Abstract: We explored the link between curiosity and well-being among a group of 18-25 year old emerging adults. There were 578 participants (286 males, 292 females), and the Cronbach's alphas ranged from .70-.90. The results suggested a significant link between cognitive and sensory curiosity and well-being (17% of variance explained).
