A facet of Openness
Openness to values measures your willingness to question the established: tradition, authority, inherited norms, and how open you are to ways of life and beliefs different from your own. It's the flexibility of your worldview.
You question the given and are open to other ways of seeing: few ideas are untouchable to you. The cost: sometimes you discard valuable traditions just for being traditions, and a lack of anchors can disorient.
You value the tested, the stable and the inherited: norms and traditions give you structure and meaning. The blind spot: sometimes you reject the new or the different before understanding it.
Questioning everything isn't mature open-mindedness and respecting tradition isn't closed-mindedness: they're two ways of relating to the established, and both carry wisdom. The key is whether your stance — open or firm — comes from thinking it through or from a reflex.
Where it shows. It shows up before a custom that's 'always been done this way', in how you react to different beliefs, in your relationship with authority, and in how much 'because that's how it's done' weighs in your decisions.
