communicativeness

Willingness to share

Communicativeness is the quality of being willing and able to share information, thoughts, or feelings freely.

A child's communicativeness might delight parents; a suspect's communicativeness might surprise detectives.

The word can describe both a personality trait and a temporary state: Her communicativeness faded as the interview turned hostile.
