Accepting the fact that we may be in error ourselves and maintaining the goal of getting at the truth rather than trying to please others or find fault with their views.

• A. Healthy Skepticism
• B. Courage
• C. Oath of Enlistment
• D. Accurate Information

Answer: (A)

This item tests a mindset of questioning and truth-seeking. It means you acknowledge you could be mistaken and stay focused on finding the truth rather than trying to please others or defend someone’s viewpoint. Practically, this involves inviting evidence, examining assumptions, considering alternatives, and being willing to adjust your thinking when new information emerges. Courage, while important for facing challenges, does not specifically describe this ongoing habit of evaluating and revising beliefs. The Oath of Enlistment sets duties and loyalties but isn’t about how you approach evaluating information. Accurate information is about the quality of data itself, not the approach you take to determine what’s true. Healthy skepticism uniquely captures the idea of remaining open to the possibility of error while pursuing the best understanding.
