosity is characterized by a constant sense of wonder, where everything in the environment sparks questions and exploration. This form of curiosity is often inherent from a young age and reflects an innate drive to engage with the world. In contrast, trait curiosity is focused on specific topics or fields, revealing a deeper interest or obsession that drives individuals to seek answers about particular subjects, such as languages, mathematics, or human behavior. While both types of curiosity are valuable, trait curiosity is considered more trainable, suggesting that individuals can cultivate specific inquisitive interests over time.
