What Does Honesty Mean? I Am Looking For The Definition Of It.

Honesty is the human quality of communicating and acting truthfully,
in accordance with a sense of fairness and sincerity. This includes all
varieties of communication, both verbal and non-verbal. Honesty implies
a lack of deceit. A statement can be strictly true and still be
dishonest if the intention of the statement is to deceive its audience.
Similarly, a falsehood can be spoken honestly if the speaker actually
believes it to be true.
Honesty can be displayed to others, and to oneself (see: self-deception).
Honesty is typically considered virtuous behavior, and has strong
positive connotations in most situations. A principal reason for this
may be that honesty simplifies communication, in that honest statements
can be trusted at face value, not necessarily as true, but as genuinely
believed. Additionally, honesty helps to form bonds of trust in human relationships.
Conversely, dishonesty can be defined simply as behavior that is performed with intent to deceive. Lying, lying by omission, fraud, and plagiarism are all examples of this sort of behavior.
While there are a great many moral systems, generally speaking,
honesty is considered moral and dishonesty is considered immoral. There
are several exceptions, such as hedonism, which values honesty only insofar as it improves ones own sense of pleasure, and moral nihilism,
which denies the existence of objective morality outright.
Additionally, even in moral systems which approve in general of honesty
over dishonesty, there are situations in which dishonesty may be
preferable. A common example is a "white lie," a lie which is told in a
situation where telling the truth would have served no purpose and
would have caused pain. While they are dishonest, the motivation behind
the deception is the avoidance of suffering, rather than personal gain
or the evasion of responsibility common in many other forms of
dishonesty, and so white lies often are viewed, if not as completely
moral, then at least less immoral than other types of lies.

Honesty is speaking truth and creating trust in minds of others. This includes all varieties of communication, both verbal and non-verbal. Honesty implies a lack of deceit. A statement can be strictly true and still be dishonest if the intention of the statement is to deceive its audience. Similarly, a falsehood can be spoken honestly if the speaker actually believes it to be true. Conversely, dishonesty can be defined simply as behavior that is performed with intent to deceive. Lying by commission, lying by omission, fraud, and plagiarism are all examples of this sort of behavior. Other examples can be doing one thing and telling the other, as if you are hiding something.

Two theories of honesty exist. First, the ‘‘Will’’ hypothesis in which honesty comes from the active resistance of temptation and links to the controlled cognitive processes that enable delay in regard to reward. Second, the “Grace” hypothesis in which honesty comes from the absence of temptation and links to research upon the presence or absence of automatic processes in determining behavior. Most ordinary people tend to favor the Will hypothesis. However, functional imaging and reaction time research supports the latter hypothesis since individuals that are honest in a situation in which they can lie showed no sign of engaging additional controlled cognitive processes.

The question of what is a proper basis for deciding how words, symbols, ideas and beliefs may properly be considered true, whether by a single person or an entire society, is dealt with by the five major substantive theories. Each theory presents perspectives that are widely shared by published scholars. There also have more recently arisen "deflationary" or "minimalist" theories of truth based on the idea that the application of a term like true to a statement does not assert anything significant about it, for instance, anything about its nature, but that the label truth is a tool of discourse used to express agreement, to emphasize claims, or to form certain types of generalizations.

According to Merriam-Wbster's dictionary, the definition of Honesty is: Fairness and straightforwardness of conduct, adherence to the facts.

Honesty is the human quality of communicating and the theater truthful. It is related to genuineness as a cost. This includes listening, and every action in the human repertoire — as well as dialogue.

Superficially, honesty means just, stating facts and views as most excellent one truly believes them to be. It includes both honesty to others, and to oneself and with reference to ones own motives and inner reality.

Quality of truthfulness applies to all behaviors, one cannot refuse to consider factual in sort, and for instance, in a neutral manner and still claim that one's knowledge, confidence or position is an attempt to be honest. Such a belief is clearly a product of one's desires and just has nothing to do with the human ability to know. Basing one's positions on what one wants — rather than unbiased evidence meeting — is lying even when good excellence intentions can be cited — after all yet villains could cite good intentions and designed glory for a pick cluster of people. Clearly then, an unbiased shift toward to the reality is a requirement of honesty.

Honesty....since you're in the category of love & relationships I'm guessing that's what you're asking therefore would be more like...When people are in a relationship what is honesty?Then honesty is telling someone you love them and truely meaning it. So they wouldn't go and cheat on you...It's when you tell the complete truth, no lies. That's what I think honesty is.

It means the total truth about something.
