{{Cquote|Dogmatism has usually been related to low levels of openness to experience, the latter being an indicator of one's interest in new and non-traditional ideas. Dogmatism has mostly been studied in relation to religious beliefs but some recent research has looked at dogmatism among non-religious people. One surprising finding was that among self-identified atheists, higher levels of openness to experience were actually associated with greater dogmatism, contrary to the usual pattern. This suggests that the personality dimension openness to experience might not be a marker of open-mindedness as such but more of a preference for unconventional and complex ideas. Perhaps there needs to be a distinction made between humble versus arrogant forms of openness to experience.<ref>[https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/unique-everybody-else/201309/dogmatism-and-openness-experience-in-the-non-religious Dogmatism and Openness to Experience in the Non-Religious], ''Psychology Today'', 2013</ref>}}
