    I would say since you mention the word “exhibit” that you are talking about independence in APPEARANCE – for which you will find the definition here https://opentuition.com/topic/objectivity-and-independence

    The characteristics are therefore INTEGRITY, OBJECTIVITY or professional skepticism – you will find these terms further explained in the notes and lecture (see ethics chapter).

    The characteristics (plural – i.e. more than one) are integrity and objectivity.
