Actively Open-Minded Thinking About Evidence Scale, AOT-E

Test scores

High scores indicate that the person endorses revising beliefs in light of new evidence, considering new possibilities, and not clinging to beliefs simply because they are established or identity-relevant. In the validation studies, higher AOT-E scores were associated with political liberalism, rejection of traditional moral values, greater acceptance of science, and lower endorsement of conspiratorial, paranormal, and religious claims.
