Abstract
This article develops and defends a full account of the nature and normativity of resistance to evidence, according to which resistance to evidence is an instance of input‐level epistemic malfunctioning. At the core of this epistemic normative picture lies the notion of knowledge indicators, as evidential probability increasing facts that one is in a position to know; resistance to evidence is construed as a failure to uptake knowledge indicators.
