Etymology
Mindedness comes from mind (an old English word for 'thought' or 'memory') plus -ed and -ness which turn it into the 'state' or 'quality' of being a certain way. So mindedness means the quality or state of having a particular attitude, as in open-mindedness when someone is open to new ideas.
