Curiosity Quotient

Filed under: Reflections, Thinking — dorai @ 10:05 am

I was reading Jay Cross’s Insatiable Curiosity yesterday. It got me thinking about curiosity, in general. I went to Google for help. I tried to search for “curiosity quotient” but did not have much luck. So I broadened the search to “quotient”.

I came upon the following interesting ones.

IQ Page on Wikipedia. Following this, I found Flynn Factor which I did not know about. It was interesting to read about IQ Correlations.

To my surprise, Weired Quotient came up on top of the search. I am scared to take this test, afraid that my WQ may be a bit too high.

Social Quotient looked interesting. There is even a test from SELF magazine. Probably worth investigating.

Emotional Quotient (EQ) was the next interesting one. I had heard about it earlier. I think I even took a test once.

Charisma Quotient seemed interesting. But the link did not lead to anything interesting. So I let it go.

Nutritional Quotient is about your health and nutrition. Since I was munching on something not very healthy, I passed on that one.

By the time I got to Perseverance Quotient , I lost the perseverance to go on. I decided to get back to work.

After about 15 minutes and several links later, I decided that this topic deserves more time. I will come back to this later.

Mar 10, 2008: I came across Leadership Quotient.
