Open:

What is the quality of being open?

Human systems including personal and social are open or closed systems. An open system allows input and output and a closed system is already defined. People are said to be open or closed. In that case, a person who allows a free flow of input into their personal system would be considered open.

Lindblom


Openness involves active imagination, aesthetic sensitivity, attentiveness to inner feelings, preference for variety, and intellectual curiosity.
