好奇心（好奇心和对不同事物和人的接受）是一个人建立某种关系的主要动力，文献已经确定，与朋友保持良好的关系，家人和一般他人有助于繁殖和幸福。然而，关于好奇心是如何表现出繁殖力和幸福感的，我们知之甚少。我们假设好奇心是繁殖力和幸福感的基本决定因素，并沿着地实证检验了与认知、非认知和社会人口因素的关系。我们对400名日本受试者进行了问卷调查，对数据进行了分位数回归和结构方程建模。首先，分析确定了好奇心在表征生成性方面的重要性，因为具有高好奇心的人往往是生成性的。第二，人们被认为是快乐的，因为他们有高的生成性和好奇心，展示了两个有影响力的角色，好奇心作为直接和间接的决定因素，通过中介的生成性。总的来说，研究结果表明，好奇心应该是人们通过代际和代内沟通或关系获得幸福感的一个关键因素。
Inquisitiveness (curiosity & acceptance to something and someone different) is the main engine for one person to initiate some relation, and the literature has established that maintaining nice relationships with friends, family and general others contributes to generativity and happiness. However, little is known about how generativity and happiness are characterized by inquisitiveness. We hypothesize that inquisitiveness is a fundamental determinant for generativity and happiness, empirically examining the relationships along with cognitive, noncognitive and sociodemographic factors. We conduct questionnaire surveys with 400 Japanese subjects, applying quantile regression and structural equation modeling to the data. First, the analysis identifies the importance of inquisitiveness in characterizing generativity in that people with high inquisitiveness tend to be generative. Second, people are identified to be happy as they have high generativity and inquisitiveness, demonstrating two influential roles of inquisitiveness as direct and indirect determinants through a mediator of generativity. Overall, the results suggest that inquisitiveness shall be a key element of people’s happiness through intergenerational and intragenerational communications or relations.
