Abstract
The present study was an attempt to validate a scale of academic curiosity. An 80-item true-false self-report scale was constructed containing items that seemed to reflect curiosity of an academic nature and correlated with two measures of intelligence. The reliability and construct validity of the scale are supported by the data.
