构建了一种调查能力的衡量标准，以区分不同人是否愿意探索各种经历。在两个研究中，类似于坚韧结构的挑战因素，该量表被用来探索探究性作为压力经历的调节因素的作用。在一项针对大学生的研究中，研究发现，探究性可以缓和负面生活经历和情绪障碍之间的关系，而感觉寻求这一同源变量却无法做到这一点。在第二项研究中，调查性与类风湿性关节炎相关的生理障碍、疼痛和功能障碍呈负相关。在回归分析中剔除了其他变量后，心理障碍和疼痛都与调查有关。另一方面，影响并不随关节炎的严重程度而变化，因此在本研究中，调查不能说缓和了关节炎症状的影响。
A measure of investigativeness was constructed that differentiates among people on their readiness to explore a variety of experiences. Similar to the challenge factor of the hardiness construct, the scale was used to explore the role of investigativeness as a moderator of stressful experiences in two studies. In one study with university students, investigativeness was found to moderate the relationship between negative life experiences and mood disturbance while sensation-seeking, a cognate variable, failed to do so. In the second study, investigativeness proved to be negatively related to the physiological disturbance, pain, and functional disability associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Both psychological disturbance and pain were associated with investigativeness after other variables were partialled out in a regression analysis. On the other hand, effects did not vary with severity of arthritis so that investigativeness cannot be said to have moderated the impact of arthritic symptomatology in this study.
