Intellectual behavior is the thought process that influences the outcome of scholarly research. The scholar who is dedicated to intellectual integrity is an explorer of the unknown. When his/her research leads them to an outcome, the scholar embraces the outcome based on the premises on which their own scientific standards are rooted. The behavior of the scholar whose research is based on objectivity will accept the research outcome as irrefutable, even if the outcome is unpleasant or varies from the assumptions at the initiation of the research. The correct answer is B.
