adulthood, where individuals develop from an absolutist to a multiplist to an evaluative view
of knowledge and knowing (Kuhn, 1991; Mason & Scirica, 2006). At the absolutist level,

individual has his/her own views. At the evaluatist level, there are shared models of knowing
with some positions being more justified than others.
