Suspension of judgment
ID: suspension-of-judgment
Suspension of judgment refers to a mental state or cognitive practice where an individual consciously decides to withhold judgment or refrain from making a definitive conclusion about a particular subject, issue, or situation. This concept is often discussed in the context of philosophy, ethics, and critical thinking. In philosophical terms, particularly in the context of skepticism, suspension of judgment (or epoché) involves refraining from making assertions about the truth or falsity of a claim, particularly when faced with ambiguous or conflicting evidence.
