Two factors(Closed-mindedness and Discomfort with Ambiguity) were used to measure a participant’s needfor cognitive closure (Webster & Kruglanski, 1994). The other four factors were used to probe aparticipant’s epistemic beliefs in engineering (Ferguson & Braten, 2013; Greene et al., 2010; Yu& Strobel, 2012). Table 1
