About

Intellectual honesty is a form of honesty. At a minimum, it requires both of the following:

  • being honest to others about your thinking (e.g. your real reasons for holding a particular position)
  • being honest with yourself about what the available evidence indicates

It is possible to be honest without being intellectually honest.
