Assumptiveness

/əˈsʌmpʃəvnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality of being inclined to assume or take things for granted without sufficient evidence or proof.

Etymology

From assumptive (from Latin assumere, 'to take up') plus -ness suffix. The word evolved from the verb assume meaning to take upon oneself or to suppose something is true.

Kelly Says

Assumptiveness is the opposite of curiosity—it's when your brain auto-fills answers instead of asking questions. Interestingly, research shows our brains are wired to make assumptions because it's faster and uses less energy, which is why we all struggle with it naturally.
