The Intellectual Integrity Scale measures the disposition of striving for honesty when evaluating differing viewpoints for the sake of learning the truth or reaching the best decision. A person with intellectual integrity has a driving desire to get at the truth and to follow reasons and evidence courageously wherever they may lead. High scorers value the fair-minded pursuit of best knowledge, and value the opportunity to hear people's point of view. Low scores  are indicative of a significant failure to express ethical values and scholarly integrity typical of the ethical professional or the legal studies scholar. Midrange scores indicate ambivalent endorsement of intellectual integrity. A concern about intellectual dishonesty would be an apt flag suggested by a low score on this scale.
