Studied contribution of HEXACO and boredom proneness to creativity and curiosity. Openness to Experience was the strongest HEXACO predictor of creativity. Openness to Experience was a significant predictor of every curiosity measure. Controlling for HEXACO, boredom proneness positively predicted two curiosity scales. Results suggest that interventions for boredom proneness should leverage curiosity.
