Our research on curiosity featured in Rutgers Today!

Our research is featured in this week’s Rutgers Today (https://www.rutgers.edu/news/just-enough-information-will-motivate-young-children-learn-drive-curiosity)! The study was published in the journal Psychological Science (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0956797621994230) by Jenny Wang, Assistant Professor in Psychology. The study showed that preschool children are more motivated to learn when they know just enough to find the topic interesting, but not too much that it becomes boring.
