I think that intentionally faking a level of psychological development is only possible in the opposite direction.
I think one of the article's premises is that they don't exist in our culture. That said, from what I've seen, this author's ideas seem to connect up well with the Brights group: http://www.the-brights.net/vision/essays/dennett_nyt_article... Those people do work in this vein and have published books. (I'm not sure how active that group is; I include it only as a pointer to dig up authors.)
People want to learn about the world around them, STEM or not. What stops that learning from happening is mostly internal: a fear of looking dumb, a fear of being proven wrong before peers, etc.
If we can teach people to be humble, change their mind when faced with new evidence, etc, I think the rest comes naturally.
